Racerwoman as I said in last weeks Barrie thread , most weeks you will find good racing at Barrie but like any track occasionally things go to hell in a hand basket . Let me assure you that the reason things were smooth at Barrie last night had nothing to do with Walters absence but may have been more of a return to normal .
You said ....."So lets go racing and bring back the fun and support of each of our drivers. " and why thats all fine and good , what really puts fans in the stands is rivalries wether its Hanley and Beiderman or Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt . Most people want someone to cheer and someone to boo other wise they would be able to draw 5000 people to a polite game of badminton on a Saturday night locally or 100.000 plus on a Sunday afternoon nationally.
Racerwoman , Barrie's loss is Sunsets gain,don't kid yourself Walters brings in the fans,and as Pinecrest says he creates rivalries, don't listen to losers. Walters is one one the few who said they were done at Barrie and mean't it.

[/quote]I was at Sunset last night and could not beleive the car count in each and every class,especially the late models.Some very good drivers like vic parsons,chris morrow.rob poole,ron quenelle and even the newly arrived tom walters.Ive been to barrie,kawartha and mosport this year but i thought last nights racing at sunset was the most entertaining
I can tell you from what ive heard from the few fans that still go to Barrie on Sat. nights that since Walters left a short few weeks ago that attendace is way down. I guess the people that love to hate him have decided to follow him to Sunset so they can continue hating him but also watch one of the best shows around.
I have been at Barrie since 1985 but this weekend a bunch of us are going down to Sunset to see what its all about and 3 of us will be chearing and 2 will be boo-ing Walters lol.
