Mansfield speedway had one of those "speedway ambulances" (I believe it was under whoever ran it last before it was paved) that thing was so small that if they put a stretcher in it, the injured dudes feet woulda been hanging out the back (all I can figure is that the stretcher must have been pushed in to the point that the injured drivers head was right next the ambulance driver?

Mr. and Mrs. Ford provide a venue for low budget and beginners to race. You learn to race in traffic and to be aware of your surrounding competitors at all times. When your talent level exceeds what is presented at this level, there are other tracks that might interest you more. The Ford`s are good people who are fair. You will get the same track ,flagman ,wrecker man , scorekeeper`s as everyone else who signs into said program. The purse structure is the same every week so there is no surprises there. As like in all other issues in life that humans are in charge of deciding, sometimes it won`t go your way. The ambulance and safety crew is there for your inspection. If you don`t feel these services are adequate , then that should be your basis to compete at this track or any other for that matter.

This is just my opinion derived from the years we have competed there. Paragon is unique to itself and albeit through all it`s alleged shortcomings from this post, the bottom line is you went there to have fun. You have picked a sport in which you must have a dirt surface shaped with turn arounds at each end to operate your equipment. Paragon provides this and 100 dollars if you complete enough laps in your feature to get scored as a competitor. So please from now on guys , before you bash the Ford`s on a medium that is readily available world wide, remember they aren`t on here bashing what makes your living.

Very Very well said.Maybe the original poster should buy the place and run it as he/she sees fit

If there were no safety issues, I would agree with your post. However, every track from the Taj Mahals to the country tracks should be safe.

It is for sale don't like it buy it and and run the program the way you see fit. I myself am a budget racer if it were not for paragon I would not be able to run a sprint car. I feel that alot of guys that run there on a weekly basis feel the same. Thank you Keith and Judy from all that appreciate what you do.

I don't believe anyone was bashing the Fords! Keith and Judy are nice people! There are just some safety concerns that need addressed and then everything would be just fine.

I was just going by the title of the post J.T. When it is implied that your business is a joke , this context is telling me that the poster is directing their ire toward the party who is responsible for it`s operation.

I understand what you mean, Dan.
