I am either going to convert it into and onroad/ oval (dependent on the cost), or a 1/10 scale offroad track. If it is converted into another offroad track what would you all like to see on it?

I would say make the track Slash and 10th friendly. Slash was your biggest class with 21 people I believe. You can still make it fun for 1/8th scale you just have to work on jump spacing. Like a slash could double double a jump and 1/8 could quad it. Nice track just need some tweaking. Looking forward to coming back.
On a different note your last big race was my first time me and my son came. You just need to state what exactly you are charging and what you are doing for prizes and awards. I was a little discuraged that we drove almost 2 hrs to get there and things changed. Not a good way to make a first impression. But loved the track. Looking forward to coming back again.

NOT QUITE SURE WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT THINGS CHANGING. A SPECIAL EVENT RACE IS ALWAYS MORE THAN THE REGULAR $15, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED. FOR THE $25 SPECIAL RACE FEE YOU GOT PRIZES, ALL YOU COULD EAT AND DRINK INCLUDED AND THE NEXT RACE WOULD ONLY COST THE PARTICIPANTS $5. NOT TO MENTION, ENTRY TO THE FALL SPECIAL RACE ON AUG. 9TH FOR $10. SO, THE WAY WE LOOK AT IT EVERYONE MADE OUT PRETTY GOOD.
THAT IS 3 RACES FOR $40!! (WHICH IS LESS THAN $ THE USUAL $15.)THIS WAS DONE AS A GOOD WILL GESTURE TO SHOW HOW MUCH WE APPRECIATE YOUR RACING WITH US ON A DAY WHEN OTHER TRACKS WERE OPEN.

It is midnight and the stars are out. GOOD SIGN. Hasn't rained. I walked out on the track and some clay stuck to me shoes, but not too bad. The little puddles of water are gone. So far it looks like we are racing. Remember folks this is a regular race weekend races start at noon, and you need to be registered and paid in full by 1130 so your info can be put in the computer and the racing starts on time. I will address some of the issues today at the drivers meeting. The racers from last week are extended the reduced race fee for this week as mentioned. For those individuals racing will be $5 per class, and $15(1st class) $10 (each additional class) for the rest of the racers. Check back for another update between 6-7am. I am headed to walmart... Later, G

Well folks bad news between 2am and now it rained. It was only calling for 10% chance of shower. Sun is coming out now, and breezy, but forecast now calls for up to 30% chance of scattered showers.
So if you are a gambling person maybe, but not likely. If we don't race this weekend... I will extend the discount next week to our JUNE 14 Racers. Thanks G

Couple of question?
How much per team to race.
How long does each member have to race.
