Hats of to Joe and LPS!
 

2 charter buses to The Burg and paid admission for all 79 fans!!

Now that is unheard of in this day and age! #allfansmatter!

Now that is cool! Spiker is a good guy!

This is awesome!

That's great!!

Well done!

Thanks again to Joe & Jill for the day of fun

Re: Hats of to Joe and LPS!
 

And apparently a free t shirt I was up in the stands when they opened the main gate and see this sea of yellow come in and figured out pretty quickly that it was the LPS crew. I had no idea not just the travel but he paid the gate. WOW!

I'll never forget the day I arrived way early to a race and he was throwing a party for his construction crews with a full spread of chops, burgers, metts bratts. Corn Cob. Slaw, The works and thats what it was a private party. About two pm LPS Insider goes around to about everyone on the hill and said COME EAT, There is plenty and probably fed several hundred fans on top of his crews. Not only did the probably cost him a small fortune then, But later at the concessions as well as I could barely eat a nacho's later in the evening.

Thanks Joe and mainly for bringing LPS back to glory but the other things as well!
Didn't he also once hold a free fan night that kinda backfired a bit as it was a little over capacity?

Joe has done an excellent job with LPS. Just look at how much the track has improved since he took over. Not only is he improving the track he is improving the fan experience. This is just another reason he is one of the best promoters out there. This simple gesture has probably gained him a few more die hard fans. Yes it probably cost him a little bit of money but I'm sure he will easily recoupe it from those same fans in the future.

Don't forgot the free t-shirt, that had to cost atleast $3-5 per shirt to have made so thats another $237 - $395 just for the people who went, hard to tell how many he had made.

I've been a car owner, a race fan, and a track owner and this jester of the buses, t-shirts, admission, etc. might just be the neatest thing I have seen. Had to be a fun ride. I always tried to go out of my way to cater to the loyal race fans, but this goes a step beyond. I don't know Joe and I have never been to LPS, but way to go Joe. I hope the 'burg' cut them a break on admissions.

If he isn't promoter of the year, there is no justice!

Re: Hats of to Joe and LPS!
 

If Haubstadt isn"t running I'm at LPS ( 10 minute ride vs a 6 hour round trip drive) Every time I'm there as Joe walks up the steps he always thanks me for coming and saying nice things about his track. I tell him if what I say about his track wasn't true I wouldn"t have said it. The improvements have really made the place a great track to view races, I love the top concrete cuz seems I always met friends or a new IOW member, the friendly staff greet you like long time friends and make you feel welcome and the same at the concession stands , good food at a reasonable price, a announcer who knows what he is talking about and doesn"t ramble on and on, and always great racing. Now he does this WOW it doesn"t get any better than that. Joe & Jill Thanks for what you have done in the past and I can"t wait to see the future :8::9:

Re: Hats of to Joe and LPS!
 

Amazing job by all involved, thank you for caring and taking care of the fans. Now this is just a thought and I have no complaints at all but how about one time the driver gets a pass? Please dont take this a bitchin at all just thinking out loud. Every track owner / operator does a great job in my opinion but this is above and beyond being a good promotor

Thank you very much
