  1. OMG, show me a racing who is 100% legal 100% of the time and you will never find him at the pay window.
  2. Illegal? Pushing the envelope? Whatever you want to call it, you still feel good because you know everyone else is doing the same thing. If not, they are not up front. It is part of the sport. It is nice to say things like that to you kids, but it is not reality
  3. lets hope this does not take cheating entirely out of the sport. Cheating goes back many years. If you aint cheating, you aint winning
  4. Who is the civil engineering firm on this? San Antonio and Kyle had a couple of cool tracks to race on, but you can tell, there was no engineer involved in building those. Take Houston Motorsports Park for example, that track was well engineered. Hope they hired a good one
  5. ok man, order a few extra bodies and I will come watch you boys tear em up. I love to hear the metal crunching
  6. Yea, I really wish they would make the turns a little more sweeping which would make the straights a little shorter. It would also make for quality starts/restarts and a two grove track. No complaints, but if this is their first oval track, they have been receptive of opinions. That is cool. That paper clip may be challenging
  7. It looks like going to the city/county paid off. The 3/8 mile can tons of potential. Time to rock and roll
  8. Thanks for your efforts. I am sure the changes are increasing it to 3/8 mile so there can be decent racing in the Pro Trucks, Modifieds and Late Models. Thanks to Cibolo, I knew they would not be difficult to deal with and with this type of investment, there needs to be upside, like touring series etc.
  9. a 3/8 mile is a perfect short track. Anything smaller and there is no much upside potential. 1/4 milers tear up bodies and the cars look like junk in no time. Nooone fixes them because they will get torn up the next race.
  10. I can tell you this, I am extremely happy someone is stepping up to the plate and looking at doing this. Having an opinion that there is not much upside to 1/4 mile track, is the way I feel. Building a subdivision in an upscale neighbor hood and letting trailer houses move would be a economic disaster. That attitude reminds me of the current senate. Regardless of what I think is right or the facts are, it will be challenged by the liberals. I dont need to put my money anywhere. Now I have read where there may be issues that require it being built over existing impervious surface. I totally understand that, however going to the city/county agency that has put on that restriction would be well worth the time and effort for the upside potential of a 3/8 mile facility.
  11. Just not much upside to a 1/4 mile track. Wont get many, if any late models built for a 1/4 miler and doubt any touring series would come. The corp sponsors want the late model clean looking nascar type cars. These other ones are ok for support, but not your top class. But, if you dont need sponsors and make it off of the the back gate, running the junkers will work
  12. 1/4 mile will tear up more equipment than there is money to fix. It is cool, fans love hearing the metal crunch. Just an economic disaster for the racers
  13. please add a little to it and make it at least a 3/8 mile.
