Just wondering if anyone heard when and where the banquet is going to be. Or if they were just going to mail the RUBBER checks.

Maybe he should give you a couple nights with his
Wife and his house for those couple nights you paid for a pit pass to race .... He shut down part way through a season because of getting hammered by financial losses and you expect him
To squeeze more blood from the rock .... Ask the ppms regulars about the big point fund checks they get .... And ppms is like the Taj Mahal compared to
Amp and it's in the middle of a highly populated area where most people have jobs . Up by amp people either cook meth or they smoke the dudes hammer
For meth who cooks it ...

It must be nice to have nothing better to do than be a real jack ass! Your comments are so stupid,stupid is putting it nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[The Legend]

It just so happens my hard work has put me In a position where I have some down time driving to and from multiple projects daily which gives me time to give you clowns a daily reality check

I wouldn't call ppms the Taj Mahal, even compared to amp. That place has a nice surface, but the facility is a dump. Especially for being in a place with money as you claim.

[The Legend]

You misread the place doesn't have money and doesn't make money and it's in a prime location !!! Amp is in bum fuked Egypt in an area with nothing but poor people and you expect it to be a gold mine

[714d]

Thats how I worded it.... Ppms is in a location with money. I know the track itself has got to be broke. Amp was/is a dump, but the car counts were similar and usually better than ppms with a lot less being dished out in purse money. Financially, amp was probably more successful if you exclude the one or two big, successful races at ppms.

[The Legend]

So amp was booming ???

According to the latest census the average family income in Clearfield County is around $23,000.

No one said amp was booming. It didn't do shit. Just don't try to convince anyone that your home track is any better...... It's definitely not. The only thing ppms does that amp can't: stay running through years of piss poor management. And I don't think anyone knows how they are doing that unless Miley is pulling cash from his own pockets to open the gates.

OK, I have NOTHING in anything about AMP, but after all of the controversey and the things that Mr. Taylor said in AARN, does anyone truly think there will be points checks and a banquet? 

[Dingo]

The Promoter at AMP ran off owing our Class a total of $1200 - the classic 'The checks are in the mail'. I would suggest any monies, trophies, contingency's or awards that were put aside for the drivers at the end of the racing year, will be long gone as well. All up, a lot of people got screwed.

 

His 'poor me' tirade in AARN was completely one sided and 'the other side' wasn't given an opportunity to square the ledger.

 

Given the ill feeling spawned by his words and actions however, I would be surprised if you see Mr Taylor within 200 miles of this area.

[The Legend]

" got screwed " implies that he was making money and just isn't giving everyone " their cut " I'm
Sure if you guys would like to take what he spent , minus what he brought in and divide that by everyone who raced there I'm sure he would happily do that .... The only problem is that it would still be a negative ..... And you would be " out " more than you feel your currently entitled to ....

[714d]

^^ bingo. I'm not sure why anyone,at this point, would even think there was a chance of receiving a dime from the place. If a business goes under, you can't go back to the empty building and expect a refund for an item you purchased, even if it came with a guarantee. Sucks that it's just one more reason for the local businesses there to be reluctant to support racers/tracks.

[racer111]

Exactly...however doesn't matter if he made money or not, lots of tracks don't, but they still give out points money IF they are planning on trying again...which of course Mr. Taylor made it clear he is not...

[Express Man]

Everyone should look at what they gained from Mr. Taylor!  You now have a revitalized track that someone should want to takeover!  Before Mr. Taylor...you have a field full of weeds!  Granted...he wasn't the greatest guy in the end....but he left something behind!  I would think some "want to be" promotor would jump at the chance to get in business with little expense!

[The Legend]

Exactly !! That gold mine is sitting there abandoned !! The race studders should take it over and pay a WOO late model series type point fund for all divisions ....

Anyone familiar with the direction that PPMS has taken under the Miley's ownership and the ability to process rational thought knows that the program sucks, the facilities are for shit and that the competitors that still go there are generally regarded with an afterthought.

[racer111]

And, it will probably become a field full of weeds again...little expense?  Didn't he rip the lights out of there?  And who knows what else?

 

I do know one thing, can't run up against the Bird around here, now once again I have really nothing in this...just my opinion ((just like "most" everyone else on here actually)) but it looked to me like the cars were split down the middle, half to the Bird and half to AMP...
