Status Upgrade
 

I usually only lurk on here and very seldom do I make a comment or a thread, and it seems like when I do post something it doesn't get a lot of responses, but I am determined to upgrade my status on this board after this weekend. The Four Crown is my absolute favorite weekend of the year and I am taking in Gas City as well, but no matter how much I enjoy the weekend I have made a promise to myself to come on here Sunday or Monday and complain about something that wasn't perfect. Perhaps I will even threaten to never go to Eldora or another USAC race ever again. I don't know what my complaint will be but I have worked up a few options;

Program drug on, ended too late, track too wet, track too dusty, seats were uncomfortable, food was cold, food too expensive, couldn't bring my own beer in, someone had seat backs, too many cars, not enough push trucks, something about safety, someone is probably cheating and the track/USAC favors them, tickets cost too much, tickets need to cost more for the prize fund, Tony has ruined the joint, or maybe that Midgets are bumper cars over run with children.

Whether it is one of these or something new one thing is for sure, I refuse to go to this whole weekend without complaining about something. I wish you all well in finding your own shortcomings.

Thats Rick for you,picking on us Baby Boomers. I'll give him credit though for thinking out side the box......err i mean urinal........:D:D:D

This will never get you in the door, You first have to stay home then rip some critisim of anything and everything at all the tracks YOU DID'NT go in person too.

That will get you top tier status :)

Have fun.

OFF TOPIC!!! Eldora is in OH! This is INDIANA Open Wheel...:)

Love this post! KB I will also try to find some complaints to help your cause. In fact I’ll start with the dang road construction on RT 30

Well,
I must say that although the racing was fantastic I couldn't get any service for my phone either Friday or Saturday. I couldn't check Dirtdraft for my lineup or Race Monitor to see how racing was going at other venues and I couldn't check the score of the Ohio State game and where I come from that is down right sacrilegious. I must say that if I owned the race track I would have a cell tower for every brand of service and this would never be a problem.
For this shortcoming I have decided to speak with my wallet and I am going to Boycott Eldora for the next 6 months. Perhaps when I return their attitude will be better.

Had the same thing happen the last two times I was there. However the second time I rebooted my phone and it connected fine and no further problems.
