What kind of payouts?

 

by not making this a street car competition its destined for failure. good luck though

 

Street Muffled? booooooo, Hey Art, u gonna be present?

 

I wont be there. This is being organized by Javier Ortega so you know this will be a good event.

art

 

i'll be there......in my wrx......hahaha.

 

There will not be a cash payout. The event will have trophies and other prizes like dyno runs gift certificates, t-shirts and much more. This event is design to be a fun day for all Honda fans.

 

Good to see you here Javier.

 

Javier, can we bring our saturn out to this? email me some more info and i will try spread the word for you down in va. oh and tell jackie to put out some money to get urban racer's name on the flier. i think that would be good.

-mike

 

if i can get my teg running by then i might be down. see what she can lay down.

 

That sounds like fun. I'll try to make it there. Since this is a "for fun" event, how strict will the officials be if a car isn't caged that needs to be?

Hello Javier, sounds like fun. Sounds like the perfect time to bring the coupe out for shakedowns. Jason

 

Since there is no cash payouts,who's gonna pocket the extra cash if there is any left over after the track fee,which i believe is around the $1500-2000 range....javier? or the track?...i think it really blows that there is no cash pay out,tell him not to buy any trophies and crap and make it cash.

ps..it always seems to me any import event gets low balled when it comes to payouts even though turn outs are big

Sounds like a fun event. Why does it have to be about money? I would think track rental fees, insurance and extra help would take all the profit out of it, anyway. Give a guy trying to do something for fun Honda lovers a break. If the event loses money, are you going to pay extra as you leave the track?

 

earls right.

should be in texas tho

 

That's the risk of running any kind of event (ie i use to put together a hockey team,didnt get enuff guys one year.Did i charge the guys i had extra at the end,no.I had to shallow about $700,oh well) but if there was cash i would definitly pay more to get it.If I was doing it I would charge like $100 per car and make a nice cash payout.It would make things more interesting for some of us,but that's just my opinion.

D-man you sound like a real brain surgeon. The track charges $20 to test and tune
the price for this event is $ 25 . Before you start talking about pocketing money, ID your self, so that honest people like my self who do not hide their name or identity could know who is talking to us.

 

That's the inherent risk of being a capitalist. If he makes some $$, there will be a second year of the event.

 

By the way I know who D-man is.

 

Javier, I posted this in members corner also.

Thanks Art, I greatly appreciate all your support and the support of the other fine menbers of this page.

 

hey javier, nice to see you here, sorry I didn't call Fri., I'll try to get a hold of you tommorrow or e-mail me.-dave localio

 

1st off I wasnt saying you were dishonest.I didnt know what kind of deal you cut with etown.I didnt think it was like that but thats why I was asking who was getting the money,anyway..i think you should make it like this..20 for the track,$5 for you and lets say an extra $25 to enter the heads up classes for a payout to be figured out when you see how many people show up...your not gonna do it cause its for fun and thats the way you wanna do it,it was just a thought nothing more.


1 minute later you say...

if you really know....i definitly know the pos who told you! and i hide my identity like 99% of the other non-seller members on this board to throw off thieves which i know visit this board so i will never identify myself unless im buying/selling something from you...i will be really pissed if what your saying is true and this SN will disappear soon after you "Honestly" anwser my Private Message!

I might just make it for the autocross. Will the cars be classified by the traditional SCCA classes? What time do the doors open?

 

Details will come as I get them.
