Re: New rules for Maple Grove Raceway competitors
In Lex and Maple Groves defense I can see why that rule was put into affect. I mean say someone crosses over the highway to go to the bar, have a few too many drinks and hops back onto their scooter, atv, golf cart. Not really sure if people who have never been to Maple Grove know where the Bar is located but, it's right near the hill on Gate 4 and it can be a very very blind spot for some drivers. Say someone blows through the cross-over and gets nailed...#1 there is no protection for the golf cart driver and he's prob going to be toast. #2 you have the driver of the car that hit the cart who could cause damage to the property and maybe injure themselves and could sue Maple Grove cause I think the Lewis family owns all that property from the track out the the park which is a wide area. So then it puts a bad name on Maple Grove Park and Racetrack cause someone gets killed on that road riding a golf cart drunk.
You can't pick the dates you can and will allow golf carts to be ridden along the road. Maple Grove races from March/April till the end of October. You can't say on these dates you can ride your golf cart across the street cause the police are not looking but these dates you have to put them away. Trust me someone will try to bend the rules and even with the new rules into affect I think Lex and his crew and going to have to play babysitters to some people.
