Default Racing at Ricks

Would Friday be a bad day because then we wouldn’t be fighting for Dalton on Saturday? Just a question. I know it would be hard to do an off road track but I think if you treat people with respect like the way Deion treats his people then you will have a better chance of drawing a crowd of people to race. That is just my two cents. I am glad that people are discussing it because it shows interest.

There is a lot of dirt oval racing around east Tennessee. You could possibly get visitors from other tracks to race.

ummmm just play it by ear right now some may say this or that but once things get up and running they will show up plus some sundays i sometime be in the area i see alot of newbies out there @ ricks so i would say put a sign up about races coming soon visit the track talk to newbies to draw a crowd then go from there because you get the newbies the veteran drivers have fresh meat to grind... just play it by ear one more thing, Dion offer something i wish i had the time to go visit him was that he offer a practice class sometime during the week....just do things to bring the crowd

I am very interested in racing. I am a fan of this. Any way very nice forum. Thanks for taking me as a member. Can anybody discuss about the specifications of the cars which are participating in the new race.
