Time for making plans to ensure our season goes smoothly. We have been taking a good look at our race night program to ensure we can get in a good nights racing without keeping the young kids up too late on a school night. As I recall last summer when we were starting at 7pm we were often finishing up the last race by 9:00 or 9:15 and so we stretched to program out a bit with ribbon presentations and lots of visiting. We will have another class this year but we do not want to keep the younger drivers up any later so we will be modifying the 2009 nightly schedule slightly to ensure we have alert drivers. The objectives were. Don’t start too early- don’t run too late- provide practice time to those who want it- make the qualifiers count for something- get the youngest/inexperienced drivers the most track time-have some weeks off- have some races at different locations-have the store open for sign in-have more room for spectators -have a consistent race night and program. The track will be available for practice by appointment 6 days a week so that new drivers can get all the track time they need to feel ready to race. There will be optional practice sessions at the beginning of each race night. Those who wish to arrive at the track later, can. Ribbon presentations from the previous week will occur at the driver meeting at 7pm, with racing starting immediately after. Although we may very well be able to run the program more quickly than listed, it will give a guideline to those trying to decide just how late they need to be at the track. There will not be after race presentations so after a drivers final race he/she will be able to load up and head for home or stick around and watch the faster races and visit with friends. Suggested schedule will be as follows Race Nightly Schedule Sign in 6pm to 7pm 6:30 optional beginner practice 6:40 optional junior practice 6:50 optional senior practice 7:00 Drivers meeting and Ribbon Presentation 7:10 Beginner 10 lap 7:20 Junior 10 lap 7:30 Senior 10 lap 7:40 Beginner 20 lap 7:55 Junior 25 lap 8:10 Senior 25 lap 8:25 Expert 10 lap 8:35 Beginner 20 lap 8:50 Junior 30 lap 9:05 Senior 35 lap 9:20 Expert 50 lap

How many Karts & fans do you get out?

We have over 30 carts between 4 classes, fans i've never counted them lol but we get a few. Like Racer 43 was saying it's a great place to race very family oriented and the Chesterman's are great people to deal with.
p.s. anybody that want's to check out the place come to the #81 race trailer and i'll set you up with some free passes
Thanks, Mike March
