Yes! ANOTHER change!

[Joe Mumma]

I really liked how the index was ran this past weekend, and from what I heard the racers liked it too.

So this is the new plan and we will see how it goes.

Indexes will be run like Brackets except with a .400 Pro tree. Your dial-in is your index whether its 5.50 to 7.50. You will all make time trials together, then in eliminations we use the wheel to determine lane choice and who races who.

This made it where there is no class that only has 2 or 3 cars....I don't like that, spectators don't like that and surly you guys who race want to make more than one or two rounds?? I know I hated winning when I only beat one guy! LOL Not much to brag about.

This will also help the payout be higher. We will still charge $50 to enter, $20 buy backs in 1st or 2nd round.

Payout will be:
50% winner
25% R/u
10% semi each

So for example we had 8 cars Saturday, that was $400. So it was
$200 win
$100 ru
$50 semi

If we ever have a day when there is 7 or 8 cars with one index we can run you guys like a normal index class if you choose. But no more 3 or 4 car classes, it just doesn't work for anyone.

[Joe Mumma]

One point I need to be more specific....your dial in is either 5.50, 6.0, 6.50, 7.0, or 7.50!

[Joe Mumma]

The next change is on Bracket nights. In attempt to make them more profitable, payout will be 90% and split like this:

90% PAYBACK SPLIT:
50% WIN
20% R/U
20% SEMI (10% EACH)

I know some wont like it, but the car count cant get much lower!

Joe.. Just keep the track open.. Hoping to get my car back together and race there again. I never make it to the pay window anyway... LOL

All looks good to me and combineing the indexes was fun and made the payout good so I looked forward to doing it again and should make the program move faster on outlaw night and that should bring more cars because I have heard that is why some aren't comeing with it being very late before the races are over I think this should bring the index racers because this is an excellent purse

When are we suppose to start racing? During the heat of the day around noon or 4-5 am?

Joe's races have been ending "early", most of these types of races are normally over after midnight on average, no matter where you go...

The heat in the daytime is what is killing Tulsa right now amoung other things. Thats why I feel you shouldnt start running till around 6 so the track can cool off and racers can put on a better show for the spectators.

[jimmy]

I don't have a problem with the start time or anything else whatever we have to do is fine with me was just making a comment that this is what I've hears from some people on why they aren't coming and thaught I would throw it out there

[Joe Mumma]

I dont think I have ever made a final at Tulsa, Cville or Ozark....but I am old! LOL

We do TNT on the 1st and 3rd Fridays, but we do TNT every Saturday we are open and you get as many passes as you can make! We try to run TNT between each class.

Fridays we try to start racing around 6-630. Saturdays we try to start racing around 5-530.
