Schedule shows racing tonight. This incorrect schedule hurt some people on Saturday because it still showed 3 start time when it was actually 12.

From what I know, I was under the impression that Brad was on vacation until Sunday when racing would resume.

They still do race on Wednesday evenings. Just not tonight (7-23-14) as I believe the owner is out of town. There will be practice though. One would hope that the simplicity of the Google calendar that shows the scheduled races would be properly utilized and correctly updated.

OK, so generally speaking they do run every Wednesday barring special circumstances..... Correct?
I just don't want to sink money into stuff to run twice a month, if I do it I will be out every Wednesday. That's actually why I stopped coming to on road when they first put in dirt. They were alternating, then sometimes went two Wednesdays offroad back to back...etc. The schedule was just meh at that time.

In any case best bet is to check this forum if you have a long drive to the track or making plans etc. (the general GA forum, as there are 3 - 4 running HS threads)

As long as the signup clip board is in plan site on the counter the Wednesday night crew will race! Even if it's just 2 people we will race.

I know the schedule and information has been misinformed, there is a plan in motion to make some changes in the scheduling as far as who does the scheduling and publishing the information..
In Brad's case he has been running the whole show at Hot Shots, at home and at work. What makes his situation different from other track owners is Hot Shots being an indoor track he can run anytime with no concern of darkness or weather or neighbors. Some racers like running Weds night, I like Friday night, some Sat and some Sunday, so what does Brad do he tries to please all the racers.
Right or wrong he is trying make the racers happy, so maybe we the racers should use this forum to help communicate what our plans are about when we plan to come race that would help let everyone have an idea of how many will be racing that night or day.
I'm going to talk with Brad after his vacation about some changes to many areas of Hot Shots as well as the track itself. Everyone knows money is what makes things happen this will be a part of how fast these changes will take place as long as Brad agrees to give them a try.
I want to stay just a racer at most just a helper, but I can see where help is needed to make these changes happen, I will do my part, there will be other areas where help will be needed which I don't know how to do it, so I plan to ask a few of my racing friends to take the step and help get these changes in the works and on the right path. Once these paths have been laid the work will be minimal.
I know we are racing Sunday 27th July, 2014, watch this forum to make sure what time.
One step at a time, Carl

Schedule
I personally like the weekends for racing since my work schedule
Has me working at night m-f so I miss week races, not sure how
Many on type of work schedule but if a track was open during
Week days lil earlier than noon I wouldn't have problem paying or
Buying membership for practice sessions, and I'd like to thank
You all involved for hotshots , brought me back to the hobby
And last 2 races realized how much I have missed it , just throwing
My 2cents worth , maybe others chime in on what schedules work
For them help the crew organize some schedules .

That's great insight Carl. I know it's all about the money for Brad as far as Hotshots is concerned. Personally I would love if it was setup where there was 2 practice days a week and 2 race days. Wed & Sat practice and Friday & Sunday race days. A lot of the time folks have more fun during practice rather than racing. Just my 7 and 1/2 cents. I'll go with the flow.

That being said, I am currently thinking about trying offroad even though I know I'm not that great at it. I think the weekday night option is nice for some people. Weekends honestly are just too busy for some people.
I know that Hotshots can't and certainly shouldn't cater to an ex that is thinking about coming back, but I think there has to be others that like that format.
