If a deal can be worked out. How many would be interested in running thunder valley speedway (non wing) but will be scheduled to be off on mmsa events on Friday nights

Why don't ya just get with MMSA and have them come a few times. That's way better than 3-5 cars a week, and they know how to run it smoothly.

Think we already tried racing there last season and ended up not working out.
We had two or three scheduled races that ended up not happening.

I would, but I'm not gonna travel and race for 50 bucks to win or whatever it is. I love that track and wish we would have worked something out this year to race there, but sounds like it probably won't happen again in 2015.

Bobby.... Race with the MMSA .... If we all work together, we can get better car counts. Better car counts will allow us to get better payouts. The payouts will allow you to buy what you need plus cover travel expenses. This last season was fantastic with some of the "to start" money being $125. When it's $50 to win, there's no competition. Winning a feature and then having to tell my friends I was 1st of 3 cars that started ..... Isn't much fun! Jmo

Owning a dirt track isn't as easy as everyone thinks. With the new management at Salem they were not sure they could break even with us. I think we could come up with something with perhaps 2-3 sponsors to make a couple of shows at Thunder Valley happen if we could swing it with the promoter.
At the banquet a non wing open show was discussed, basically SSMS rules. This would be a great track for that. This would allow TQs, Kenyon, Eco tech, focus and the older 1200cc to dust of their cars and run. MMSA members would collect points in the order they finish amongst the other MMSA legal cars only. |
