I agree with Chris and Carmichael...another class is needed and "wanted" in my opinion. On the Thursday show for June 7th, we ran the last heat race, and barely had time to fuel the car for the B-Main...luckily we did, and made the A-Main...but it would have been nice to have a little more time to make some adjustments to the car and double check some things before firing off again...Looking forward to this week!

GOOD MOVE LPS!! Some other teams need to get the chance to have fun two nights a week!!

Kenny i was there and if he only sold 350 GA tickets then either a bunch snuck in or were let in free because it sure looked like there were more than that in the stands. The 1st thursday they didnt start until 45 minutes past the advertised start time. On a normal Saturday they finish the sprint feature "about" 10. With 1/2 the cars in the pits they STILL finished at 10. Please get the show started on time so we can get out a little earlier. That being said I dont think the show will run longer with the added class taking up the downtime. Flame me if you want but I have to work the next day and I would really like to be able to go to these races and not lose sleep.

I've had my sprint there every Thursday since it started and I think one more class would benefit everyone. Owner, driver, fans. One class (if the track makes everyone hussle) should not slow down show much at all but will keep the down time away, give everyone time to get ready for the next race, and make the track
More money which will insure a race track can stay alive. I think it's awesome to have two nights a week local and thank Lps for the opportunity.
