Subject: ART WAS IN A LOSE LOSE SITITUATION SATURDAY...SUNDAY WAS A DIFFERENT STORY THOUGH

SATURDAY NO CAR SHOULD HAVE WENT DOWN THE TRACK...NO MATER WHAT HE OR ANYONE WOULD HAVE DONE NO SMALL TIRE TIRE WITH LOTS OF POWER COULD HAVE DID CRAP THERE WITH CONDITIONS LIKE THEY WERE...

I TALKED TO A VOLUNTEER THAT HAD BEEN OUT THERE THE LAST FEW TIMES THAT WORK HAD BEEN DONE AND THE TRACK AND STAGING LANES WERE GETTING SWEPT EVERY WEEK TO GET THE BUILD UP OFF

I FOUND IT STRANGE TO BELIEVE THAT BY SEEING THE STUFF IN THE PICS OF THE STANG AND CANDY BELOW...

SO I VOWED TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THE STORY...I CALLED THE OLD OWNER OF THE TRACK FOR HIS FEED BACK...

THE TRACK LIES IN THE MIDDLE OF OPEN FIEDS...WHEN FARMER PLOW DUST JUST SETTLES ON THE TRACK...ART COULD HAVE SWEEPT THE PLACE THE DAY BEFORE AND IF IT WAS WINDY THERE WAS GONNA HAVE DIRT ON THE TRACK AGAIN OVER NIGHT...

GRASS GROWNING IN THE TRACKS ARE EVEVIDENT BUT WITH GETTING RAIN LIKE WE BEEN HAVING THE LAST FEW WEEKS THE 24D THAT WAS SPRAYED DID NO GOOD BECAUSE IT WAS WASHED OFF BEFORE IT COULD DO NO GOOD..

ART WAS DAMNED IF HE CLOSED FOR THE DAY BECAUSE SO MANY SUPPORTERS MADE THE TRIP AND IF HE DIDNT TRY HE WOULD PISS OFF EVERYONE...I HEAR 2 DIFFERENT STORYS ON THE SPRAYING OF TRACK BITE...I WAS TOLD THAT NONE WAS PUT DOWN ALSO I WAS TOLD ONLY SOME ON RIGHT SIDE ONLY OUT 100FT THOUGH.

ART ALLOWED THE RACEDAY TO HAPPEN TO TRY TO GET SOME SATISFACTION FROM NOT BEING ABLE TO HEAR MOTORS ROAR FOR 8 MTHS...

MY HONEST OPINION IS HE SHOULD HAVE CALLED THE RACE AND TAKE THE LICKING....

BUT WHAT HAPPENS AFTER A DAY OF HELL????????

SUNDAY THE DRAGSTER OF COREY ARNAUD MADE A 8.24 PASS IN THE LEFT LANE AND A 8.25 PASS IN THE RIGHT LANE...

MANY HI HP CARS..SMALL AND BIG TIRE CARES MADE SOME 9 SECOND PASSES....NOT HI 9S EITHER...

THE TRACK WAS RIGHT...THEY WERE ABLE TO SWEEP IT....SCRAPE THE LINE AND SPRAY IT EVECTIVELY

THE TRACK HAS ITS BUMPS AND DIPS LIKE IT ALWAYS HAS HAD BUT IT STILL SERVES THE PURPOSE ON PREPPED DAYS...

READ THIS SLOWLY AND TAKE IT IN DEEPLY

WE NEED TO LOOK AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE HERE...WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IF YOU WERE ART....I WOULD HAVE SHUT IT DOWN FOR THE DAY...INSTEAD HE CHANCED HIS LIABILITY TO LET THE PEOPLE THAT WERE THERE GET THERE FIX IN....ITS HARD TO TELL PEOPLE NO RACE THEN WHEN YOU SAY LETS RACE AND YOU CANT BRING THE TRACK AROUND....

POINT BLANK ART NEEDS HELP OUT THERE....DO WE AS A CLUB WANT TO HELP HIM BY ARRIVING EARLY TO DRAG TIRES AND THE SWEEPER? DO WE AS A CLUB WANT TO SCRAPE THE STARTING LINE TO HELP HIM GET IT LIKE IT NEED BE?

WE HAVE IT EASY...WE JUST HAVE TO PAY 20 BUCKS AND GO RUN OUR STUFF THERE....FOR THE LAST 8 MONTHS HES HAD TO TAKE FROM THE HOUSE FUND TO PAY THE NOTE EVERY MONTH...HE HAD TO DRIVE 400 MILES ROUND TRIP AND WORK 7 DAYS A WEEK TOO...HE GETS NO PLAY TIME....

ART COULD HAVE GIVEN UP YEARS AGO WHEN HE FELL DOWN OFF THEM POLES...BUT HE DIDNT SO THAT THEY COULD HAVE SOME SORT OF PLACE TO PLAY FOR US...THE NEIGHBOR WOULD LOVE TO BUY THE PLACE TO PUT HIS AUCTION ITEMS ON IT...

EVERYONES COMPLAINTS ABOUT SATURDAY WERE VALID...THE SIMPLE TRUTH IS SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP UP AND HELP OUT OR IT AINT GONNA GET NO BETTER

I AM OFF SUNDAY...IF ANYONE WANTS TO GO THERE AND DO SOMETHING TO HELP IMPROVE CONDITIONS IM IN..

I SAY WE CUT A DEAL WITH HIM TO RUN CLUB RACES THERE BUT OUR EFFORTS THAT WILL YEILD SPECTATORS THERE GO TOWARDS REPAVING....WE AS A CLUB WILL PREP THE TRACK FOR LETTING US HAVE OUR FORMAT THERE

THOUGHTS?????????????
