Get a grip red asses. :moon: Geez. :headbang The new group has had less than 5 races at the facility. Give them a chance, they will get it right. I'm sure some of you experts would rather have the place sit idle with weeds growing through the track than have a dusty track with a NEW group that is learning. It's a wonder anybody wants to promote anymore. I sure as hell wouldn't want to do it with some of you coming to the races.

As for the sun issue. I'll wait as long as I have to if the drivers can't see. I've been at a race track when somebody was killed, I don't want to ever see that again. Especially if the show is moved up because some jackass is pissed because he got home a little late. Stay home.

I hope some of you people on here aren't this angry in regular life.

Ya know, I really should complain about something. But my family is safe and healthy, we have plenty of food to eat, I can adjust the thermostat so I'm comfortable at home and if I want to I can go to a race tomorrow night. If I do go to a race tomorrow and get dusty, I've got hot water to shower with and if it runs a little late, I can take a nap Sunday afternoon.
So it seems I just can't think of anything to gripe about. I'm sorry.

Please also consider that the track guy for DHK has never prepared a track before this year. I for one think he is doing a amazing job. I have only been to races at THAT but this last race was the fastest I have seen the track packed in. It was 1/2 way packed solid in turns 1 and 2 by hot laps session two.

I think DO is right! Get rid of the huge wheel packers and let the cars pack it in. If it digs and ruts up a little, so be it!

PS - The hypocrisy of the "respected elder members" of this board is astounding. They are the first ones to make a hero out of a poster who posts something they agree with, no matter how asinine, yet are also the first to berate and make a black sheep out of someone who has the audacity to disagree with them or tell it like it is in a fashion they don't approve of. It gets old, but I come here for information not found elsewhere so I have to put up with it. It sucks.

Amen DO..... plus everybody should retire the Sheeps Foot. If Manzy and Perris can have a pretty racey track 90% of the time there is no reason they can not do the same here. I have seen Manzy back in the day work the track for a week before the western world with little rain or humidity....and have a pretty good track.

Thanks Gregg, but I was just basically paraphrasing what you posted the other day. I just refuse to be miserable (and I TRY not to make anyone else miserable either, although my wife may dispute that.:O

Peace & love to all.
God bless our Troops at home and abroad.

I agree with D.O. and Stagger. Water the pi$$ out of the tracks during the week and if it's that greasy give the cars a second set of hot laps. Have the cars pack the track and yes all sheeps foot monstrosity's should be sitting at the bottom of a lake somewhere. :wink
