Any interests in running Sunday afternoon shows on the 1/5 mile truck? The track is opening again with the karts running Friday nights. All Sundays are possible to run if the interests is there.

Will it take away from the sat night running of them on the 1/4 mile? or will it give them two nights to run.

It will give them two places to run. As far as my understanding they're still scheduling to run them on Saturdays on the big track. I think it would make for better racing. Instead of run aways that goes on out there. Plus you'de see lap traffic driving.

I dont know if its true but i have heard greg didnt want racing on sundays. Can you have a draw with just minisprints on sunday. Ive always said if the big track was to run a late sunday afternoon show like findlay used to do. you would have a good crowd , and a better field of cars. Its hard to compete with some of the other tracks that run on sat nights. No one runs on sundays. Just my 2 cents worth i have nothing in it.

Greg doesn't have enough time running the kart track this year. We'll be running the karts on Friday nights. With it sit open on Sunday at times. I was wondering if there was any interests with the Mini's or sidewinders running. We're planning on running a couple afternoon shows with the karts. Just won't run both together just because of track surface the karts call for.

Yeah that would be good, As fast as these cars are going now (huh) on a 1/5 you are just asking for trouble (bent,broken or worse car). There already is a place like that and most of you know where I am talking about and we all have heard the stories about that track..... And seeing how the mini's are the fastest class on the track that would be like taking a step backwards!! buy this is just my opinion...... B-RAD RACING SUPPLIES

I would say running on the big track you are asking for trouble, The other track you speak of has had some of the best racing I have seen in my 20 years of racing. The big track is just wide open and who has the biggest motor usually wins. And I think any racer would rather have a few bent parts than to be life flighted out of a track any day. Also with you being someone who sells parts I don't understand why you would want to bash another track

slow poke: Have you ever ran the big track? yes we had one bad accident last year but that probly could have been avoided but that is the past.. And yes I do sell part but I would rather not sell part because of stupidity such as running these cars on a track that is to small, I beleive that the reason that Greg did the big track was because these car were to big for that track.!!!!!! So have the need for speed or give up racing

I have ran the big track. Also I have seen your car run a few times, and I belive you are the one who needs some speed.

the minisprints raced on the kart track before the big track was built.It is a killer kart track but too narrow for the mini sprints, you had to put your right rear in the grass coming off the corners

The minis would be better suited to a smaller track. Either that or run them non-wing as midgets to unlock the cars. Wide open on the bottom isn't much fun.
