I like Jasons idea
I am all for a longer race no qualifying it wastes time.
200 is fine for the entry  if the pay out is going to be good.
maybe 45 mins or 1 hour + 2  laps

if we like team challenge just use it as a pattern so it's 25 more than daytona at least your not paying for the privilege of harley music all night .run saturday afternoon after practice do it a couple times a year per region so if someone wanted they could travel to other tracks    isn't that like wera endurance

I'm with Ducmarc, over half the entries in the Unlimited classes are 600s anyway, why no LW class?
Because it would be easier and quicker to just hand a check to Ed before the race.    :kicknuts:

I initially voted no but I would do it if it was a long enough race, say 45 minutes to an hour.

I'm interested, but would have to know how payouts would be given. I've been stiffed for $650 in Unlimted GP races this year due to "missing forms"

No lightweight class?  Guess I don't care then.

gotta agree though, it sounds expensive for the duration.

Kevin -

I have a couple thoughts that I will just throw out there. I am also contemplating what I will be doing next season - As are most other racers out there. My perspective may come from a slightly different angle then others - But I think it is inline with everyone's best interest.. 

I love the idea of a money class - What are the possible scenarios? 600 - 1000 Ex and Am? What day? Would it be more beneficial to make the GT races long enough to justify throwing some money into and make it into a Regional Endurance Series? Maybe a Saturday program?

I would even think about just longer sprint races - But I myself would be more partial to an Endurance thing. 

Anyway it goes together - I would like to see a definite payout schedule - And a different payment structure.. Speaking for myself as a racer that gets from race to race on the money that I make that weekend would like to know I will have gas money for the ride home at the end of a weekend.. I might even be willing to go to more races or longer distance races knowing that I have a chance at some cash..

61 or 61 X - Which will it be??

Why not have those big floppy checks, and a podium.

Hopefully we could it also for amateur races.
