Why is the June 5th Ed Laboon Memorial grandstand fee $20.00 and pit fees $4o.oo? This race was always regular price. Now I guess the crook figured out a way to rob the fans and back gate at Vince's expense. All the extra monies was raised by Vince.

We don't know if Miley put more money then usual into the purse. I asked Vince on a prior post.

Well hopefully the promoters stock more money into the purse. If not then they are using vinces fathers for self gain at his expense. Hopefully he explains why prices have increased.

I don't mind paying a little extra for a good show such as the ELM and Jook but what pisses me off is that Miley insists on racing every single division on top of the big show. Nobody wants to sit and watch 3 young guns race then Dave Oliveri interviewing the winner for 5 mins.

I thought don gamble announced there. It's been yrs since I sat in the stands. Honestly a big fellow like me would go right through one of those rotted boards.
Every time they have a big race it runs past curfew and screws a lot of the racers who travel a good distance. I don't know if you pay attention to what flow racing is doing with their many late model series and only having one other division. Makes the night so much enjoyable.

Please don't turn this into a bash fest, but since everyone is asking: Yes, there was a purse increase due to it being a PSX show, so it will be the most money they've contributed to the race. Since 2015, their base portion of the race has increased and now almost doubled, as has my contribution. So from as recently as the 2018 show, the total payout has more than doubled for 2021. Between that and the "rising costs of operations at PPMS" I was told they really needed to raise the admission $5 for the ELM. Not my call. But yes, I'm still raising the difference in the purse, and doing all I can to make this the biggest event yet. So please don't trash it over the $5. Total payout will be close to $25K with no entry or registration fees so I still feel this is a great deal for the racers.

Rising cost of opperations??? Are you referring to new telephone Poles that got taken out last week I saw pictures of.Please don't turn this into a bash fest, but since everyone is asking: Yes, there was a purse increase due to it being a PSX show, so it will be the most money they've contributed to the race.

What I think people are trying to tell you is they go there to see the main show and not a side show. When you go to the firecracker people are there to see late models. Not 4 cylinders not pure stocks night big block modified in so on. When you have all these other divisions to pad your pockets and you can't even get a non qualifiers race in that was part of the main show something is wrong.
