No, the problem is that too many of these tracks want to present any crap filled, back-gate heavy 6 hour program and expect everyone to be fine with it. Sorry pal, but when I go to a restaurant and get crappy food and service, I won't be going back and I will spread the word.
 
I'm not going to the races to be charitable. I pay $15 at the gate, or whatever it is, and I expect a relatively quick moving, quality program. When the hell did that become too much to ask? Get over yourself.




good one easy to talk shit when your nameless or otherwise known as a pussy. All you do is post garbage on here no one cares if you are at the track or not stay home. Calling and bitching at sponsors who keep the sport going is a terrible fing idea and if you don't think so your a moron.

Live on Mercer. Live on. Someone said no fans and the back gate was keeping them a float. I went 4 times last year. Yes, it was your typical mercer, dusty as hell. But, the fans where there each time I went. Regular Saturday show. I think people look at the stands and say O there going under nobody's in the stands. I don't have a clue what a promotors break even point is. Mercer has the parking area thru 1 and 2 and there is a good amount of people there in and out of there cars. I hate to say it but if PPMS can stay open then we are all missing the boat somewhere. Yea I've been there and so where the other 75 people. I don't know how small the crowd was but it was small. Me personally, I like the racing better at MRP...

I personally really like the idea, and yes I am a racer.

 

I think it gives the jr. sprints, mini stocks, and mod lights an opportunity to race and head to another track and be able to race 2 times in 1 night if that's what they want to do. Also the track isn't going to dry out tremendously with this group, they just don't have the wide tires and all the H.P. to do so.

 

If you run hot laps I feel they should be timed and start the heats accordingly. I hate drawing a pill and Joe Blow who isn't up to par gets to start on the front row, and he may not cause a wreck but everyone else behind him trying to pass him get together and create a wreck. Again Joe Blow may not have caused it but he kinda did by being not up to par yet...

 

As far as the 7 pm start for the other classes, the sun will be almost down by this time and the track should stay halfway decent. Wouldn't be any different then Lernerville start time. I don't care if they don't rotate the classes but it would be nice if they do so further into the year.

 

Heck if you are one of those people that only want to see a specific class your stay at the track would be shorter this year given the 2 different start times for them.

 

Keep an open mind and you never know what this could bring, We need to keep bringing in the youth and not put down these places or they no longer will exist. So if you are one of those people who complain go get a business loan and run your own track or buy one and see if it is as easy as we all think.

 

Good Luck to all the race teams and Happy Racing!

First of all asshole, it wasn't my idea to call the sponsors and complain. Learn how to read.

Sorry your cooch is sore, but it's not half as sore as it's going to be by the time Miss Vikki and your pimp Gary get done strapping it to you and the rest of the Lemmings known as Lernerville's Stock class.

There's something else you better get right with. The crowd ain't there to watch you. Most of the crowd isn't there to watch the back gate, that's the way it is, deal with it. Maybe you would feel better if you get a vinyl wrap with some unicorns and a rainbow on it.

BTW, great attitude regarding whether fans show up or not. Way to promote the sport.

You can only truly appreciate, advocate, and get behind the logical reasoning for this if you help pay for or repair the damage to a competing race car, and truly care about the safety of the competitors.
