Its all about skills

Many sponsors prefer someone that will promote the product over "A Main driving skills"

I look at it the same way. its based on driving skills. I don't think someone should be forced to race will much faster guys just because he can promote a product or got a hook up.

Not trying to sound like a D here...but why do you keep complaining and a negitive nancy for series you don't run??

On a postive note thanks to TR for a great show and great track again! Love the moguls!

Im going to predict Peoria will have the same turnout,maybe just over 100. So it should be another great chance to move up in points.

Thinking about next round in Peoria, I just wanted to bring up the issue of the wood ramp that RCR has in place. Video can be found on the MWNS Facebook page and it looks like the plans are to use it at round 4. It seems that there have been some differences in opinion of having the ramp. Personally I must say I don't like the idea because it is unprofessional, ruins the image of the track and most importantly it's a safety issue. With it being short of the full lane width by about 2 feet that will create issues if 2 or 3 cars are racing side by side and one doesn't make it fully on the ramp- potentially launching uncontrollablly into a marshall. To make a proper decision I wanted to propose a vote for everyone that plans to go to decide whether to keep it or not. I understand it is ultimately the track organizers decision but I think we racers should have a say as we are the ones supporting the series. The solution I see is just making a full width dirt jump(there's a lot of time until the race for a change) or removing it in general. But removing the jump brings up the issue of not having a "big air" jump that this season has incorporated (I don't thing it's that big in general and they're not as big as the jumps seen in the series so far, but thats a whole nother issue). If we all weigh in, we should be able to come to an agreement. Like I said, besides the fact that the ramp is visually unpleasant (putting it nicely) it is also a safety hazard. Lets figure this out.
