So I'm beginning to understand the whole contingency thing.  Is there a master list of what companies pay? (not that I'd be there anytime soon, just interested in learning)  Any things that get payed out for that aren't obvious, like tires/bodywork?  Oil, spark plugs, or something like that?

Theres a whole list in the forms and downloads sections.

Becka nailed it.   :spank:

Because a company offers contigency, it doesn't mean it's a quality product that you want to buy.  You still should look at each thing.  Pretty much all the tire companies have contingency that are players in the racing market.

You should also talk to some people and see IF the contingency payout actually ever gets paid! there are several companies on the list that have major problems getting the certificates/$$/product to the racer no matter how carefully you follow their directions!! :kicknuts:

That would good information for me to have as I was unaware of this and I beleive Ryan was as well.

I have not seen a company that advertised contingency not pay.

Please email me the details at Eric.Kelcher@ccsracing.us

Maybe it me, but I can't find how much each company pays out.

Okay so it appears that we may have the information in a "hidden" location that is not the intention.

The links to companies that have a contingency program are on the Spponsor and Contignecy page then there we have links to the forms that have the requirements and payout amounts, a special page that lists which companies pay in each class, and a FAQ question page for contingency.

Where are you looking that makes more sense to you? Or how can we help in the layout, location, etc?

I've heard that powerstands doesn't pay...........not sure if that's true or not.

I found it, its just really hard the way the buttons are labeled. Me personally, I would have the pdf page linked on the sponsors and contingency page and then again where it is.

Found it with the clues, thanks.

Can you put immediate pdf's on that contingency page rather than sending us to another page?  Yeah, you'd have them on multiple pages,  but it might make things easier.

Guess what I got yesterday?

A VP Contingency check!   

Wow, didn't think that was going to happen.

It's for three races in July of 2007.

That's nearly a year from the event date!!!!

Wonder if they plan on paying out on the rest of the year sometime before Christmas  :biggrin:

certainly can't complain about Michelin or Powerstands.  michelin dough is available within 5 days.  Powerstands certificates come within three weeks.

vesrah and silkolene took a good amount of time...

Most of the companies that pay contingency do a decent job but VP for the past three seasons has either - never paid or paid on some races 6-9months later.

At least that's been my personal experience.

Thought I'd post here as fair warning to those expecting something from VP and the fact that Eric K posted before wanting information about any contingency payout problems.

Yeah Michelin is awesome. Money shows up in about a week, goes right to a Visa debit card that you can use for anything you want. Best part is Tom Mason's service is top notch.

+ a billion on that.

I got my Blackhawk money yesterday.  Races on Sunday, money on Thursday.  Was similar from Heartland Park Topeka races.

I received my check for two races in 07!  One question, not bragging, but I won all of them except for two~~Do I call them to ask for more?  I've been shorted, I think.  However, I would like to Thank all of my Sponsors including VP.  This is a PM so don't take me literally!   All in good nature!

Oh yeah, I'm still awaiting  my payback of $30.00 from Crash!
