Count the old man in, I was talking to Steve yesterday and told him I wasn't sure how they are doing the parking this year spectator parking may be outside the gate. I don't know. Gates open at 5 pm, track at 6pm on friday TnT, gates open at 1 pm, track at 2 pm on saturday racing. Thunder Road will be racing for a purse starting saturday, but the points don't start til March 20th.

If they think I'm going to park outside in the mud and **** I will not be coming. This will probably be the case for alot of people also.....Why does it always seem that there is some bullshit going on with this track?

I discussed this concern with Wayne yesterday. You cant park in that field you would get stuck. Hell its a damn pasture. With all this rain they would be foolish to try and pull that ****.

I agree that Friday is going to determine how often I return. In my mind's eye, I can see our cars/trucks lined up by the fence past the beer garden, cooking burgers, hanging out, having a good time etc., often. Hope they don't **** it up.
Would REALLY **** me off if they said something about grilling, and I'll never park in the mud.

Hey Wayne, find out what happened? WTF with these people! I was just getting the old boat ready to take some of that SuperStreet money, and I get this e-mail, AHRA gone, track closed again, until further notice!!

Maybe it had something to do with the way the AHRA was treating the would be racers? You know they had 2-3 guys on the TRRP forum bitching about various things so the AHRA made them remove the forum. I know that pissed off a bunch of people. I think I might just sell all my junk and start fishing more! It seems like ever since it opened up in 98 it has been nothing but BS week after week. Damn I miss Hallsville!!

Well I e-mailed the track and ask "just what was up and what the plans are?" got a reply that they could not talk about what happened with AHRA at this time andthey are looking for a track manager. So what it looks like to me is another year of a late start of racing, which means all the cars will start points racing at other tracks and we won't get a car count again this year. I just don't understand how they think Thunder Road can exist like this.

It is not TRRP causing the issues this time. I was told AHRA has not paid any rent for the 3 months or so that that have had control of the track and they also never produced any proof of insurance and the guys that own TRRP pulled the plug on the AHRA not the other way around like the AHRA makes it sound on their site.

I think i might have to head up to prescott and do some racing instead of waiting and hopeing something happens at TRR. Presocott has always hooked hard and there is not bull **** on if they are open or not,seems i had to call or look online to see if TRR is open before leaving.

Im heading out for prescott at 10:30 any of you that want to go are more than welcome to follow me. If you don't want to go and rather set at home on opening day of racing season and bitch&moan to your wife that you dont have anywhere to go racing it is your own fault! Either way im sure she is smiling on the inside that you don't have a track to race at and you are going to do her errons with her and watch kids all day while she does what she wants ![Nod](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_nod.gif)

Those of you who are single have nothing to say.....period!![Chuck Ball](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/chuck-ball.gif)
This will be our little secret between us......the exuse that prescott is not a full 1/4 mile is not working anymore because you know why???? None of the other tracks around are either since they are shut down
Come on up and try something new or just keep whinning about TRR.
