Number of cars?
By:racinjason363d
Just wondering if the car count was down everywhere and what are we going to do to stop it? The purses are being cut at alot of tracks and it making it hard to go.  Jason  "Racin Jason"

Hey Jason, Yeah I know, we race 20 races semi-pro with a lot of sponsors and even our operation had to just race in FL the 2nd half of the season....and yes car counts are down in TN, VA, FL.


The only really cool thing is the PINKS All Out events attract over 450 racers and 30,000 fans. We did both the Gainesville, FL and the Atlanta, GA events and when you looked at the over 400 motorhomes pulling trailers Fri morning you would think gas was $1/gallon and the economy was great.


Just goes to show you that if a racer wants to race, they will find a way. Things should loosen up after the election.....hang in there and keep on racing at your local tracks to support the sport!
