Went with Mychal Lucero to Amarillo. WOW what a show. All divisions had good car count and the grandstands were packed. Even more folks than two weeks ago for the USMTS show. Mychal tried to go into the grandstands to hear driver names and he could not even find an open seat.
Amarillo can do good payouts because of the large car count and huge fan base. There is more money in the Amarillo economy than New Mexico. It's kinda a viscous circle, low car count = low fan count = lower payouts. If I had the answers, I'd be the track promoter. I'm glad we have a place to race in Albuquerque, Grants, Las Cruces and Aztec and Carlsbad, etc.
