Re: One Big Reason Why Not To Have a Pavement Midget
 

Actually, open practice night is cheaper for the teams. This keeps them from NEEDING to schedule a private test at the track, which is much more expensive...

Now, if we were to eliminate all testing, that would be doing something. Unfortunately, I'm not sure there's a pavement track out there that can survive without the aid of the proceeds from private testing, or in this case, an open practice the day before the race.

I'm still waiting to hear from him!!! hahahahaha Apparently he suddenly can't find that checkbook.........

Re: One Big Reason Why Not To Have a Pavement Midget
 

It wasn't my checkbook, Don. And the checkbook wasn't as big as you believe. Not free and not cheep, but not near as big as you complain that it needs to be to compete and win. The point is, a group of guys worked hard, prepared well and worked together to obtain a comon goal of success. THAT is what racing is all about....

I guess I just get sick and tired of the complainers. Sorry didn't mean to rain on you parade it's all yours.

As far as my checkbook goes. It's only openned to guys that take what they have, bust their A** to make it competative and work hard to reach their dreams....Sorry Dude :11;

Re: One Big Reason Why Not To Have a Pavement Midget
 

Apparently you are in the long line of people, Mr. Paper Bag Head anonymous poster, that spend, spend and spend more to win a sickly and pathetic $2500 and have all but ruined midget racing. Congratulations.

THAT -used to be- what racing is all about..........

Now days, midget/pavement racing, seems to be about buying the latest-greatest-trick-weight jacking-weight saving thingamajigs, and throwing new tires on the car faster than a NASCAR team does.

All those newfangeled goodies and tires.....they cost money, and lots of it!

Going racing the way you describe it as 'being all about', lets you run in the back, or miss the show.
