NASCAR CANADA STEPS UP PURSE BIG TIME

[oldbill]

BAR sounds a lot like midamerica, Welcome back Dave. Glad your feeling better.
The names on his list are not surprising. Gibbons is retiring. Ranger & DJ will likely go Nationwide full time. Others were not fulltime anyway.
Purse money is not what drives this series. It's sponsorships.
There are teams wanting in if they can make the right deals.
Keep the faith.

Great point oldbill!.....and purse does not drive NASCAR in the US either....it is 100% sponsorship that does, just like up here...some people dont get it.

What does NASCAR have to really pay for in the US, besides their employee's?

The Tracks pay NASCAR for the races and the tracks pay purse for the drivers? Right.

Sponsors pay NASCAR to be the title sponsor. Companies pay NASCAR to be licensed to use the name in ads. TV pays NASCAR for rights to air the races.

Sponsors pay to be on the teams cars.

Like it or not NASCAR knows how to make money.

OK Just ticket prices @ 65.00 x 120,000 fans = 7,800,000.00 and that doesn't include money made of the consessions,pit and garage passes, camping.

I can see why a track that looses an event wants to take NASCAR to court that is a lot of money to be lost.

I wish I could run a company like they do.

Does anyone know how it works for the track to have all race trailers selling driver merchandise. Does the track get a cut or they just charge a fee for each trailer?

I have to admit....bar does sound alot like  m.a.  lol
 the tracks charge teams to sell their merchandise.  just like nascar takes 12%  of any merchandise  that has the nascar logo on it.
we are in tough times people,  but the economy will bounce back; it always does.  as for ncats  falling on its face ,  not likely,  the teams that wether the storm (economy)will be the successful teams in the future. and you have to admit, some new blood in the series would do some good!   #21  jw

well put there Jay and we the fans are here to support.  My suggestion is to have the banquet and all future driver meeting at the local A&W and we can use the Canadian Tire store parking lots for autograph sessions!!!!  I still refuse to give up on this series, its just been that entertaining to watch the races these past couple of seasons.

The difference are in the racing cost $$$$$.

Main event for Camping World are 100-150 Laps.

- 8000$ for the winner means 50-80$ per racelap.

Maint event for NCATS are 250-300 Laps. Means more expensive racing cost $$$.

- 8000$ for the winner means 25-35$ per racelap.


Longer race means more tires, more fuel, more raceparts to change...!!!


And, you MUST consider important travelling for NCATS compare to CAMPING WORLD.

i was looking at the camping world series payouts and other than the big 3 nascar series it appears that the canadian tire series payout is in line with the others or even a bit more..at least by judging from the standings..

don't get me wrong it's peanuts in the grand scheme but i was surprised the camping world series pays squat too

First- You are way off course on my identity.
My initials are A.D. and I have run at Flamborough.

Second- I put up 10 name's of current drivers in the series.
Six of the Ten are moving on.
I know you all hate brain teasers !!
If you would like I will take out Connelly (that one was to easy) and replace him with Doug Brown.

Third- I would have to say that over the last 15 years it has been the same guys always winning and always in the same top ten. Andrew Ranger and JR Fitzpatrick were a huge surprise to everyone, but welcomed by the fans and teams to finally see someone else on the podium.
There is a spin on this and its much bigger news then 6 guys leaving.
We will now have 6 new drivers in the top ten for the first time in years and more then likely 6 new teams coming into the series.
That is the best news for the series in a long time- fresh blood !!

It also helps the teams out that have been around for a long time but have only dreamed of the podium. Drivers like Kent Nunn will have finally have a chance.
Heck- Maybe even Southern Sponsor- Jason White can get a top ten for once !!!

This is not bad news for the series- instead huge news of new teams and winners joining the Nascar Canadian Tire Series.

 just for the record 21 Jason white has finished in the top ten twice this year , and there are two races to go both are tracks he has been at last year , did he also not finish in the top 10 at the last race last year and Thompson was behind him.
anyhow that said again it is all about sponsors.

Let the sponsors know you use there products  go to A&W have a papa burger, go to home hardware buy some paint and one of the sharks, go buy a interstate battery for you car,go get some dickey coveralls, stop buy Canadian tire get a BBQ, the point is if you let the sponsors know you use the products because of there involvement in motorsports,
they all have contacts to send a email to. just say thanks to them It just might help these guys keep and find new sponsors.
