You know me I usually dont complain but this is wrong!

I don't T&T often but it would be nice that if I lost early and wanted to test other settings, etc. I could jump in the T&T lane. Looks like my Friday night racing at QCMP might become my Sunday racing at Mag.
I think this might be the first decision the new management made that I don't agree with.

So if a $20 tnt gets the 2 time runs and is called to match the gamblers race, lets say 6 rounds, they get 8 runs for $20 or the expense of $2.50 per run for the track time. A $35 entry that is lucky to be 1 of 2 at the 6th round is at the expense of $4.37 per run.

To break it down for losers by round based on entry fee only:

1st: $11.66
2nd: $8.75
3rd: $7.00
4th: $5.83
5th: $5.00

Obviouslt the figure changes with the deduction of round money, semi, runner up and win based on the car count.

To match cost per run for TNT based on a 6 round gambler, the race entry would have to have enough cars for $10 round money, win 2nd and 3rd round(losing 4th) to be at $2.50 per run.

cooled down now
Sorry Greg nothing personal..... I will talk to you later tonight.

prayers sent out to jerry donnel .

any word?

What happened to jerry donnel?

so if I understand this correctly based on the information on the website, it would cost me $50 to test and tune after losing in the gamblers race. Wow, kinda sucks for a guy that might be working on some different combinations. I had thought at first that T and T was $25 and for an extra $10 you could get in the gamblers race. Guess I will have to make a few decisions regarding my Friday night racing or T&T.

Jerrys car rolled over 3 times tonight. They got him out of the car, was alert, took him to the hospital in the ambulance. Havent heard any updates other than that.

If a racer was "working on some different combinations" they would be best served by just testing and not entering a gamblers race. Any decent bracker racer knows you don't try different stuff while you are trying to win a race where consistency is of the utmost importance.

he is ok. He is one good racer.

thinking of jerry. prayers for him & his family. any updates on his condition?

word i got last is he is ok,just went to get checked out.car didnt fair to well..
