you a prim-a- donna is that what they call itdirtfan 84==please get your facts correct==scott works for the fair board==they pay him to prep the track (which I might add was multy groved tonight)and keep all us prim-a-donna racers on the right track'so to speak'
Are you kidding me about the best and biggest shows??? Bell-Vegas had a summernationls show and the World of Outlaw Late Model's in september plus the miget shows. That's some pretty big shows. I-55 is the only track in the area that has the Wolrd of Outlaw late models besides Bell-Vegas. I'm sure in time Donnie would bring the Lucas Oil boys in town. Lets hope and pray they fix this and get Belleville rocking againSeems to me that the tracks that can operate outside of a fair board put on some of the best and biggest shows. The privately owned tracks have more revenue to make improvements and put more towards purses. Jmo but I feel like the highland fair board just collects a paycheck from Scott without lifting a finger and Scott abides to try to keep it going and keep this sport alive. Very sorry Belleclair, I do love watching a race there from time to time. Really hope to see you back in full swing next year.
is don still going to get his percentage of the concession sales these last two events? if so I would urge everybody to spend whatever they can down there.even tho that's going to be putting more than the fairboards fair share of money in there pocket.i see it as helping put some well deserved cash in dons pocket.if hes not going to get any cut these last two races I wont buy a thing.and as far as 50/50 goes.does the fairboard get the other half?if so I will not buy any of those either.
Don does not get any of the concession or beer sales. That is the problem.
Don gets the pit gate & spectator gate, out of which he has to pay rent to Belle-Clair Fairgrounds Inc. Plus he has to pay the purse, officials, track Prep, Insurance, Advertising, and I'm sure there are many more expenses involved.
The concessions except for beer sales is run by Greenfields & they give a percentage to Belle-Clair Fair Grounds Inc.
The beer sales goes entirely to Belle-Clair Fair grounds Inc.
The 50/50 goes to the drivers point fund.
The fair board is not an elected board. It is a group of investors who own shares of stock in the building & grounds.
Since Don took over they have seen their income increase considerably, and they no longer face any of the risk or headaches they faced when they ran the track.
The only connection they have to the state is being paid a stipend for holding the county fair. Which has probably been shrinking the last few years because of the states finances.
Can someone clarify if we can bring food and drinks in this Friday.
Turns out it wasn't a cucumber after all.
