I understand that and actually just spend some considerate time on the phone with member of your staff. Perhaps they ALL don't need to go but the ones in problem areas could be replaced.

[Don Nerone]

ood luck with your new track.. Be carefull .I have been there 2 times this year and the racing has been great. The stands have fallin off the last few years and thast is something that needs a lot of work.
All the track personal have treated me great and the racing has bveen way over the top from any plase that I have been. I have been in racing for many years and Don C and I have not agred on a lot of things we have alwase been friends. You cant do any better than him in this sport.
If BOBBY the BIG TOP is going to help try to keep the Big tent out of the iufield so we can see. (bobby dig lol)
agin good luck looks like all the tracks except NSS will have new people...

do you race there?

Wow! Why would keep the same staff when they are responsible for a lot of the drivers leaving? If that staff was doing such a great job the track would be strong, not losing drivers on a regular basis. Just sayin.

Do you know these people?

Bobby Diehl, Please Quit with the BIG Red lettering. In the Business World that is unprofessional ediquette. Not sure of the spelling.

Yeah, talk about hijacking someone's thread with your self-promotion....

Tires

Voicing the opinion of several, STREET STOCK class should be on radials, even if the track spec's the tire brand and sells it to make minimal percentage they are making on the Hoosiers. It is not in the budget of MOST Street Stock racers to buy tires as often as required using the Hoosiers. My personal experience right rear was junk after second race, I know the car was off and needs a lot tuning, but the season the prior the other car did as well. the radials sustained the abuse until we got it right. Several practice nights and about 8 or 9 races.
Critter has always treated me fair and so has the rest of the Staff as far as I know, I do know some of the major advocates of the race tire have raced little if any this year.

These are things I will be going over with the different classes in a meeting I want to have with them all in the near furture for plans for 2014 for all classes and the track.

Thank You Bobby>

No problem, any anytime you have a problem with me just ......

No problem, any anytime you have a problem with me just call me or post it. I get a little over the top(just sometimes). Gary and I have been talking for the last couple of years. You learn from your mistakes. I would like to thank Gary for all the help that made the SOUTHERN SLAM come together. We will have the SOUTHERN SLAM Touring Series next year 2014. Now we have Lee County Civic Center, Sebring, Eastbay and Citrus that I have spoke to and they like the way that FASTRUCK was ran and as the old saying goes "The SHOW must go on". Thanks to all of the people that had sign up. It going to be exciting. Also if anyone is going to the Disney America Muscle Car Show next weekend check out the info. $99.00 rooms @ night and pass to any Disney Park that night.

This is from Jeremy Ong:
PLEASE HELP US PROMOTE THIS TO EVERYONE. WE NEED BODIES AND ROOMS.
THIS IS A GREAT GET-A-WAY for the weekend, EVEN IF YOU DON’T GO SEE THE CARS.

We have an extremely low room rate offered for rooms at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort for the entire weekend. $99.00 per night, which includes (two) free “After 4 pm Disney Theme Park Tickets.” These same rooms are typically priced at $219 a night without the passes, so this is a great deal! Rooms can be booked by calling 407-939-4686 and using the special reservation group code G0605618A. Also, attached is theme park ticket link (http://www.mydisneymeetings.com/dcw13/)

Attached is the information regarding the RPM Muscle Car Showdown at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on Sunday night (click link: Lights Motors Action Theater Photos). This is information about the December park buyout “fashion show” event by Parker Brothers Concepts.

Monday Cars and Coffee event by duPont REGISTRY. We desperately NEED to advertise this, as we need a LOT of guests and cars to book rooms (especially for Sunday night) and participate in this event. We have some representatives from Porsche Club of America that will be coming to attend this event to scope it out. We have already reached out to our friends at the Jaguar Club.

Great news! We have decided to provide (two) complimentary after 4pm tickets especially for any guests that will be coming to attend the Cars and Coffee event during the RPM Muscle Car weekend that will only stay for one night. Please note that this only pertains to guests staying only for Sunday night. If a guest has a room reservation arriving Saturday, August 30th and checking out on Monday, September 2nd, they will only receive (two) complimentary after 4 pm tickets for the entire stay.

Thanks,
Jeremy
