TRP Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 (edited) We've been contacted by a sponsor that requested to remain anonymous. The sponsor is adding $1,000 to the modified purse on April 26th. We're getting the word out early so folks can plan, but here is how the sponsor requests that the additional Grand be divided in the field. 1st place will pay $800 as normal provided by the track. The additional $1,000 will be added from 2nd up to 24th for mods starting the feature. It will be a max of 24 qualifying for the feature, if we have more cars than that. The $1,000 will be divided equally among any mods starting the feature from 2nd back. So, for example, if 21 mods start the feature, the $1,000 will be added equally from 2nd - 21st, which would equate to $50 extra per position and end up being a minimum of $100 to start for the feature. If we have 24 start the feature, it will be divided by 23 for 2nd - 24th... We want to say a huge thank you to the sponsor and we will respect the request of the sponsor to remain anonymous. We'll remind of the purse increase after this weekend, but wanted to get the early word out. Edited April 15, 2008 by TRP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRP Posted April 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 (edited) Ok.... It's time for me to start reminding of the extra cash in the mods for Saturday night. Remember the extra $1,000 will be added equally from 2nd back for cars starting the feature, with a max of 24 starting the feature. You can see the normal payout for mods at Texana on www.texanaracewaypark.org. Go to Drivers tab and the regular payout will be there. Just add the extra money to the regular payout. Generally, speaking you can expect approximately $100 if you qualify for the feature and make at least one lap to get scored in the feature.

How far is the coast from there? Reb - Track is about 20 miles (as the crow flies from the bay). Closest real beach is Magnolia Beach and there's a man-made beach in Port Lavaca. Palacios is not very far either. Call me if you head down our way. Media gets VIP treatment. Edited April 21, 2008 by TRP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelracewriter Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 I think I stayed at a Bodett Hilton in Port Lavaca when I was in a big poker tourney in Victoria last year....I've slept once or twice since then. Is that where the bird sanctuary is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
