2007 Interstate Dragways Street Legals
-
Just mount it and don't worry about it. If it doesn't start go pull the switch back out.
The switch has to be permanently mounted.

wow, no street legals is gonna suck. No street legals=no Dragstrip for me. pretty sad when you can drive to marion and back plus race for only $5 more. This place is so overpriced i would rather go to Brainerd or Marion. Only reason i went in the first place was cause the Tintmasters events brought the price down to a reasonable level. They need to wake up and lower the prices if they want it to stay open.

well anyone that has ever taken an economics course will understand that lower prices=higher volume and more total revenue. could you imagine the amount of cars they would have there if they were to do a $20 friday night test and tune only? Thats what we did in TX and the lanes were ALWAYS full. The problem is they dont do any night stuff like that. 5pm-1am and sometimes until 2-3am, if there was a good turnout and alot of grudge races going on. As soon as the friday night events started the owner started making a profit, and a big one at that. 5 bucks to watch and 20 to race, they have to do it and see if it works or close the place. the regulars that go every week for $40-60 arent gonna support it forever and most guys i know, my friends for example, if we are each going to spend $60 for test and tune we will spend $100 and go to brainerd for the weekend.
On a side note, if its because of the size of the track and such, Marion is the same size and same population base, look at the prices there once, taken from the Marion site:Pit Side: **Adults $5.00 on Saturday **~ $8.00 on Sunday & Monday; Kids 8 - 12 $3.00; Kids 7 & Under Free

How did I know that you would come back and try to insult me by saying "well anyone that has ever taken an economics course blahblahblah"
Tell me this then Mr. "I'm Smarter than you" Why is it that when tintmasters did the street legal drags and it was 35 bucks to run, why were there the same oh 40-50 people each time? Why is it that there were more regulars who paid more to race with the high prices, than people when the price is much lower? Tintmasters tried to do something good, but nobody took advantage of it, and now you people stand up and support it. Alot of good it does now. You all cant say you didnt see this coming, with them considering not sponsoring it again. the numbers were way down. and the 2 day weekend ended up being quite disastrous. You people take things for granted then complain when they leave. Typical.Grr wrote:

It's no ones fault it rained, but some people are responsible for being total asshats and whipping shitties in the grass, I know if it were my track I wouldn't like that too much.

But again, thats not any of the Tintmasters people, just a few people who like to ruin things for others is all.
and the rain out really sucked. but like you said, its nobody's fault. it just happens sometimes.
