Dallas or Houston

[Joseph Teuton]

Who wants to stay at Dallas or go to the mud bath for next weekends National? Let's hear what you have to say!

I say stay right where we are so it doesn't turn into a mud race rather than a drag race!

All sold to RVs. They would not lose that revenue. Don't think that's an option.

I was at the race that never happened for 4 days. 4 lost days of work, 4 wasted days, lots of money, stuck in the mud had to be pulled out. Never again.

I have friends and family that are going to houston. Hotel rooms booked and they are going to watch me and the pros. They arnt gonna come to Dallas. I wouldn't be happy if they wanted to race it in Dallas. Why am I gonna pay $310 to race in front of nobody? My sponsor wouldn't like that very much and I assume the contingency Sponsors wouldn't either. How about he pour some blacktop road down the back so we don't have to be in the mud? doesn't he own a paving company? The weather looks good from here on out. How long have we been paying entry fees and he hasn't done anything for our pits? I'll answer that, over 20 years. It's a dirt road. People who are coming to watch us have money invested in this already. Not everyone has a motorhome. They rented hotels already. People bought tickets already expecting their friends to be there. And now you want me to pay $310 and I can't even watch the pros?

What he said ^^^. I don't run a lot of these, i'm just a backyard nhra racer, but i'm willing to pay that entry fee to race and watch the travelling circus once a year. Hrp's pit area is a joke for the sportsman guys, but it just shows who they are worried about when they dont do anything about it. They have added some drainage to the spectator parking lot though...gee thanks..

Answer to your question!

[Jeff Teuton]

This motorhome is shaking all over the place. Really bad front coming through. I am not going to Houston if the race is done there. I am going home. I think my son Joey going to Houston. We are having water wings put on the camper. It is really shaking this 45000 lb monster around right now.

[Adub464Q]

I'm not going either Mr. Jeff. I am not interested in sitting in the mud again and having to complete it on Monday or something else. The sensible thing to do would be to move it to Dallas, but since that is sensible, that is not an option as we know it!

Has anyone been asked for input? Isn't this what our sportsman advisory council is for?

[Joseph Teuton]

Houston will be a mud mess! I am going because I managed to get a few rounds in Gainesville and hope to continue the luck. The good thing is I have a HOTEL room with my name on it. Yea some of us don't have motorhomes. But just in case I have a hotel room in Ennis as well! Maybe I should invest in a motorhome! I can tell you we had standing water today in Ennis and we are parked on gravel couldn't imagine parking on grass!
