How did things get so bad??

Guest · 2008-07-26T20:50:08Z

After the happenings of this past few days, the unfortunate situation with the tires, and the postings of "Mickey" things are spinning out of control. I attended Sunset every week for years and then started to attend Barrie during the "Lloyd years", not because I have anything against the Lloyd's, But Sunset just wasn't the track that it had been in the past. I started attending Sunset again mid season last year. I was happy to be back, but I was shocked at how far the track had slipped into disrepair. It truly looked like nobody cared. When I heard at the beginning of the season that Wes had taken it over again, I was so excited, "finally" I thought, "here is someone that loves Sunset, and will return it to it's former glory". But somehow things have turned sour. I truly believe that Wes wants things to work out, with the ultimate goal of turning Sunset back around to the being the best track in the area. All I can do is ask everyone that truly loves Sunset as much as I do, not to get sucked in to all of this negativity. If half of the drivers leave, and the current management are forced to close the doors, how is that going to benefit racing in the area? Over the last few decades, we have lost so many racetracks in the area, and all that remains of them is the memories of the way things used to be. After seeing Sunset again mid season last year, and the condition that it was in, one has to wonder how close we have come to Sunset, meeting the same fate as many of the areas other "Ghost Tracks" I think that Wes would be one of the first to say that he would do things a little differently if he could start the '08 season all over again, and all I can do is ask Steve and Wes to please, please, resolve this nasty situation, for the sake of the track that you both love so much, and for the sake of racing in Simcoe County. As for everyone else, Please, let's give all of this public negativity a rest, let's give Wes a year, and see where the track is then. I really don't want to see Sunset close it's doors, and don't try to tell me that it couldn't happen.

I cant think of many track owners that havent deceived the drivers and sometimes the fans at some point.
If Wes did , just add him to the list. Lol.
