This not meant to be a negative post about any certain tracks because I have seen it at a few......
Someone please explain to me why a track cannot have payouts sitting in envelopes so racers can get paid before the racing is over and the people have all gone home?
Go to the bank on Friday afternoon, take out 5k or 6k dollars and put it in to envelopes by class and finishing position. You know usually an hour before the racing starts how many cars are in each class for the night. Once the race is over and the cars go through tech and the techman ok's the finish PAY THE DRIVERS!!!!!!!! I know about the "cash business" yada yada BS.
We raced last night at 7:30, we had the first race, We were done at 7:45, we also raced in the second race and we were loaded up at 8:20. The races were over at 10:30, the payout lady, who also works the pit office (why I don't know)was WAITING for money at 10:30. The pay window opened at 11:00. And it isn't just NSS. I have had the same issue at Auburndale.
Someone please fix this.........
Now the treaded tires.......while I understand the concept and applaude the thoughts of cheaper for the racers, I have to say the experiment is a disaster. Now I am speaking about racing at NSS and I know it is faster and all that, but the races have become practice. When the faster cars are running together, you cannot pass. Inside or outside. My father runs sportsman and we watched the e-mod race last night. A faster car can get to and drive under or around another car but cannot complete the pass because the tires just won't hold the track. If you drive harder in you lose the front end, if you have to keep a car down because the car is outside of you coming off they give up there also. And come to find out, they are MORE EXPENSIVE and don't last any longer. The only thing that made the e-mod race half way interesting is they had about 8 restarts. The big motor mods are a complete joke, it has destroyed that class. They need to let the big motor mods go back to slicks and let them put on wings and whatever they want to make them interesting. Again, the emods are a great concept and my dad is actually trying to put one together, but the racing would be better if they went back to slicks. Now they might be better at Auburndale and Citrus and if that is the case, more power to em.
Just my two cents.......thats about all I got these days!!!!!!
