    I like the name. They had to erase the memory of recent years and start over fresh.

    Imagine the commercials you could create "Ask any racer, the action begins at Full Throttle!"

    "This Saturday night, the racing is at Full Throttle!"

    Of course that also assumes that anyone under the age of 30 knows what the word "throttle" is! Kidding here, I do like the name.

          Coca Cola.....

          Well, if that's the case then Coke might be getting a call from the good folks at a little place in Sturgis....

          Doubt they (Coke...or any one else for that matter) can lay any kind of claim to words like Full Throttle...

            Thats like trying to find a mute button for a four year old girl.


            As a historic speedway with a bad reputation of having a lousy owner for several years I would name it something like John is no longer here speedway. Full Throttle isn't too bad, at least they didn't name it something dumb like Bubba.

                  With all due respect OJ (and I have a lot based on your child safety posts alone), I think this is what tccaz was talking about:

                    I'll type slowly for the girl with the learning disorder....

                    ....to aid you in your comprehension skills.

                    Carol's FIRST post....(this would be the one I was making reference to, Carol)

                    "im not crazy about the name either. i would have probably called it Bradenton Speedway... but as i said. they paid and they can call it what they want. anyway... this is all mute. ;-)
                    Carol"


                    Now I'll highlight the word I targeted with my first witty reply.

                    "im not crazy about the name either. i would have probably called it Bradenton Speedway... but as i said. they paid and they can call it what they want. anyway... this is all mute. ;-)
                    Carol"


                    My reply:

                    "It's all moot.

                    Mute is the button on your remote."


                    I think I did screw up on who I thought was the deaf and dumb person (that would be the mute person, Carol) though.

                    Here's yer sign.....lol
                    (Don't worry.....I don't need an apology)


                    And Scott, with all due respect (of which you have mine because you have never given me reason not to and you make good posts with valid points), my joke to tccaz was referencing his quip about Coke having issues with the track's new name. My post was if that were the case then the Full Throttle Saloon in Sturgis should be taking issue with Coke as they were definitely in business before Coke marketed their energy drink.

                    Get it now?

                      Hey OJ! Thanks for the kind words. I get it now. I misunderstood, I took tccaz saying "they (coke) might have a say in that" as him inferring that maybe Desoto's new brass had a sponsorship deal with "Full Throttle" (the only reason that it would be a good name, in my book). I should have known that you knew that Full Throttle was a Coke product. DUH! I must have inhaled too much CO during all those yellows and red flags during the FUPS Sportsman feature Saturday night!
