rebelracewriter Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Tex, after last years piss poor turnout for the $100,000 Altel 100 I'm surprised to see Mooney Star is even offering that much for the mods this year. The show went from nearly 400 mods the first year to less than 100 the second. Proves the point that IF THE RACERS DON'T THINK IT'S GOOD, FAIR SHOW THEY WON'T SUPPORT IT!

97car Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 From what I remember reading the track basically brought in some ringers with a gauranteed start in the feature.I may be wrong,but that is what I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelracewriter Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 97car, from what I was told, in the first year drivers "believed" the deck was stacked for Bloomquist to win.......and he did. He had lapped up to fourth place, and probably could have lapped the field IF he had really been trying. Whether it was or wasn't, that's how drivers "percieved" it.

supertx Posted January 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 They did several things that pissed people off.They gave some of the big names a starting spot in the A- main without them having to earn it it was like 6 or 7 people. the format was screwed up to make it to the a-main because of the favortism.Maybe they learned there lesson and they will run a straight show we will probally guilty of frinding out .
