Let's hope the water truck is making plenty of laps around the track prior to Friday and Saturday. As hot as it's been, it could be a dry slick weekend.

I should have specified that to Mud Packer. If the promoter is interested, make it just USAC sprint cars and one support division. That would be profitable.

On a side note, how was Gas City...

Totally agree on the parking price and charge. Just another money grab. I remember the first year they had the IMS turn 4 gate open and you could park on the street and walk in. That didn't last...

Good info. Lawrenceburg needs a good late model show. I hate that phrase "off topic'. WTH....we're all race fans and adults. If it's a topic promoting local racing, bring it on!

Well if I'm gonna complain, I'm gonna man up and praise, too. Kudos to Eldora for their track prep for the World 100 weekend. They went back to work and spent long hours tilling and watering the...

Congrats to Levi. That's a big-time job promoting Eldora.

Flag, you're right. Let's hope Levi can help the track crew. Even Tony was overseeing track prep last night.

John,

Last week I asked The Maverick sprint car post if there was a website. Got no reply. It's baffling to me that any new racing series, especially one in its second season, does not have a...

$40 a pit pass seems pretty steep for a regular night. I guess the racers gotta pay to keep the Action Track alive.

Reading all these comments about "what would you do" has me wondering. What track has done the best job promoting their sprint week date and what did they do regarding promotional efforts?
