It is complete payback from the 100 dollar entry

1,500 to win + 700 to RU + 300 for semis X2 + 100 for Quarters X 4 =3,200 total

I know a lot of people compare to Atco. I myself run a lot of the money races at atco. Why wouldnt they its a top notch facility that runs top notch races. Not to mention IMHO its the toughest bracket racing in the country. That being said I have never been to an atco race where you can win 1,500 dollars for going 5 rounds. I have been down to the 7th and 8th round of a few money races and not gotten more than 6 or 7 hundred dollars. Thats with a race that averages 3-400 cars + buyback money. Even there superbucks races are 300 dollars a round I believe starting with 3rd round loser. So 6th round looser gets 1,200 dollars. Thats on a 350 dollar entry fee and thats only if the race goes 9 rounds.

My question is what do people realistically see as being worth their while? Is there a certain number that you would travel for?
