South Texas Speedway Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Everyone, A race track only can exist if it has races with race cars and fans. This year we have been unable to race with any consistency. The rain we got this week was enough that we had at least 6 inches of water in many areas. That has been reduced to about 1.5 to 2 inches. The water in the spectator parking area and the west side of the pits remains. Currently we are continuing to pump water and move it to where it is out of our way. We have the maintainer and other equipment doing all we can to get the races in. This track will NOT stay open if we don't race with each of you here supporting it. After saying all this we must cancel the race on Friday. We need more time for the sun and ground to soak up more water. We plan to run Saturday schedule as planned. All classes are welcome (sport compacts, LLM and Late models are welcome). We will have a fireworks show. (Bigger then last year) You will be invited onto the track for the special event. I apologize to each of you for this change. We hope you stay with us and continue to support STS. Has anyone seen the TV commercial yet?

thumper Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Under the circumstances I don't think anybody will complain about a long nite if everyone gets to race.If necessary the order of classes can be arranged so that the most popular classes can run earlier and the support classes can run later.This allows the early bird fans to watch a full nite and go home early while the die hard fans will have a full plate and everyone has a race nite. I have been involved in many big shows and it is usually around 2am when finished.This might be a way to have an increased attendance with the same resources.Lets make this a blow out show.JMO. Happy 4th everyone.See you at the track! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arob Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Ken I think it is time to get a priest and exorcise that demon that resides at STS! ( Heck , Nick can do that!). A lot of tracks are getting hit hard but none harder than STS it seems. You made the right decision going just Saturday night. You went through a mud pit track once before no need to repeat.As for the time. If there are 8 cars or less in a class there run feature only.8-11 cars 1 heat and a feature.12-20 cars 2 heats and a feature.STXSSS runs their program as they want.THat way even with everything everyone will be out by 12 at the latest.Can't wait til Saturday night! Been too long since I have been to my home track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
