When was the last time......

Silver Dollar in reynolds GA is the friendliest on the div 2 schedule. They are always at the gate to get you parked until late in the evening and usually have a goodie bag for each rig comong in to the race. Orlando Speed World is usually very user friendly and supports the Southern Stock/ Super Stock Assn. I wish we still had the points race there before the Gators. Maybe now that the alchohol cars are not going to be at all of the points races they might have a points race there again.

Firebird Raceway in Boise ... been there a few times , and always get a personal Thank You from a member of the New family .. a true class act. These people know how to operate a track and run a race.

Beaver Bob @ Beaver Springs - especially if you drive a Ford!.....or know Professor Nees.

I only know of 2- Reynolds, and NoProblem, every time I've been to either one.
I left NP, at the end of my first trip there, and no less than 5 different people said thanks for being there. Ed and Dot always greet you with a smile, and goodies and tell you goodbye.

Byron,Cordova and Earlville. But the manager owner at Cedar Falls shook everybodys hand in staging before first round both days. First time for that. I live 15 minutes from Route 66 and you feel like WTF are you doing here!

hmmmmmm seems to me it's tracks that are in the middle of the country or on the eastern side of the country........

Alan Roehrich · 11-09-2011, 09:43 PM

David Glidewell, Jackson Dragway, Jackson TN, Sunday for the combo race. As well as the announcer.

Not so fast,,,Rick. I make it a point to always thank the "fans in the stands" whenever I'm on the mic at Bremerton Raceway. With all the water we're surrounded by, many people spend their time and money on boats, so when I see an unusually larger crowd than normal, I'll also throw in a little shot at the boaters for coming out to see us too.
If a name comes up on my screen that I'm not familiar with or has traveled a long way to get here, I try to make note of that to everyone also.
Throughout the season we'll have different groups or associations come in to race and put on a show, and we'll always give them a shout out.
Of course, if I'm going rounds, I can't be responsible for what comes out of the other announcer's mouth,, but once I get my ***** handed to me, I go up to the "penalty box" and fill out the day, educating the fans and spectators.

Boise treats us very well, the only reason I drive all the way to the middle of nowhere, Mission is great, Woodburn makes me feel like John Force racing, and Bremerton Raceway makes me feel like my parents did when I came home from college for Xmas.
