A one day race will be a bust IMO

The original schedule I printed off in April has it as a two day race $10000.00 to win Sat and $5000.00 to win Sunday.

Jason, megabucks has been dead for years! We haven't had one since the track reopened. So yes, I think these races we have had for the last couple years are the new megabucks.

Who do we need to show the Tenn Tuck, old Megabucks, Byron Big Bucks, etc flyers to so they know what a racer is looking for in a big $ race. A 1 day deal isn't it. Luckily its an hour from my house, so I'll probably be there. Half of the normal GMP crowd won't go because of the cost and they aren't going to pull many "non-regulars" like myself for a one day deal. What does that leave them with? 50 entries maybe?

Not sure what their thought process is Chris, but many of us have brought this up with them many times. There are a lot of the big money races having a lot of success right now and with the facility they have, there is no reason they could not put on a premium race. They have no interest or they would have by now.

They show signs of wanting the place to be a top notch racing facility Then like a drunk person fall off their chair and bump their heads do totally opposite of what they need to do I like a lot of other racers just as soon as sit it out watch the craziness run rampant One thing for sure It can't go much further of pissing racers fans off |

Dennis you are so wrong. JMO Not sure why they won't take a risk but it's not a train wreck No I'm not wrong You think everything all Rosie n great Well they only Reason gmp has had a good year in brackets is because these other tracks can't run due to weather an re building issues Havana be lucky to have a racing surface with the flood waters under that track Gmp has done nothing spectacular except open and it's been tumultuous at best Hair pulling at the least I just happen to be the only guy who stand and tell you I see what other guys post what they say about GMP Not on here so obviously you want to put out all the good you can Hell I'd love to put out great things about the track not let a few bumps deter from It But hey you gotta put on a good face Somebody does There was a time I felt just as you do The track couldn't do wrong Even when it screwed up But after so much I like others can just sit at Home go to car shows not have to put up with crap I'm an outsider so I can see the picture a lot clearer than you guys sitten on the inside |

Dennis you are correct the place is not perfect and never will be. As far as a weekly program, it doesn't matter what track is running or not running, Gateway has the best program around right now. Now as far as the bigger events around the bracket racing, they have a lot to learn if they want them to succeed.

GMP hands down ought to be the place to race Jmo But the owner has decided to skip out skimp down ! Leaving hag tag who knows from what week to week I agree every track has issues no doubt But when you should be the premier track state of the art facility location and you mess up as bad as they have these first 4 years , now you have another owner who cares less of the drag racing side than ever I have the utmost respect for Rod at Cole County he works his butt off to try and get programs in He's there every week talking to racers works at the track to try n make a great day of racing for the racers That's what's lost at GMP Among ither things |

To sit back from the outside is what you and your click choose to do .i believe if I follow your threads you haven't raced anywhere this year your choice again .
Gmp was open others couldn't be open racers got the chance to race your choice .
And wither they ran pts or not that early racers came .
Your working a lot by all your posts not their fault .
You racing the July 25 race Aug 1 race ?
Seasons almost over move on to 2016 .
