Subject: The newest Soap Opera, starring Jen Hillbilly.

(1) If you and the forty other racers have something to tell the track owners, then tell "them", it's not necessary to attempt to defame a man's business over this hobbyist board.
(2) What the track owners decide to do with their track is up to them; that is their business decision; just like it would be your husband's decision to not build a steel bldg for somebody, for whatever reason. IE: If you don't like the conditions, then leave your hillbilly car at the house.
(3) Personally, I as well as others, used to frequent this particular track often. It has always been fine for my car while putting down low 10's. That same track hooked Andy's Camaro while he outran me. He ran in the 9's that day, skying the front, while in the relatively unprepped left lane.
(4) Furthermore, I've seen Bill Doucet out there experimenting with hardware much more serious than what we've got and running way faster than anybody I know without complaining about the conditions.
(5) Those guys, the track owners & attendants, though admittedly small in #, have always treated me as "family"
and sincerely cared when I damaged my own parts. You might enjoy the same treatment, if you could put a muffler on it.
(6) You are not old enough to know the history of this track and you are not in the "circle."
(7) When you complain, you are simply burning a bridge that need not be burned; there are only so many outlaw tracks that are lenient on tech.
(8) If you think that you can do a better job, I'm sure that the facility is for sale. Not much, maybe only a quarter million. Asphaltic concrete is inexpensive, you know.
(9) You guys have the DT's so bad that you were going to pull "somewhere" because you are alot like me in that you just enjoy the s%*% out of racing and you enjoy the comraderie of people that have the same interests that you have. (heck, I thought about going that rainy Saturday just to pick on you. (he he he)

By the way, Turbo Mike just called wanting to hook 'em up but I had to decline the offer. Damn, I hate that! I was right in the middle of drilling a hole in the passenger compartment for a transmission dipstick. Just not enough room now that the big pipes are in. Oh well! It was drizzling anyway.
