Hey Latrobe....... With the anouncement from Dog-Hollow that they have thrown the towel in for the season....wouldn't this be your chance to bring Latemodels into your program??  There is no other Saturday night track in a hundred mile radius of you running Latemodels.  I see Rick Jones is stepping up every Sunday Night for $1500.00 to win. Latemodels.  Maybe put a deal togetther for a bonus if you can win at both tracks???? End your regular season on Labor Day and then run the September and October every Saturday Night with a Latemodel show.  You would do well.

Just out of curiosity, was it actually announced that they are 1500 to win?  Last I'd seen, it was posted as a 1500 purse, and knowing how that place runs, he could be trying to sweet talk people making it seem like its 1500 to win, when it really isn't.

Who knows with Roaring Knob!!    Worst track in the western PA area when it comes to communicating with competitors, fans and the media!!!  Never sends anything out to the media and doesn't keep their website updated!!!

Last heard they had no safety equipment, 1 tow truck, yet somehow they stay open. Purses like that it is a insult. Mite as well give participation trophies. How they stay open is anyone's guess.

It's been said many times dog hollow wasn't paying the racers, it finally bit him in the ass and he had no other choice, racers and fans quit showing up. You should never be able to promote again.

Marion Center is done.

Lernerville has the stupid ass tire rule and the crate garbage in the sportsman division as racers are looking for a place to run. Mr. Thomson, open your eyes.

Ppms has had a nice field of crates showing up on Saturday night. Good for them.

Regretfully I did not make MRP this year but I hope there doing enough to look into the future.

Blanket hill early rumors puzzle me with Marion center and now dog hollow idle. The place needs brought back from the dead. Unless there going small car classes. Big tracks are not needed a 1/4 mile yes.

They will be doing small car stuff at Blanket Hill from what people have been saying.

Latrobe isnt ready for to try Super Lates at this point. Need to get the surface straightened out and the show more efficient.

Hey Gene ! Why don't you pony up the full purse and maybe they would consider it ! Cause you would make a great promoter !
