You guys crack me up:rolling
So here is top ten reason for not attending a sprint car race

#10 It's to cold

#9 It's to hot

#8 It may be over late

#7 It's to far

#6 There are to many classses

#5 It's to much to get in

#4 It rained out 10 years ago and I'm still pissed

#3 I hate the promoter

#2 The track is too rough

#1 YOUR A TOOL

Not making the list, track is to big, or small or smooth or dark.It's indoors.I can't take in beer.The seating is bad.It's too sunny.I have to park to far away from the gate.The parking lot is dust or unlevel or gravel:headbang

I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS SPORT IS NOT GROWING:doh:

Thank you for a great post. See no.6

And this past weekend at Twin Cities, The Sprint Cars were guests, I dont think you need to be blaming the support classes for the show not getting in, They werent the ones causing 3 or 4 red flags in five laps. Maybe some starters would speed up the process a little bit.

You just aske for it don't you Chris? LOL

Leaving it alone.

I agree with you on this one Chuck,he just had a birthday and hasn't grown up at all.Apparently someone has become a "spokesperson" for a couple of tracks.
IMHO TCRP did all they could to get the show in Saturday Nite. Too many classes, hey I knew that going in, no surprises, show kept moving. Starters, :moon: don't think so.
Rudy you are correct, here we go:headbangWill I be back @ TCRP this Saturday night, damn straight I will.Let the fun begin:rolling

If promoters have enough push trucks, starters aren't needed, I've concluded.

Mason and Company gave it their all.

We? Congrats on becoming a partner.

If the USAC series' cannot draw the car counts the track desires and the promotors can't get enough fans interested in these series' to fill the place, then they need not schedule these races because support classes for those dates are an embaressment for all involved.

I respect the LM guys and the mod guys but the fans for they and the openwheel cars are for the most part nearly non-compatable. They don't care about the open wheel cars and the open wheel fans don't care for them. It's like a perpetual thanksgiving dinner with the cousins you can't stand and annoy you with their long winded stories.

Then again; maybe thats just me.

My family (Me, my Wife and Chris) must be a different breed then because we go to Bloomington every Fri. night to watch sprints and the "support classes",(Chris reports them for the Herald Tmes newspaper) and then we go to Brownstown and watch the Late Models and the other classes. So not all people just like to watch 1 certain division, I like them all.

That's wonderful, Mr. Nunn, but unfortunately there aren't enough people like you and Chris to fill the stands. It is my honest opinion that all of those support classes actually drive more spectatotors away than they draw. I'm one of those people who will not attend a track with more than three classes running, as a spectator. Now, if we go there to race, and there are more than three? Just have to live with it for that night.
