Just wondering how much favoritism, bad calls or no calls, and political bs are going to play in the races tonight, (even though they claim this does not go on).  And why are they letting other cars come in to tonights races - it is the last points night for the Sunset cars it does not say invitational on the schedule, that is in October.  That in itself is a lot of bs.  I guess the almighty dollar overrides common sense at the tracks and loyalty to the regular drivers goes out the window.

well it happens all the time. We had a few drivers show up at barrie for the finale last week. I know it sucks but that's what happens when you run a longer schedule then another track. People are always looking to race as long as they can! I believe some of the guys who show up from other tracks may have to pay registration to race. I know that's what they do at Barrie. But the guys from other tracks should not get in the way of the points race!

 Let me help you out a bit first . Rather then make a separate post with the correct date  just click on modify and then change the date , then delete the second post .

 There is some politics at all tracks but Sunset is better then most for that . Why are they letting other cars come race to night ?  Because Sunset is a capitalist venture . more cars more people more money Sunset is not government subsidized i am sure Glen bought it with the idea to make money . I would also hazard a guess that Glen figure's if he can get some visiting cars to come out to night  the more likely they are to come out to FrostyFest and maybe they will like running at a superiorly configured race track then Barrie . Who knows but perhaps a few guys from Barrie if they run a couple of times at Sunset will consider switching tracks for next year. As for the points both late model and thunder car points champions are pretty much a a done deal . In the mini stock class outside of the Burrows boys running hot cams none of the Barrie cars are going to be able to run with the top Sunset cars . Again i am not speaking for Glen but i guess he has enough faith in visiting drivers that they will not act like idiots and you can get wrecked by a the car that is 21st in points just as easy as a visiting car , they call that a racin deal . Save that loyalty thing for your girlfriend and bring a few of those almighty dollars with you and see some good racing to night at Sunset .

I very much doubt they will make you pay a registration fee for one night

Thanks for the modify lesson - new at this!!  The championships may be solidified but the positions behind it are the ones that I am refering to.  There are enough weapons and politics at Sunset on a regular night - never mind adding drivers from other tracks.  I don't know if I would call the track superiorly configured, ashpalt is like running on marbles and be prepared to chew up your tires.  Lets just hope everyone has a great time - runs clean - and few cautions, as it is going to be along night with two thunder car features, two four fun featurs and probably a 50 lap LLM that will be cut down to 40 like the Thunder car feature was last week.  I spend my almighty dollar there every week, and I don't have a girlfriend because I am a girl!

Have fun tonight everyone - put on a good show - try not to let your tempers fly as there are young children watching and we all should set a good example for our future racers!!

i think more people would want to run Sunset if they repaved the track and made it smoother so it didn't chew up tires so quickly. We ran Barrie on one set of tires all year long.
