Where's everybody at???

[geeman]

All everybody talked about was how excited they were that Jeff stepped up and leased the track instead of it closing down. Now nobody is showing up to race???
We better all start showing up to race or we won't have a track at all next year. Hard to keep a track open on the numbers weve been pulling!

Ok I'm done venting now!

[geeman]

No/e guys are holding there own, but wheres all the super pro cars???

I agree.... the turn out this year has been light. We have had some decent turn outs a couple of times. We need "local" racers to support and promote our track!! There is no reason we cannot have 30 plus in s/pro every week, 16 plus in the quicks every week. You will miss having the "option" to race at your home track when it is closed down.

Tired of you and Geeman winning all the time!!! ;D

For one thing, there is just not many new people getting involved in our sport.
I dont know why the street class hasnt taken off and got big.

Jody and I both had to work the weekend of the big money race, how was the turnout for it?

Maybe the carcount will go up when it cools off.

I for one enjoy being able to drive 15 to 20 miles to race at our track. I have missed a couple of races because my car has been having problems. And It looks like I may miss a few more with my power glide issues.

The heat does not bother me that much because I am going to race reguardless... But I have heard a handfull say that they wish we could start later because of the heat..

I have also heard others say they think the count is down because of the heat..

Either way.. I enjoy what Jeff and everone is doing to keep the track up and going. I am also looking forward to having a dirt track back in Wichita Falls.

I know its expensive, but I think we could get the spectator head count up if we could do some sort of advertising. I have really been susprised at how many people do not know where the track is at, and that we even still race out there.. Maybe a few radio plugs a week could help.. News paper ad... Like I said. I know it cost to do that.. but maybe it will help.. Seems when the Big Boys came out to race and we had some things on TV about it.. There seemed to be more people out there..

Just my 2 Cents..

I wish Jeff and Everyone the best !!

I should be back out soon. I have been having to replace things on my car that my bigger motor needs. Everytime I replace something it is not cheap. I hope to be at the next bracket race if I get everything completed. Then purepontiac can kickass again not that it will help s/pro guys out but it will help in no e ;D

Do like the OTS guys did and go to some of the local businesses and ask to sponser a few radio or TV adds.

i make it out there every weekend i can with my street car and i usually bring a few friends with to get the interest in running at the track instead of the street. Really kinda dissapointed with the turn outs on bracket nights for the street class, ive tried racing a few times and there never seems to be enough people there.

This Friday I am going to see if a group of people want to go out and run. I also like having a local track, it has been a small crowd going for sure. Wish the kids would run on the track instead of Kemp. Im sure their parents can spot them 20 to be safe.

[bunkered13]

i should be there again this friday. i would really like to see more street cars come to race here instead of endangering others on kemp street like previously stated.

I posted it on my Facebook page and also got some guys from up here at work. I'm guilty of not going as much as I should. Also told one of the guys at NX to spread the word.
