Forrest Lucas of Lucas Oil "fame" could have done this already. He didn't listen and now he's banging his head over that outdoor bar that has racing as a sideshow in wheatland!

We'll see what kind of promoter Jerry Douglas is. He could have a weekly show. 2-3 lap events per class and bring in the fans. That would be some real racing!

If he thinks that 6 events per year, with only elite clubs and big money is going to pay for his venture, he'd better think again.
$300-$1500 a weekend for lapping isn't gonna cut it.

The formula for this track is a weekly series. Everyone has seen the floor it go left, let's road race!

Good racing puts fans in the stands, sells burgers and beer and helps promote the sport!

Just hope they bring in Touring Day, great way to put some extra $$ into an event.
