Important announcement

[Bigbuck]

Ok, so what was the important announcement at OSW last night??

[billy badd]

Yeah, and where are the results? billy

It is not on their website unless it was some minor tweeks to their schedule due to rainouts. I was wondering as well.

I have been checking but have not found them yet also. Once I do, I have to post them also. I keep checking speednet since usually you can find them there but I do know that Rich Clouser won the Super Stock race and finished 3rd in the Limited Late Model race but that is it.

[billy badd]

And they wonder why things aren't going well. billy

It looks like the internet needs to be added to the list of things that hurt local racing. In the old days, people went to the racetrack so they could see the racing, now many just expect to be told what happened on the internet.

Actually if I read a few weeks about a decent turn out and show maybe I'd go. EZ, this is EXACTLY the kind of thinking that has prevailed in FASCAR for the last few years. Let me ask, is it working?
They go on here all week talking about big anouncements, the schedule and then nothing about it for days. Sorry EZ, but I for one take it as not caring about their customers/potential customers. I would think it would be better to project what a great time was had, a great program instead of saying "TO HELL WITH THEM, THEY DIDNT COME OUT WE WONT TELL THEM WHAT HAPPENED" And I've been accused by the professor of being brainwashed, the people at FASCAR are the ones being brainwashed, Why, the first lesson a half intelligent business man that is in the customer service learns is 'make sure you show your customers you care about them". You've been good to me lately ez, and I respect that you are intitled to your opinion, but with that opinion its no wonder the problems FASCAR is having trying to draw a crowd, both in thye seats AND in the pits. Let me ask you something else, how many fans are there that might like to come out but cant, so the attitude is "to hell with them, they didn't come out they don't deserve to know"? There's a couple racers that have asked me to come out and meet them, they show they care, I probably will just for that reason. I've already told them I can't help or sponsor them because if FASCAR knew they would be teched out of the place. So you see EZ, Fascar has projected to me they just don't care. Let me ask, does it hurt me or them the most?? I have other interests, I don't need them but they better learn soon that they need all of us! I asked a simple question on here, "What is the age for a senior citizen? and was told basically to look on the NSS web page", yes he told me but had to show his sarcastic mouth AGAIN! So that seems to be the attitude the last few yrs, look in the stands EZ, how do they look? Sorry if I seem harsh but remember, I'm one of the few on here that says whats on my mind, I have nothing to lose, I do not need FASCAR, I've been tramped on by FASCAR, long before I bashed them, but just remember, there are MANY who feel exactly the same way I do.

The so-called big announcement involves the drivers of couple of classes and really does not concerns fans, yet. It is a great thing for our local racing and I would like to tell you about it, but it's not my place. I am sure when the time comes, they will inform the public.

As far as the results of this weekends races, I agree, they should get them out sooner. I would be willing to bet, there is a reason, and it's not because they don't care about their customers.

It was announced at the drivers meeting at NSS last night. The SPEED channel show 'Pinks' will be shooting a pilot for circle track racing in August at NSS. They want e-mods and super stocks to participate. If the pilot is a sucess, then they will shoot more and actually have a payout for the winners...first one is no payout.
Maybe this is the announcement... Don't remember it being a secret though. It ain't now for sure.(unless I get windexed again).

Well EZ, I hope you're right. Time will tell. But to me, just me, another sign the fan doesnt count. Why would the fan beinterested in a show about tgheir home track?

Results are posted on the OSW website. In hindsight, the interest in the results shows you still have an interest.

Mr. EZ, my wife is handicapped, so I have a real problem going to the races, and when I do go I don't want to see sub par races. If I weren't interested I would not be on this site (and others) so often. Personally, I can't wait for OSW to get back to full fields. Have a blessed day. billy

They should be using Speedworld. At Speedworld there is more contact with the cars, and not the loooong strigataways (can we say snooze!).

Mr. BADD, If you can get some help with your handicapped wife, you should go to the races. You deserve it, and I think you will be well entertained. Keep an eye out for the special pricing nights.
