Sitting here watching racing and thinking about how crazy this game has gotten
i agree with you. there has to be a winner and a loser, that's it. i don't buy back, maybe i'm old fashioned or something.
It’s business, nothing more, nothing less.
Guys pay the money to get to the track enter a race, fuel, etc, etc.
Get one time trial, usually. Lose first round, you’re done.
Were it not for the buyback it most definately would effect participation, and the money the track takes in to pay the bills.
Take a look at what % of guys buy back that lose. It’s high. At my track if you lose and have to buy back, your points stop. So there is that penalty.
Like I always say, I paid the money to race, I might as well race now that I am here.
I am 68 like John is, very soon to be 69. Once I make the effort to get somewhere, I am friggin racing as much as I can.
