We almost have the dates locked down. If things go right there will be 6 events. A couple of them might be Sunday events.. I am trying to get a car show out at IDrags aswell. A car show on Sat. and a race(street legal) on Sunday. We need more to do around here. If I could get the Idrags guys to build a HUGE pad. We could have autocross/drift and drag races EVERY WEEKEND...... Derrik, what do you think?

Is the schedule i received in the e-mail from IDR the final schedule? There's only 4 events listed and there all spaced so far apart, like there 2 months between a few of the events. Nothing from June 18th till August 7th, then nothing from August 7th to October 8th. So basically 6-8 weeks between each event.
Also looking @ IDR's regular schedule they are really lacking races period this year. Only 2 races in June, 2 in July, 1 in August, 1 in September, 1 in October. Is there any reason that we dont know about as to why we cant be racing every weekend, or have some friday night events as well? Seems as if the Midwest tracks are on the downfall. Very few events this year @ IDR, BIR is up for sale, and Thunder Valley is up for sale as well as the owner no longer wants to run it. 3 most local tracks are falling apart.
-
The schedule was just posted on the idrags site as well. Just 4 days is all.
We need wed. night street legals every week like the track near Milwaukee. -
Perhaps SLS needs to sponsor friday nights? Or tintmasters get back into it... I liked friday nights when i could go and i think having more street legals at the track keeps it off the streets in town.
We need more races! Even if not full days then just nights...

From what i took from speaking w/ some of the track guys in the spring of 04, the owners of the track weren't even interested in having more events. They only wanted to pay the employees X amount of dollars and were even looking @ just running like 2 sundays a month and calling it good. Idk whats going on w/ all these tracks around our area but it doesn't seem as if anything is progressing like it should be.
The Mayhem was attempted last year then rescheduled by the track and that itself fell threw as well. Idk what needs to be done to change the owners minds to host more events. It's all in their hands of wether or not they want to host more events or not, from my take they just dont really care. The other part that sux of trying to day night races their is the county code and having to be shut down an hour before sundown, that doesn't leave much time, especially if there is a larger turnout.
-
I've been going down there for 6 years now. Make it there usually once a month. No complaints, good turnout, good amount of runs.

Maybe what needs to be done is for IDR to sell season race passes for X amount of dollars w/ the understanding that Y amount of races will be held. I'd buy a season pass, as would many others I assume. Perhaps we need to get vocal on their boards and let them know that they are passing up a money making opportunity by not having more test-and-tune type days, and most street legal days (and nights), more bracket weekends, etc, etc, etc..... It kinda bugs me that just as the "scene" in town starts picking up the track starts running less and less frequently. Like I said, lets get vocal on their boards, let them know what kind of interest is out there.
