I spoke with Richard Clark about this a few days ago, he said everything was the same this year? Here is the link to the TSA rules, the payout is stated on the last page. I have seen other posts that state there is also a 4th place? ... and that these numbers have doubled? ....and what happens if you break 10.99? I am still curious about the TSA race at Greensboro?
Richard was going to reply to this but the site went down ......
TSA Turbo Stock Appearing in GS Nats - Race Rules & Payouts Forum
Purse will be $2900 if there are at least 3 qualifying cars. 1600 first, 800 second and 500 third. As an indicator of the spirit of the class, purse will be doubled for any car if it scores at least ________ [2] in the concours class of the car show. Car must race identical as it appears in the concours with NO changes except for wheels and tires.
Example: car places third in race class and silver in concours, purse of $500 would be doubled to $1000
It is only 30 days to the race can anyone verify what the 2011 Purses are going to be???
Here is the 2009 info, I do not know if it still stands ???
TSA Class GSCA Bowling Green 2009
Turbo Stock Appearing Class is sponsored 100% by ZDDPlus™. Last year was the very first year for ZDDPlus™ involvement.
This year the purse has been vastly increased. Call it the ZDDPlus Stimulus Package since the word Stimulus is now the new catch word.
Here are the purses:
Finish first and it pays $3,200
Take second place walk away with $1,600
Third place you take $1,000
The company has added fourth place this year and that pays $500
It gets better. If you win any of the above 4 slots and obtain a silver or above win in the show car portion of the event the purse doubles! This means potentially if you won top place at $3,200 and you finish above silver in the show you walk away with $6,400. That's a lot of dinners with the wife.
Also, every year after this year the amount of prize money in each class doubles until someone breaks into the 10 second bracket. When this happens Richard Clark wants to buy that car! Check out the GSCA website for the rules.
A word of advice you will want to have ZDDPlus in your oil. We will have it available for sale. We will also have ZDDPlus™ windshield decals available at the event.
ZDDPlus™ is also one of the 2 major sponsors for this years F.A.S.T events along with Nationals Parts Depot. This is another nationally recognized event that features stock appearing muscle cars.
This is totally sponsored by ZDDPlus™
All the above figures are correct.
