Just treat every racer or category equally because everyone contributes to the race just like in baseball every player contributes to the team wether your a starter or on the bench!!! my .02

i think you'll have to define better, better for racers? safer, more races, easier to git to, equlity with respect to racers and classes, i would like to think that i and my race vehical are just as important to the race management as those racers who spend 40k or more a year on their cars. do i see that happen? sometimes. we need more racing in southern california, there are enough racers and cars here to have the largist sand drag races ever, please don't misunderstand what i'm saying i know there are hundreds of sand racers in other states i've been to your races and most are very well organized and i hope you'll come to socal, i'm saying that there are a multitude here, glenn helen, borona and san jacinto races have proven that. and thats my .02(to the tenth power).

Over last 25 yrs we have so many tracks come and go alot of money /time .I would rather put $ in to a association like 50.00 or 100.00 per yr I think you will have alot members ready to sighn up now and be a part of it Pay out money for points funds in all classes .300 racers or members show up for one race .THERS POWER IN NUMBERS

I think that this forum is a very good vehicle to get these issues out all racers from peewees to top fuel should be treated the same and the association should not be for the promoter, the association should be for the racers to make sure that whenever they go to a race they are getting the same race they had the last race.A membership would give better credibilaty to all the racers especially when the association tries to get an event at another location, now you have something to offer, a great group of racers and a great show. The last two entries were great.Good points and positive ones will make the future of sand drags were I think most of us want it to go. HAMMERDOWN

Membership make scents, I would think that anyone could come up with $20.00. This way lower funded teams can be part of this too. 300 members at $20 is $6000.00 that could go back into the purse or whatever.

I understand that Dome Valley Track is the site for Plant Sand's Quad Race in November.
Just a heads up for all the Quads.

Exactly, this is one of those times for a good phrase,"be careful for what you wish for".This forum was designed to get the racers involved in the issues that pertain to racing,classes,maybe new ones, making existing ones better,not to get involved with tracks,or promoters arguing, or accusing others of slander, who did this or did that. So please do not use this forum for that. If you have a issue give them a call. I'll bet most racers just want to race!So do I!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HAMMERDOWN

After looking at the flyer, it seems to me that the race is paying pretty well in all classes. If 16 cars show up in the pro classes and you win 4 rounds, you win $1200. Sounds pretty good to me!
