If you didn’t go you wouldn’t believe how great the entire night went. I mean the racing was “AWSOME”!!! The track was smooth and fast and had a perfect cushion in both corners. I helped out with the pre-race announcing while Joe Jeffries and Lora Jacobson worked the radio show in the pit area and I can tell you right from the start the crowd was pumped up!!! We had people from everywhere and I had a lot of fun talking to them and finding out where they were from. A lot of the sprint car fans were first timers but by the end of the night they had became full timers. The rain threatened but eventually left and the action quickly resumed. The track was to say the least “FAST”!!! I heard no complaints whatsoever. Oh we had several suggestions and a lot of input but “ZERO” complaints. Some of the fans including myself had some doubts about the race cars but not so much about the car counts but the quality of the cars because of the track being a non-sanctioned venue. Well, it didn’t take long to get an answer. The quality definitely showed up to compete in each of the classes. Speaking of the classes some were concerned about the speedway’s choice of running five classes but the concern’s went away when the fans saw that we were on track for a 3 to 3 and half hour turn around. That is of course before 45minute rain delay. Now think about that, 5 classes in under 4 hours!!!! So, for those fans that say,"I don’t want to sit threw all those support classes” you might want to re-think where you’re going next week because the V.C.S staff are not and will not jack around. They keep the race going at a darn good clip. The crowd was unbelievable!! It had to be the biggest crowed for a weekly show that has been there in years. The car count was double from last year and track was the best I’ve seen in the last 3 years. The entire staff strives to make you feel welcome and appreciated. We even had a bouncing castle for the kids that was free of charge. One parent told me that her 3 young boys were on spring break and that this was the most peace she has had all week. Needless to say there were a lot of wore out kids by the end of the night. All in all for the first night I have to give the entire V.C.S staff an A+!!!!!! Can’t wait until next SATURDAY NIGHT!!!!:thumb
