Well it looks like the Track Alliance - Orlando, New Symrna, Lake City,

Inverness, Aubudale, Punta Gorda and Desoto have killed collectively

asphalt sprint car racing in Florida. What they have said is they will pay

the sprint cars $4500 and the club have to cover the balance. This would

provide $335.00 to the winner. $4500 is nothing as they will cover that

just in collecting the $35.00 pit pass per person from the teams with just 128 people.

Also it was reported that USCS has cancelled ASPHALT sprint car racing

for 2011. Lets congradulate the TBARA and its drivers by agreeing not to

race SPEEDWEEKS at Inverness, New Symrna and Desoto in Feb 2011

and sticking together. Sprint cars will race at New Symrna and get the full

purse because the late model race is renting the track and has added TBARA

sprinters as a support race. On the otherhand the dirt sprintcars are doing

well and getting the right purse. Expect the dirt sprinters at East Bay and

Volusia..

Boy that sucks How were the stands last year? I thought the crowd draw was usually good at those races.

I always wanted to see sprint cars, winged or non-wing, run on a 3/8th or half-mile asphalt track. Had my chance about 20+ years ago when the NCRA sprints were on their northern tour and raced at I-94 speedway in Sauk Centre,MN but my buddy wanted to go boating. Of course, the Sauk Centre speedway has been a dirt track for many years now (and snow for the snowmobile races they have)

 Lawlessness and liberalism equals Hell.  NY City, 
Detroit, Seattle, Chicago, Minnepolis, etc. We saw it. 
Burning hundreds of buildings, a thousand assaults and 
dozens of murders. Getting worser and worser.

I hope all the Fl asphalt promoters get coal in their Christmas stocking.
