HORSEPOWER Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I was just wondering why a lot of the local racers, mainly talking about the racers who travel out of the area to race, don't ever have their PR person or even themselves post on here of any plans or whatever. Some of the people who post on here are the ones who actually let us know of such things that they find on other websites. If they did it themselves, it wouldn't cost any money. I know in the past they have posted a bit, on Casey Smith, Brandon Bendele, Robert Richardson to name a few. They have to remember where they come from and should notify their fans, supporters, the local public, or whoever, I think the local scene should also know. Maybe some might want to make the trip to see them race or just wish them well in their big racing event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAPA Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I agree HP. I dont think they realize how important it is to the fans. This sport has two ends...One end is the race team...The other end is the fans. Inbetween is the sponsers(money), tracks(money),etc.(money). We need them and they need us. To get more of us on their side we need to know more from their side. It doesnt take long to post a little something on here. Look at what Im doing right now. Just a few words, a picture or two, where ya going, when ya going, tell us about your crew guys, your sponsers, ANYTHING!!!!! .............please.

SeanAugustus Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 LOL Sounds Like u need to be a driver in order to inform fans and local racing scene of your racing plans for the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

direct-flo Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 yep...this is a neat site to inform other drivers, crew, and people close to a race team about ones plans etc. The "stop everything and read this press release" seems to me -reaches the regulars on this forum. I think the mainstream media is a great place to get the word out.(you may have to work at it--but it can be done) Then follow it up by going out and meeting the race fans and sponsors at the race track. If you stayed awhile after the races where over and greeted the fans etc that come to the pits-it would do alot for our sport. (only my opinion) certain forums are not quite ready for mainstream fans and race sponsors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLegend96 Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Through my connections I pulled some VIP seats in the deli for tonights race to the milk. No charge just show up and tell them you know me. It is limited to 2 fans per table with 4 tables total. First come first serve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLegend96 Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Due to the high demand for seating at tonights event. TXSZ members will have a secret entrance that they can use for the milk race. Just push the door bell and Tom will let you in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
