Gerry Olsen tried it when he had the track and the FANS didn't support in the numbers needed to keep it going. Don't blame Olsen as he did spend his money to try to make a weekly series. He did more than just about every keyboard jockey out there to promote races. Cars didn't support it either. Perris doesn't run weekly as fans and cars are coming in droves for that to happen and what happen in the 70's is just that, it happened. Very few 1/2 mile tracks have weekly shows. you can count them on one hand.
Our racing is a dying sport. enjoy and support your local tracks while they are here. There is too much for people to do and the cost of everything in the sport keeps going up for the tracks, fans and racers.
