Now is the time for ALL of the drivers to get together about this matter. This track administration needs to change their ways. It is really difficult to figure exactly what they are trying to prove. The drivers all need to stick together and get change done.
What happened last race was nothing short of criminal - a fine is nothing - Barton should be banned from the track for life. He has driven like this since he started racing. He is a danger to anyone he is in the race with.
Scott, good luck in whatever you are trying to do. Hope that it makes a difference and the drivers will all stick together!

Sassy, You must not have had enough money to grease the right palm. There is no justice at the Bullring. I hope that whatever the SLM's are going to do gets someones attention.

Momma G,
There's a lot wrong with this picture. A famous person (who's name I won't mention, because I don't know which one to use) has said many times something like - If you don't like it, you can leave. And many racers are doing just that.

Verne I hear ya Verne - guess it might be time to bring out the big information I've been holding on to. We have been trying to be adults about everything, but I guess thats not working huh? lol

Hey Momma G.,
My personal opinion is that it would be a good thing for Chris Blair to have that information. I have emailed him several times. His responses and some of the things he has done, since he took over, tell me that he is a reasonable guy, who has tried to improve the races. I am not sure he knows how negative the attitude of that certain person is, and how it affects the racers. If he knew just how mean, disrespectful, egotistical, hateful, and childish that certain person is, maybe he would do something about it. Maybe for some reason he can't though. I don't know. As I see it, the job that certain person has requires a people-person. He is the direct connection between the operation of the track and the racers. To be effective, the person, who has that job, should have a good balance between ego and empathy. That certain person has only a big ego, and apparently no empathy for anyone, except the ones he likes.

Politics-ugh. Who ISN'T aware of the double standards, ignorance and greed that happens at certain tracks? it's quite a shame as it is a really nice facility, but it's running drivers out of there quickly. When drivers, crews and families have to worry about safety and politics, it really takes the fun out the pastime.

AMEN Verne - you have summed it all up in a nut shell!

Verne ya Verne, I have heard great things about Chris Blair, and I don't think he knows some of the stuff that has been going on. Rumors sure float around, but most are not right lol

Meeting for all Super late drivers at Gafforinni's house tonight. 8pm
Connors will be there to tell everyone "Im sorry".
Also Scotty will be trying to unionize everyone to change the tire rule for the open comp. "back to the 2040s" We all know the 3035 tires will allow someone to break the track record"
I think it is great that everyone is pulling together to show the track that we are tired of their business practices. LVMS will do anything to make a quick buck. Now they are promoting this conflict like it is a WWE event! Do they not see it was nothing short of gang violence? Look at their web page LVMS.com
These little rich kids break the rules and daddy keeps writing checks. We continue to teach them, it is ok to do what you want as long as you say I’m sorry. When is someone doing to hold them accountable? "What happen to suspensions? "Connors, If you want to man up, confront Taylor one on one and park your car for a year! You do not deserve to be Champion!
Coronado High was planning on racing their new TCR car this weekend. “Its parked” We will not support LVMS business practices and I do not want my students around this drama!
LVMS has become an unsafe place to race and bring your families!
