ok heres my suggestion. pay the darn bills owed to the people that were kind enough to bail out the place. The place is making money so where is it going? It sure isn't goin toward track upgrades. If I kicked in millions of dollars I would want it back as well. at least a payment tp show effort. just a suggestion. Its only a matter of time and the hammer will drop. The place has done a good job working the system though for these past few years but eventualy they gonna have to pay up.

Oh yea they could also make some calls or just keep losing cars, counts are down for a reason and it is not economy, yea its a factor but not the source of the problem. There have been a lot of destroyed race cars with no calls made. teams will stop bringing they're race cars to the track. And im not complaining just stating an opinion.

I think Terry as race director wasn't the brightest idea of the season. I'm sure he's trying the best he can but should've got somebody with race director experience. He did say it was just temporary until they found someone. Hopefully they are still looking.

Rumor in the street that the place is going to be sold to the highest bidder.. If you know where to find the info you'll know the truth.

So Sean Foster And Tommy Fox were at the bowl doing work. That's cool to see.

Tom Fox did a great job working with Scott Tapley (sorry if i spelled it wrong) in getting him ready to take the reigns over at the bowl. So seeing Tom back working with Sean Foster is cool.

Not sure how that will work out.

The Bowl puts itself in some odd spots. It's probably not the best idea to have a guy that can possibly be involved in a call that races against a few of the same people at a different track.

It could be 110% on the up and up but IMO you can't race one night then officiate against the same/some people you raced against the next night. It just doesn't look right and started a lot of grumbling in the pit area last time an official got involved with a Speedbowl car that raced elsewhere.

I know it looks like I'm complaining. And I know most of you will hate me for saying this. And I have accepted the 17$ weekly price tag. But I'm not to sure if I'm going to the bowl this week to see 14 or 15 NEMA cars race 27 laps for 22$ That's a lot of money out of my pocket to not see a extra long distance race with a dieing series. I remember when I first started going to the bowl they would have numbers up in the twenty's.

I don't know, I'll look into my wallet this Saturday and decide. Might be cheaper to save this week with the W&W and the 150 coming up soon.

Any thoughts?
