Payouts/Purses Question for Pro Mod Mania (4 Viewers)

[jgrigz]

Does anyone have a link to or know the complete breakdown of the purse for Pro Mod Mania yesterday? I know it was $125,000 to win, but what was the runner up on down? What about the other classes that were at the event such as MMPS, etc? I tried to find it on the IHRA site but couldn't find it. Thanks

I believe that they only had 25 entries in PM ? What caused the fairly low car count ? I dont believe there were any other Big PM events this weekend. I think he WSOPM is the only event that pays more -$150k and I think they had like 60 entries this year.

the cars that didn't show knew they had no chance against the ones that did

There are a lot of factors. For one, we don’t think that was a terrible car count. Could it have been better? Of course.

Daytime racing in the summer isn't desirable, really far north, a ways away from the epicenter of PM racing (Southeast), light on promotion, some are not happy with the ruleset, some have committed to running other series', lots of PM races throughout the year so some have to pick and choose, there was a big PM race the weekend before and some can't race back-to-back, some are still skeptical.

We have some things we are working on for the rest of the season, so if we keep improving little by little, I'm hopeful the car count will grow with time.

Josh, don't you get around the same number of cars in PM for your regular Outlaw Nitro events with 50k to the winner ?

Give or take a few, yes.
