I'll give them a break on the season pass thing if and when they do something to make up for it. However I booked every Friday night off this summer and Wednesday night so that I could travel in from Toronto to watch the races.
May i suggest you ease up on the Legends series, they work just as hard on their cars during the week as you do?? They put on a race just like every other division at Kawartha. They are not my favorite either but still give them credit for getting in their cars and riding around only a few inches from the ground.
I'm sure Kawartha will make it right for you, you are not the sort of fan they can afford to lose.
As a better explaination of my issue with the legends...
You cannot get away from them. Other series comparable to legends such as pro challenge and cup lites, do not run the same number of times at any track. I would enjoy the legends ONCE, but you cannot avoid them. I remeber a few years back, I went to Brighton, and guess who was running, the Legends.. I avoid Peterborough because of them, but then they show up wherever I go....
Take the ACT weekend at Kawartha for example. On Saterday, the legends ran at Mosport with the OSSCAR series. THEN THE NEXT DAY with the ACT series. I had to suffer with them both times (these were the only races I got to watch this year in their entrieity, because I was not running). Twice in one weekend, on top of real traveling series!! They can't draw a crowd of their own, so they try to take attention there for another reason.
Only the legends series is this pushy, and make themselves unavoidable
Now this year. They ran earlier in the year at mosport. As always with the legends, their feature was full of yellows from stupid spins. It took forever. Thunder feature was up next. Because of their stupid little show taking so long, we couldn't get the Thunder feature in before the rain. Cost to me $150-$175... Kawartha didn't get the 50 lap thunder feature in Wednesday, and can't put it next week because the shedule is full with legends (the legends are still running at Peterborought the next night)!! As you may or may not know the 50 lap features pay about double. Cost to me $100-120. Total on the year, $250-$295. You are a bit mad over your season pass, understandable, but look at the legends cost to me....
How can they run so much? Unlike every other class from 4-funs to Lates, who actually spend the week working on our cars, Legends are go carts in boxes. You buy all your parts from a dealer, who ownes the series. Some guys even buy complete cars, that the dealer maintains for them. What you are looking at is a go cart club for adults, with a series promoter/dealer that is buying as much track time as he can get, to increase his sales of cars and parts. It takes track time away from real track series, and real traveling series, and is boring the fans. If i could just avoid them I would, they make it so I can't. So I'm just telling it as I see it.
People that run classes above you think the same of you!
