i37DirtTrackMama Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 This opinion pole is addressed to the I-37 Raceway racers; especially racers in the point race. Having had to cancel the race on September 18th and hearing the forecast for the week of September 19 th we are considering adding a make-up race for October 9th. We need to know what our racers think of this idea. We know that you racers plan your vacations, weddings, hunting and fishing trips around your weeks off and we appreciate that. What we want to know is if any of you racers, that are in the serious points races, would not be able to race on October 9th if we were to decide to have a make-up race on the 9th. We want an opinion from all of the racers, but especially from racers in the points race, to let us know what you think or if you have definite plans and this would affect your plans or the points race for the year. We will want to make a decision by the next race (hopefully the 25th) so we can announce it so the fans are aware of this makeup date as well. If you know of someone that does not participate in the “Lone Star Speedzone Experience” please have them give Jim a call to discuss their feelings. We want to make this fair to all of you that have been loyal to I-37 all year plus we are not quite ready to end the season either!!! It has been a great year of racing and friendship and March is a long way off at this point!!!! If you would like to discuss any of this with Jim, please call him at 210-367-6090. The final decision will be made by Jim and Eric depending on feedback and fair circumstances. Thank you for your 2010 loyalty. Quote
Jones41 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Great idea! I'm ready to do a little more racing, but I have defensive driving on the 9th haha, but should be able to make the race. Let's go racing! Quote

SassyCassie14 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 I would like a make-up race but NOT that oct 9th. We have already scheduled a vacation that weekend. So the #14 llm wont be there either. Can you choose a diff date please! Quote
DirtRacer9s Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 I'm with Cassie. Or I will have to get my brother to change his wedding date. Quote
6packracing Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 how about the next race we do double main event and no heat races and do a top 10 invert in each class the 1st race regular points and the 2ed double points Quote
6packracing Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 the #72 SS is down for what ever Quote
Taz Racing Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 I agree with six pack, do a double points night this week and if you want do the following week also. If we were going to do make up races we had plenty of open dates prior to the end of the season. Let's stick with the scheduled dates. The IMCA classes for points ends at the end of September anyways so end our season as scheduled and if everyone wants to race on OCT 9th it would be a non points night and to have some fun. If you do a rainout date and run for points after the posted ending date there will be drivers affected. I for one will be out of town that weekend. Quote
Jamie Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 I would like to just stick to the way the schedule stands now; no adding of dates. What you do on the scheduled dates is whatever for me. JMHO Quote
dirttrackdog Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 how about the next race we do double main event and no heat races and do a top 10 invert in each class the 1st race regular points and the 2ed double points if you decide to do a double race on this night does this mean there will be a double payout or what race will we get the payout for. it sounds like a good idea to have the 2 races on this night. you can count on us being thier no matter what you decide on.

Jones41 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Posted September 19, 2010 Great idea! I'm ready to do a little more racing, but I have defensive driving on the 9th haha, but should be able to make the race. Let's go racing! Cancel that, I think corpus christi speedway is having a big race on that night...but not sure if its the same night. Quote
6packracing Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 i dont think they can give double the money if you look at it the way i said early you would actually get triple the points single in 1st main and double in the 2 race besides you dont get paid for a heat race anyways all this is 4 is to make the championship even in points i have not talked to jim about this or do i have a say so it just my opinion on this topic Quote
Taz Racing Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 I was thinking more in the line of our normal show with 1 feature per class with the points being doubled. If we ran two features in the pures, streets and the limited late models we would be running the show way to late and the spectators wouldn't stay. There's no way that we would get paid twice in one nite. I don't think IMCA would allow double points or a double feature without getting prior approval. (I believe the last statement is correct) Quote
Woodwayracing18 Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 Do a Hole weekend, Sat & Sun to make up races. But we will be there whatever you decide. Quote
flyingaces Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 The 9th would be bad for me too, I am performing a wedding that day. Quote
PAPA Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 The 9th would be bad for me too, I am performing a wedding that day. Say what? Quote
