General Statement

[sprinter117]

We want everyone to know that we are not here to bash anyone or any track. However last night We felt we had no choice other than to post the email regaurding why the race was changed. As Peanut Sprint said in the other post we do value your opinions and ask for them alot regaurding lots of things with the tour. In most cases we would have asked you guy's as racers what you wanted to do before switching a race date ........... In this situation we felt we were left with no options on what to do. There are alot of things that go on behind the sences on a daily basis that many of you do not know about so if we make what you might think of as a rash decsion without asking for your opinion please try to understand the Tour will try to do it's best to do what we feel is right for everyone. All of the decsions are made as a group not by any one individual to try and get as many different perspectives about every decsion as possable. We know McCullogh's is very excited about having a race date we are looking forward to racing there as well. With two new tracks on the tour this season we are looking forward to a fun and exciting season!
In closing we would like to ask that No ONE bash Allen and Janet or Wiley's rc speedway. We wish them the best and hope they contiune to have a great season next year.

Very well put no one knows what it takes to run a track its a lot of work I was involved with our local track 10 years ago The Cressona Mall Speedway we raced 2 nights a week it takes a good day and a half to get the track preped for good racing conditions and that does not include doing any of the other chores that go with running the races.

I at least hope Wiley's will have 1 or 2 big races for Sprints/EDMs/Late Models this year. It is too nice a track to not run on.....

I went their with the Hands once or twice to race back in the day. Rob Cutman went to. I remember running side by side with him for about 15 to 20 laps banging off each other the whole time and we never wrecked and always stayed side by side. We couldn't stop laughing!!!!!!!!!! Great time.:D

[brockh]

thats saying something...hanging with rob for 15-20 laps is no small feat...that guy is FAST!

Brian's no slouch himself, we just neet to get him out on the dirt oval more often!

[siggy99x]

Yes our track was great for side by side racing the inside of the track had slight banking as you moved t othe outside the banking increased. We had some real good clay and we loaded it with water the night before and the day of the races we pumped the water right out of the Sch. river. It was a great place a lot of fun

[sheriffM1]

Remember running there..we used to race at kranzels sun afternoon then haul A** up there to run sun night.Dont know how many of those Thunder Hawk Stock motors r resting on bottom of that river-lol.Know there was alot tossed that way after kranzels big races.

[Rcer19]

i use to love those parades down to Cressona after Kranzels. we made a bunch of them, And Sheriff your are right i know i have at least 4 motors in the river, lolI loved running at that place

[sheriffM1]

[WYD]

thats saying something...hanging with rob for 15-20 laps is no small feat...that guy is FAST!Thats when I was pretty good. Plus I think we laughed so hard it kept Rob from pulling away from me.:D

[WYD]

Brian's no slouch himself, we just neet to get him out on the dirt oval more often!Every now and then I can turn up the wick some but it is few and far between now.:D I do need to try to run a little more oval like back in the day. I just have too much going on and now it might be worse since I bought a new house that I need to work on as soon as we finish settlement.
