That's awesome that VoiceEclipse.com is putting up purse money at BHF the next 2 weekends! Does anyone know more info. about how the payout is going to break down? -$500, $250, $125? Is it cash or certificates for their product?
Does the CEO race at midwest CCS events?
Why are you asking? You aren't coming anyways! (and if you did, I may have to sabotage your bike!)
;D
Ok, anybody that has an actual chance of winning some of the money want to give me a serious reply? ;D
I'll be there in Sept. for sure.
Ouch.
This coming from a traitor that leaves his teammate to go run CRA and only wants to shows up when the money is there... I'll let you know after the August weekend how much money I make while you are working!
;D ;D
So where was this news about a purse?

Russ rocks. :D
The money is coming from VoiceEclipse.com, a new phone service from Starnet Inc.
Yes, the CEO does race MW CCS events when he can. He is Russ Intravartolo, expert #47 and has been racing CCS for some 12 years now although on a very infrequent basis. His business takes him away a lot.
Russ is not only a racer but a race fan and a huge supporter of the Wegman Benefit Fund. The Wegman website is currently being completely rebuilt courtesy of Russ and Starnet. He also contributes generously to the annual auction at Blackhawk Farms.
You can check out Starnet at StarNetusa.com
SWEET!!! And to think I almost took this guy out at Road A in the last turn :-/
Here's another question...
How does donating purse money for classes that are normally non-purse paying, help the wegman fund?
it's called PR, promotion of the fund. Russ/VoiceEclipse puts the money up "on behalf of" the Wegman Fund. We cannot do that since we cannot give our money away for that purpose so Russ does it to promote VoiceEclipse and the Wegman Fund.
Just ask Super Dave, the master of promtion in our region. Every positive word out there helps. ;D ;D
More news on the Wegman Fund coming soon!
Preaching to the Choir... I race because I promote :D
Just wasn't sure if there was something behind the scenes which would give you more $$$... There will probably be a larger turn-out though because of it.
QuoteJust ask Super Dave, the master of promtion in our region. Every positive word out there helps. ;D ;D
Me? Is that good or bad?
I WANT SOME of that money.
If I get some, it's going to the WEGMAN and to Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer.
Why has my icon become a pink fuzzy wabbit with a floppy ear? I think I smell an Edgar. Maybe I need to get a mascot on the bike like Casper had the ghost which Edgar had to follow around.
Anyway, that's great that Russ put that money up for the last two blackhawk weekends. I'll probably only make the Sept. weekend and I probably won't win the purse so maybe I should get a skirt. Looking forward to getting to blackhawk once this year!Sad, :'( only once. Looking forward to the Wegman Auction in Sept. too.
P.S. In case you didn't get the video yet, FASTER is going to be re-released in about 50 theaters in Sept. I'm not going to be involved with it this time around, but will let anyone know if I see a schedule.
