Alex - please don't make loudon out to be a fantastic track for road racing... YET. But c'mon... a gesture of "no gate fees this weekend" or "free for spectators this weekend" would be more than fair.
wake me again JL and I'll take you and your Little (cough cough) dog hostage this time :wub:Quote:

Race Fees
Entry Fee
Camping/Power Fee
Transponder Rental Fee
Higher Practice Costs
My trip to VIR with WERA cost me about 200 more (gas not included) than typical Loudon weekend.
So what of the Center garages, power or no power for this weekend?

i know this:deathslap:Quote:

Its been echoed a million times, but I'll say it again: If you want anything to change at the track, you're going to need to find someone to represent the racer's interests and act as a liason between the powers that be and all of the different race teams.
I hearby nominate Jackie :jackie: as the LRRS Track Facilities Liason. Do I get a second?Quote:

I'm not a racer, but I have quite a few friends who would benefit from some type or organization. This isn't just about electricity or the fact that the infield looks like the Big Dig, its also about safety, convenience, race attendance, etc. There needs to be some type of organization and a unified voice. If one racer says "I'm pissed off, I'm not going to race." no one gives a shit. If all of the racers say "We are not going to race unless things improve." its a much different story.But wtf do I know.Quote:

Yes, but the AMA Racing Committee spent more time fighting than anything else. They couldn't even agree on how the committee should be run (from what I know... I'll admit my knowledge is limited). AMA is a huge organization and is much more difficult to organize than a small club racing series.Quote:

First no intercom so I can't tell where the hell I'm supposed to be on my first race weekend. Yea, that was fun.
Now we don't have any electricity? Lovely!
Sorry to be alittle off topic but Anyone know the policy if you leave shit up there in a garage? I called and emailed Wanda with no response. I left an Amsoil box up there in garage 9-10 with abunch of shit in it and would love for it not to be thrown away...think they clear the place out or might have it?
Everyone needs to STOP getting there panties in a bunch. The info you are getting off the "internet" is NOT 100% accurate.
There's an off chance that they may have it up front or in the scales garage. Maybe Sandy may have noticed it and brought it home. You can always ask.
Unfortunately, unless someone put it aside, there's a good chance it got thrown out. The guys who clean up don't really know what their looking at. They just assume it's junk if you left it behind. Some of the weirdest stuff get's left at the track. Some people treat it as their personal dumping ground.
it's gone.Quote:

I think that's kind of the point... where are people supposed to get this information? If it were disseminated in an organized fashion and everyone could go to one place for updates, it would be one thing, but when you have a track that doesn't see a need to keep its patrons updated on things that directly effect their ability to race, it leads to rumor and speculation.Quote:
