I wouldn't care whose pocket the buyback goes in as long as the 5k ends up in mine! I'm not a fan of buybacks but this is still a good deal.

Terry i agree, but to pay this purse they will need the BB money. Each class needs 81 cars to pay the purse. With BB that will knock that number down considerably.

You only need 46 cars to make the payout.

And 38 cars if 15 buys back.

At an NHRA National Event, it takes 10 cars! LOL Well, 12 in Super Stock. :rolleyes:

Greg you're right. I guess I'm dumber than a 5th grader.LOL
Even with that though with the car counts both sanctions are having that may be tough. In some classes.

I guess I'm missing something. What wouild be so wrong with IHRA paying a GAURANTEED $5,000 to win AND making a few bucks? Are they only entitled to break even? They're aren't a non-profit, you know...LMAO...

As my father used to say, some people would bitch if they were hung with a new rope...

What Dan said.

I'll bet if NHRA had Buybacks and cratemotors everyone of you would have a cratemotor and the buyback line would be so long you would think J-lo was giving free lap dances.

They will need to have twice as many buy back as they lost by having buybacks. So is it worth it?

Re: Class Racer.com teams with IHRA for Summit Racing Equipm
 

I think it's worth it too...the blue collar (IHRA) sanctioning body is providing some very good tasting water (out there), but it's up to us to come out and drink it. My only regret is that it's on the east coast, and thus too far away from me. However, it makes me look forward even more to next weekends Nitro Jam race in Salt Lake City, because this races payout is bigger than it was last year, and the support is growing too. Besides, that other HRA has been lately charging $305 bucks to race for less than 2grand (w/o contingencies), and even with the buyback you're still saving 5 bucks over the other HRA!. Come on guys, it takes two to tangle, and the IHRA's willing to dance, but we need to be willing to do it too...I'll do my dancing next week, how about you east coast racers there???

Jeff,
I would expect more support from you on the BB, after all you come from the Home of the BB.
