What Has Happened to Sprint car Racing
Blog Submitted by Woroutracer on 08/03/2009 at 11:41 AM Report Blog

Ok, here's the deal. Last night I went to Husets to watch what was suppose to be a Allstar show. C'mon I was there both nights and the best they could do was I think maybe 5 to 8 so called "Allstars" Not only is that a joke! but I paid to see big names that follow the circuit. Also The Weather is getting bad so they shorten the race from 40 laps to 30, this race was promoted as an Allstar race and $10,000.00 to win a 40 lap A main. I'm not just bagging on the Allstars here, think about it, you go to a WOO race, pay $30.00 to watch 100% of your local weekly racers (that you pay $12.00 to see) and a handful of true WOO teams. Oh, yeah, Terry McCarl won the "Allstar" A main, from the front row???? He finished 4th in his heat, but started on the poll??? He was fast time...But Gary Wright equaled his fast time and wasn't on the front row? Hmmmmm. McCarl can show up on the $10,000.00 to win night, but not the $5,000.00 to win night. I think there should be a new rule for all large Sprint car races! For a 2 day show, you must run night 1 to be eligible for the large purse on night 2, or your winnings will be cut in half. I use to be a T-Mac fan, but after getting screwed last year at the front row challenge I have serious doubts about his agenda. Once again, I paid $30.00 to see very few "cars & stars" just a bunch of beads being thrown into the crowd. You wanna see the best show on dirt! Go to any Knoxville weekly show, and for $12.00 you will see over 60 cars, plus some so called WOO drivers, So called Allstar drivers, and some very fast guys that don't claim to be anything except good hard, limited budget, racers!!!! Fact is, you can go to most local shows anywhere and see better racing for $8.00 to $12.00 bucks. Just so you know, I full time RV and go to many sprint car shows! But what has happened to 30 & 40 car counts. I know it's the Economy, then why charge me for what I am not getting? If you put the WOO,the Allstars, and any other organization you can think of, you can't get 20 top notch teams. I don't blame the economy, the tracks still draw large crowds paying $25.00 to $30.00 per head! I blame us for paying to see locals, that I could see next week for $12.00. I blame tracks for promoting and charging for something we the fans are not getting!!!!! Like I said, WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO SPRINT CAR RACING!  I hope after you read this you will stand up and be heard, and ask to get what you pay for! Husets, it's been nice, but I have seen my last race at your track.WOO,Allstars, I am done paying my money to see 5 big names, and 3 so called Allstars I have never heard of! Audios! Local tracks and racers here I come!!!!
