I don't have a problem with the pro's making more money. I think it is stupid that they can be #1 qualifier win the show and set a record, and even if nothing blows up or crashes, they cant even come close to paying for the weekend with their prize money. The only problem I have is that a pro can lay 5 gallons of oil from start to finish and they don't get hit in the wallet, but we do. The oil down policy started with THEM not us! I think it should end with them also!

Now that we have the freebie, I'd rather concentrate my efforts on other topics. But, you have to admit Rock, suspending the fines JUST FOR THE PROS is a little underhanded. They already get 1 freebie PER EVENT. We get 1 freebie PER YEAR, yet they get to have their fines suspended and not us too?
Granted, there's little chance that any of us will deposit fluid on the track twice in one season (which is why I'm OK with us moving on to another topic), but it still sucks. Unless the rules are different for the alcohol cars (which I don't think they are), they're probably 100 times more annoyed about this than we are. Now, go get us more money!

CBS,
I don't mean any dis-respect, but the thread is about the oil down policy, and if after 12 posts you think it is time to move on that's fine, but their might be other people that have an opinion. I personally would like to hear comments against my opinion to shed some light on it, maybe I am looking at this all wrong?? |

Personally I think the ONLY sportsman racers that should be responsible for oil downs is TAD & TAFC! They KILL RACES that are ahead of schedule everytime (Norwalk Saturday example) In fact TAD &TAFC should have there fines double every time they do it in the same weekend, begining with $250 first offense.......That might force some of these guys to actually put good parts in their motors....
JUST MY OPINION...... |

Being on the council and listening to everyone bitch I am sure is getting annoying, but I know that we are all happy that you guys got us the freebie. Maybe if they let us clean up our own mess at the Carolinas while they use the other 2 lanes, they wont hit us with the fine.
