Well... Fall happened. Nothing bad, just that time of year where it is time to shut it down for the season. Last year they shut down around Halloween as well if I remember correctly. I have no doubt they'll be back out when the weather is nice after the 1st of the year, in the new racing season.

I am not aware of the new hang out... Starbucks is always a good standby I suppose.

Ummm. I give up... who cares if the authorities are in place to keep law and order? I would bet you $500.00 that I could go there , have a good time, and never talk to Johnny! Pick a night.

I'm glad they are there. Hell I kinda wish they would make a lap or two through the Xtreme meet... maybe they would keep some of the ******** from coming around. It amazes me how people cannot offer the same respect others offer them...... who wants to pick up other peoples trash, been there done it. Beer bottles, cans, cigarette packs soda cups, fast food bags and all kinds of **** after everybody leaves. Yeah that's alot of fun.

Well it's that sort of annoying **** that nobody wants to see. There really is no good reason for it. Besides, all it takes is one moron doing something like that while he is not paying attention to have an accident. Then what?

If everybody... I mean everybody would respect the property then I am sure there would not be any attention from the authorities. It's that simple.

I do wish there were a time when everybody could get together and not have any issues... but I guess that is a pipe dream.

They were up there early because of the Saturday before. Stupid idiots were revving and attemtping to do burnouts and the new owner of the lot had them out there. The wrecker was there just to pick up non-starting car. They should be letting everyone stay till midnight this coming Saturday.

And you can have a coffee, but you can't be standing out in the parking lot. They consider it loiterring and the new owner of the lot (who happens to be a lawyer) gave permission to ticket everyone. Whether you have or don't have a cup of coffe/ donut/ HR paperwork/what have you.

If y'all haven't noticed, if people are being stupid the weekend before, the cops are usually there the next weekend to shut the area down early.
