From the 'WHO'......Lyrics from:

"Won't be Fooled again"

"Meet the new Boss...Same as the Old Boss !!"

No 'VP Director of Short Track Operations', no "Director of TRACK PR", no corporate heads, just a short track paying a whole lot of money !!

"Clash at the Can " paid $8000 + to the winner, Billy Decker !

Winner of the "GOBRECHT MEMORIAL" WON $7000 !

Winner of the Mitch Smith Memorial won $10,000 not $300 !!

Look at what Fonda, another short track paid  $9500!!

Williams Grove will continue to pay $3,600 to win for a regular show, plus incentives for winning from outside the third row and $10 per lap led. Williams Grove’s championship team gets $20,000. They do not pay more for Demo Derbies wins than they pay their regular racer's purse!

Please do not send photos that have been sent to other 'Nostalgia' sites, as the advertisements on those sites goes against my intent.
