That was the best one yet Webmaster Todd and those cartoons are the honest truth. So is that true if Partin gets the points lead he will have strippers in the pit ?

Excellent use of “what the christ?” and I was really looking forward to a two day doubleheader of sprint cars.
I thought we finally turned the corner here in this state, but I guess not.
No Rick leave it to a few that get on the computer and stir it up, and then screw it up for the rest of the drivers and owners . You finally have a track that wants to do something for sprintcars and the politics and B/S screwed it once again. Let me guess there is two sides of the story of course but the ending remains the same.. Drivers and Owners lose !!! NO RACES. Sorry Guys ….

What? No Marmaduke? Very well done Todd.
Hey Lou, can you explain how the computer screwed up the Showtime races?
I’m not a follower but Facebook,Twitter,ect. Yoho got pissed off with all the bashing and pulled the plug. Once again there is always two sides of the story but it always has the same ending. Just feel sorry for all the guys that have sprntcars and want to race and want this asphalt racing to take back off.

Lou i didnt see any bashing of showtime just the? of why the purse was cut so much. But its his track and he said sprints didnt bring the crowd he expected. I was there for the first two races and the place couldnt hold anymore. Just me thought it was really sorry to cut so much off the back end of purse
I’m with Ric. I only made it to one of the Showtime sprint car races and that place could not have physically held more people it was so packed, so that excuse doesn’t hold any water with me.
The social media complaining doesn’t jive with me either. If that was the case, no track in the state would be holding races because all that most people do is get on message boards, Facebook, Twitter, etc. and complain.
Ric an Todd you are right about the crowd, however the place is the same when the sprints aren’t there. That being said sometimes you have to take a little bad with the good for the best outcome. The sprints could have a great future at showtime hopefully they don’t blow it.
Like I said there are always two sides of the story didn’t make sence to me either. Just letting you know what the rumor mill said !!

There are two kinds of sprintcar racers, those who love to race and those who come to collect money. If showtime had not cancelled the races there would have been 12 or more cars there ready to race. that would have been a great race.
“Two kinds of sprintcar racers”? Sorry, I don’t buy that. We all love it, but we should’t be expected to take the gut shot of a sudden and significant pay cut. Things need to settle at an agreeable level.
Mr. Green no disrespect but we all love to race but not all have unlimited funds and a purse cut like that hurts all racers not just the ones out to collect money. If the pay out isnt why you race then split your winnings up through the field. And since your the new tbara vp whats the purse for next race for tbara. This is what everyone bitched about when citrus try to do their purse for sprint at 4500.00 same pay as showtime and now he is the savior of florida racing funny i think but everyone has a opinion. But if tbara pays 100.00 to start i think the field will be light. Well see at the races just to collect your money i mean my money till next time stay safe and dry today
Taylor you said it best yu take the good with the bad and try to make the best of it. rick you are wrong yohos purse for the 2day show was 12000.00 split in half,no heats 25lap feature each night 1000 to win each race. he was trying to get yall in front of a diff crowd figure 8 mania and try to get some new fans behind ya cuz the old ones dont seem to be coming out of the woods to see ya like they have in the past maybe the next race he has if there is one he should make it invatation only that sure would give someone something to bitch about now wouldn’t it.the man put up 22000.00 for the last 2 races held at showtime i don’t think there is any other tracks doing the same thing just saying you have a track 20minutes from tampa that is perfect for sprints you don’t need a big motor you can get there in a short time what would some of ya’ll rather do haul to the panhandle nope that’s right they don’t want you neitheR??? BTW good job on the cartoon webmaster
Tony then that is what should be posted on website for track. None of us are mind readers cause if we were then there wouldnt have been any ? on what was being paid. Yes i know he paid alot for the first two shows i applaued him for that. If he does invite only that is up to him. Info should get out not have people guessing i know he is doing good for sprints. And yes its a great track for us but needs to communicate better to all not just his pals
12000.00 2 days still paid 100.00 to start and that is the bottom line. All the haters talked crap about you tony now its wrong to state something sorry peoples feelings got hurt but others said something about it or he would have had the show and seen how many showed just my opionion
Ric you are correct his communication levels could be a lot better and he is working on that.rdv69 do you thing that Ilost any sleep over trying to help sprint cars last year,heck no i’m a scab remember lmao that’s why me and miller dished out over 12000.00 of are own money last year trying to help the sport.and Inever said that it was wrong to state anything.and Idon’t no who you are talking about as far as feelings getting hurt cuz mine are just fine it’s all good
Ok tc well heres to better communication and see if things work out. I know what you and shane did and i supported you 110% if you recall. That makes me a scab too
WOW T-MAN talk about putting it out there my brother, just calling it like it is LMAO. If you had a radio station you would put Bubba the Luv Sponge on the unemployment line !! Thats what I like put the truth out there but no one is going to go for it cause it’s the truth. Why not change it around since everyone is bitching about the pay out and cost switch to non-wing racing. Less stress on the motor don’t need tires for every race, so you could do a 800.00 to win with 100.00 to start or something like that. To many of the asphalt owners/drivers think they have to have 1,000.00 to win 200.00 to start. Times have changed gas use to be a dollar a gallon now it’s 3.70 if there is no asses in the stands then how you expect the track to pay the purse? O next said would be get sponsors to help with the purse. Thats B/S cause if sponsorship was easy drivers/owners would have them and you wouldn’t care what it paid cause your sponsor is footing the bill. I’m sorry and not trying to be disrespectful but if it don’t rain were at Eastbay racing and the week after that Ocala and then a week off, then we go for 6 weeks straight. Guys there has to be a happy medium some where so you can get a schdule and payout that everyone is happy with or your cars will be better planters for a flower garden than a race car !!
