[QUOTE=miledirt;557702]Haubstadt IS a class track of the area
Super thankful for the good surface they provide
2 classes is great. 3 classes is acceptable. I just don't go to tracks anymore that run 5,6 classes and then don't tell you when they are going to run the sprints (or advertised main event).
When I take new fans to the races and we get there at 6, 7 whatever for hot laps, I always tell them that when you go to a dirt show, it's all about the feature. Meaning, you can sit thru practice, the heats, semi, intermission etc...but you pay your 25, 40 bucks for that feature race. Does make it hard with new fans when that feature starts at midnight. (not talking about Haubstadt as they were finished way earlier than that)[/
Many tracks are running 5, 6 even 7 classes because they are:
1) making their purse on the back gate and/or
2.) they have so few cars in attendance they only run 1 heat and a feature so they need 5 or more classes to even have a race night.
