Re: LODRS payout increases ideas
Great Idea but, increasing the entry fee's is not the answer and you will only push away racers, no matter what the payouts are. With the lower class quotas at Nationals in a few years all you will see if the professional sportsman racers at events with maybe a few guys who run a national here and there and have enough grade points. If you want to look into something to be done it needs to be on the National Event side. The entry fee has gone up significantly over the past years with no pay increase to the winner. Contingency has gone way down (Yes it supposed to be better this year). I pulled out an entry form from the 1994 Keystone Nationals a few weeks back and it was $170 to get in for $1,800 to win, now it's $320 for $1,800 but, you have an event like Mike Beard or Myself put on and we take a bath in it......go figure.
