Really had plans not to post anymore, but really hate to see the O'Conners and Bob Sargent get shots taken at their events because they are affiliated with USAC. Bob and the OConners are in the business of race promotions, they are not one off promoters, they understand the importance of an "Event" and lifelong fans. They are at the top of the game in track prep, pre-race promotions, and "fan friendly, well run events. They want you to enjoy this event so you will come back. SO, do not let negative comments prevent you from attending one of their events, it will be ran smoothly and on time. They will only cancel if the weather dictates it.

A race promoter loses money when they cancel an event, they are out advertising, man hours, wear and tear on equipment...ect... Imagine working all week and on Friday your boss says, weather bad, everybody go home, and .. no pay this week because we did not get finished??? Then when you quit that job, do not go into race promotions because it happens to them all the time!!
