nothing classy about it, just watching out for my racing friends.
Thanks, and anybody that goes, good luck and be safe.

And Dave's right, IMO, I'd be careful, what with the rubber checks, the four car "exhibition race" that paid $200/car, and all......just sayin'
I'm not trying to read too much into it, I'm just saying it seems unprofessional for a promotor to point out something like that. You don't see Mike Miles from Bloomington, Tommy from Gas City, the O'Connor's from Kokomo, Joe Spiker from LPS, or Helfrich from TSS on here doing that kind of stuff.

you don't see them on here period. I don't agree 100% of the time with Mr. Rudisell but at least he IS on here, interacting with the fans, racers and owners AND like he said, he's just watching out for his friends, and he counts the above people as his friends. ASCT, John Gurley etc have gotten on here, made alot of promises and comments, many comments NOT fitting anyone let alone a promoter so they are just having to face the music.......

Its a message board, so people like Dave, you, and me can voice our opinions here. However, as a promotor its good to interact with fans and friends while still having a bit of professionalism. If the guy is going to fail at something then so be it. But I would watch piling on if you are in the same business because someday, you might be in the same position.

Checks ... Why do promoters pay with them ? Good or bad I don`t want one . The ticket booth doesn`t take them nor do the concession stand, picture man or souvenir man .

Now that is off my mind... I hope everyone who attends or goes elsewhere has a great time.

Meanwhile... back at the racetrack.

Dry slick and dusty. Danny Williams looking strong after winning his heat and the dash.
