ATTENTION IN THE HADDOCK:

[mmracer37]

If the main power to the garages is not the restored by the weekend, they are supposed to hook up generators. So, the garages and bathrooms will have power one way or another.


HOWEVER, if you you camp in the grass, you might wanna bring a generator.

Edit: Oh yeah, in case anyone doesn't know, I am a rider rep too.

[seth399]

it's gone.

but hey, look at the bright side... rock band has been a blast! I thought I wouldn't touch it until winter, but one test run on the drums, and I'm semi-hooked

haha glad to hear it.....but crap! I hope someone at least opened it and had a use for the chain and expensive oil

If we make 50k / weekend, and Nastycar makes 13 mil/ weekend,
then we would have to race for more than 26 years to equal one Nastycar event.

Organize and bitch, disorganize and bitch, it does not matter until you bring 13 mil to the table.

Be thankful for what we have. Feel left out in the cold? Go race Nelson's Ledges.

[nmendell]

The info you are getting off the "internet" is NOT 100% accurate.

BLASPHEMY! SACRILEGE! HERESY!

cool, thanks for the info mike!

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.

Hmmm, that's not entirely accurate either. Every person who has a racing license and has supplied their email address should receive email updates from LRRS. If you haven't supplied an address, you can at anytime. Just send an email to "lrrsracing@tampabay.rr.com" All this was mentioned at BOTH riders meetings.

Now Jackie, I know you don't race so I didn't expect you to know that. Don't think I'm pickin on you. I still u!

[BLACK SQUIRREL]

There are children in Korea Who have no place to race at all. I am grateful Loudon is there and They let me ride there. Sometimes its great Sometimes its not so great. We are the same people who can Wreck a bike beyond recognition and with some help from friends some parts duct tape and zip-ties Get back out there to compete in Record time. We are stronger then this.

This will not stop us, Things will be better when they are done

[palanon]

Your rider Rep's are all over this. Sounds like Mike and B.J. are burning up the phone lines for their peeps.

Thank them in person this weekend for working so hard for the riders and families.


From NEAR

"I just talked with Wanda, and they are going to have generators to supply power to the Center/South/ red-headed step-child garages this weekend.

See y'all soon.

can those of us that don;t race add our addresses to the list so we can know what is going on too? I am a corner worker and would find this type of information very useful as i camp in the infield as well.

So will the infield bathrooms be shut down? or just dark?

OMG U MEANS TEH INTARWEBS CAN HAS LIES???

btw, Jackie, I think it's adorable how you seem to be more upset about this than I am and how you think you know what you're talking about.

you mean you don't think there should be an organization to represent the racers to the track, like um, the loudon road race association? Or reps to represent the racers to the loudon road race association, like um, the rider reps?

I, myself, have been criticizing the methods of neurosurgery studies, because those doctors need my expert advice.

[lrrs699]

i just got off the phone with wanda she said there will be power in garages and the infield bathroom

[mmracer37]

OMG, I can't believe I used the wrong there. It shoulda been their, not there.

I once thought I made a mistake, but I was wrong

[a13x]

I won't say who but, I was told the place (front office ) is lousy with marketing people. If you want a decent job at the track, you have to have a lot of marketing in your resume and be worth six figures.

Really? WTF am I doing working for the Jordan team. I need to apply at NHMS.

[Pittenger5]

Good, when you leave, put in a good word for me.
I suck at marketing, and I'm worth 6 figures if you include the cents after the dollar signs. But I do make a mean dick joke.

Something tells me you couldn't handle more than a month or two doing marketing for roundy round.

You are probably right. Thou money talks!!

[SVRACER01]

wow! this thread blew up! i didnt read all 4 pages so if no one mentioned it, i did hear (not really from the track) that they are bringing in aux power for the center garages. hopefully this will mean a trailer type-heavy duty-run everyones power in the garage as well as the parking lot-kinda power. i wouldnt count on the T6 bathroom having power unless its on a different circuit.
i realize it sucks and hopefully locked power boxes arent in our future but i think we can all agree that NJ and VA are both top level tracks and VIR south has no power and NJ has none in their "infield" either. all 3 tracks at Firebird in AZ are all pavement paddock with no garages and no power. Bette said by the classic we should be good *fingers crossed*

[SVRACER01]

i also want to point out that Bette told me that priorities are upsidedown now, with NASCAR at the top and us at the bottom.
she doesnt like it that way, and she would much rather have the club racers at the top of the list like it usually is.

[reiobard]

I am curious as to how long locked power boxes would last...

[Honclfibr]

SON OF A BITCH!!!


I assume that we'l still be paying for the garage this weekend..


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!

youre just gonna have to get used to the intercom/PA problem. get a radio.
