Default Whats with the triple crown this year?

I was speaking with a friend and he told me that the triple crown ends in Juniper Florida with the OSS, If this is true, do we have to join the OSS for a year only to race in one? Are the guys from the OSS going to join the OPA? Whats the deal???

The way I understand it. Geico is going to sponsor 3 events. Ocean City, Patchogue, and Jupiter. Two are OPA and One is OSS. No Triple Crown, just three individual events. We will pay the prize money at each individual race this year.

Does that mean Geico is adding to the purse, or the same purse with Geico as title sponsor.

At this point we are working on our regular season. If there are any talks further than that you will be the first to know. Thanks Smitty

I am not sure if we should pay a purse this year, or divide the money equally amongst the teams that show. What do you think. Smitty

Pay purse, but payout all the way down the finishing order, so even the last place guys get a check.
