I realize now why we hardly ever go to Charlotte County. Worst run program I ever witnessed! Been to over 1000 races all over the world and the first time we ever left before the late model feature (main event) was complete.
I can’t for the life if me figure out why, why you start the main event you been babbling about in large font all week at 10:15!!!! You run those factory stock junkers for 25 laps!!! Give me a break, the race takes an hour to run and the actual race is settled out in under 10 laps then it’s just cars going around the track – no competition whatsoever! 15 laps tops for that division on any night.
What track in the world then has an autograph session bringing out the late model only to return them to the pits!!! Instead they run the go karts and 30 laps, are kidding me!! Interview the top 4 drivers which takes another 10 minutes, next time interview the whole field why don’t you. “I want to thank my grandpa, my 3rd grade teacher, my goldfish and my pet snake!!” Here’s an idea instead of interviewing the whole go-kart field, how about telling the paying fans who came for the self proclaimed “Greatest Show in the World” late model race, who is actually in the race!! That down time before the cars reached the track would have been time to give the line-up! I mean there were 3 #77 cars in the race! It would have been nice to know who was actually in the race!! Idiots!!!
Having a full field of cars is great, we all read about it leading up to it, but run a stinking consi to get the field to 24 cars, which is pretty much the normal in racing for a 100 lap event. Just because everybody is gushing about the large car count doesn’t mean start them all!
The event finally - they ran at least 100 laps of caution before 40 laps of racing was complete cause there were too many cars on the track and half of them can’t drive. Who is that knob with the flag in turn one who for laps was trying to line up the last three cars of a 30 car field!! Who cares at that point!! Then we get to wait another ten laps waiting for the push truck to push start car 33 who by that time was several laps down and in the pits for Christ sake!!! At least at that point I wasn’t the only fan in stands upset, as many started voicing their displeasure with how long it took! 11:00 the race wasn’t even half way. Don’t give me any excuses about Mother Nature, that feature could have been run well earlier in the night!
Oh well, what a complete debacle the night was. Enjoy my family’s donation to the “Worst Show in the World” It will be the last time we pack the family up for some entertainment. Maybe the “blow hards” that will respond with excuses, can take this as constructive criticism and learn how to run a program and give the fans what they came to see at a decent time. We walked out with a bunch of them who were equally as disappointed as us not getting to see THE LATE MODELS GREASTEST SHOW ON EARTH!!!!
