Can we get some word on what mods will pay at chow, hanford, and or if tulare has them?

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems Mike has done alot of "I am going to do this and pay this" "The WSM is going ot be the next best thing since sliced bread" "I am going to be a preacher; Thanks for all the support" "Actually, I am going to continue the WSM due to all of the support calls I have received" and now once again he is calling it quits. I think you see where I am going w/this. Mike has done alot for us modified racers, but all this back and forth in my mind has diminished his credibility. I would think he just threw a monkey wrench into alot of guys 2010 schedules. JMO

Cant say its not typical on the west coast. Look at Cali , Oregon, AZ. ALl turmoil all the time, and we wonder why no big sponsers come out west. No stability! As far as Mock goes, he was a positive advocate for the racer, raised the purse and the competition. He did say and do some dumb things, we all do. I wish him luck. As far as you guys bashing Robby for wanting the best pay for the racer. You guys are just dumb. Im glad your in a mod Robby that way you can at least pick and choose where you race. Ill be racing again and you can bet purse will determine where we race. Chet.

first off to you that want to start talking shlt, i do not do this to make money, but i do like to know what a track is paying cause like i have said before, i like to support the tracks that pay a good purse, so excuse me for being a little curious of payout and what is happening between tracks.

91 crew and scott woodhouse, thank you for coming on here and letting us that were unable to attend the meeting saturday what was said. 1k to win is nice... i also talked to a reliable source today and he said chow is still paying 1200 to win, thank you kenny for that. i heard tulare is still going to be a good purse so thats all i wanted to know if the scheduled races and everything there was still on...thanks

threewideracin... the topic is about payout and whats happening between tracks, not about me, so please keep your stupid comments to yourself.

NEW NAME SHOULD BE "CMTS" California Modified Touring Series"

Before anyone badmouths Mike we should consider what he has done for Modified Racing on the West Coast. Because he paid 1k to win others are now paying 500 - 600 to win. Promoters finally realized that money makes the field grow. The purse would have never gone up without someone making it happen and for that we have to thank Mike. It is hard to commit to something like this, he has a real job and a family. I cannot imagine the time that he has put into this. I wouldnt be surprised if it was taken from him to eliminate the middle man. Things come up and situations change... shoot just this weekend I was going to Arkansas to pick up a car and now I cannot go until the end of the month. Mike has said stuff when he should have remained quiet... but who hasn't. Rather than kick someone when they are "down" why dont you get "down" on your knees and pray for him. Things are tuff right now for a lot of people, Mike works for the State of CA... and you know the state has financial issues right now that have effected his job stability.

Mike I appreciate you and wish things would have worked like you dreamed. Not all dreams come true but thanks for sharing your dreams with us!!

God Bless
Troy Morris Jr.

I will support whatever you promote!!

Man you guy's are way off the mark, but that is why the west coast is always a step behind. People spend their money and "FREE" time to put something together and get zip out of it other than the pride of trying to make something happen for the racers. But as soon as it seems to go off track, then that person is a no good SOB.

This is what I was told!!!!!!!!Rumor has it that the total purse for 20 or less cars will be 3,000 and 40 for car entry and every car after 20 will be 120.00 that goes into purse. So kind of hard to pay 1,000 and 100 with only 3,000 to work with. But we will just have to wait and see what happens.

I could say something about how the SLM races went to S***, but that would be throwing rocks at glass houses.

Good luck to Tulare!

I want to make something clear: I am in no way talking bad about anyone, I just want people to know we r racing still.

The rumors of a floating purse are not completely true. There is a basis based on cars, but it is still the best purse in modifieds.

Once Faria gets back from Pomona (good luck Steve!) the three tracks will get together and get a press release together. But we are moving forward.

Playday Feb 20 and 27 at kings. $20 per person in pits no car fee. Free grandstands. 10-dusk

okay i dont like troy but he is so right!!!! there is no reason to bad mouth anyone at all... mike tried his best to help us racers, yeah he canceled the big money show 2 years in a row, but oh well... its hard for people sometimes just like troy said, rather he was given the boot or chose to leave... we need to appreciate the hard work him and little darlins child care put into this division.

On a side note... dont do a floating purse based on car count... i cant speak for anyone but myself, but when you say the purse is based on 20 cars bla bla bla... i myself will not support that at hanford untill i see the car count after a few races... tulare and chow i will simply cause i know they will get that no problem... but thats just me...
