Doesn't matter what the payout is, 75% - 80% of the racers at ANY event go home with ZERO. Racing doesn't make financial sense, PERIOD. You either enjoy racing, or you don't.

I would be interested in poll results if tracks went to trophy only.With your logic,why should they payout anything?

Don't need a poll out here. Bandimere has a class with about 400 entries and NO payout! Trophies only. No payout, no problem here,

Wow,that is fascinating.
I guess I would race for a trophy with a street car,but I think I would park my race car if I was only going to race for a trophy.
I might race for a National event trophy if I didn't have any,but that's about it.
If the track had trophy only,each entry should kick in $10 into a pot and there is $4,000 that could be split up to the finalists.

What class is it? I'm looking at their website.

I used to race a Tuesday night gamblers race. $45 to enter. $10 for every entry going to the winner.

I did well considering I have a cut up shyt box. Won more than the car is worth every year. Granted I don't really have a towing fee. Im a mile to the track that I am banned from from for posting a in picture on FB because the owner is an assh0le. So my cars sit.


The other winners had nothing special and some would know their names. One of them is ½ mile from the track with plenty of foot brake wins. One of them won a million dollar race. One has plenty of wins and has a School. That was when racing was fun.

Now that is just sad. "Fun" in the past tense. Take care. Tom Worthington
