Three or four years ago Houston Raceway Park signed a multiple year contract with Royal Purple Synthetic Oil for the naming rights for the Baytown track. At that time there was talk from the track about future improvements to the facility. About 5 years ago we had a similar rain that flooded the north pit area, racers had to leave many rigs due to muddy conditions. Racers returned a week later to complete the race. With the ever increasing expansion of pro parking most sportsmen racers below Comp find themselves in the north pit area. The conditions in this area have not improved in the 5 year period. It looks like with Royal Purple's name on this track there would be an interest on their part to work with the track to provide a facility that can accommodate all accepted entrants. Many of the entrants that were effected by the muddy conditions use Royal Purple products. Maybe it's time for racers to let Royal Purple hear from their customers.
Racers can go to
WWW.ROYALPURPLE.COM then hit contact and you can send an email to Royal Purple letting them know in numbers how we feel. Maybe with Royal Purple's help some pressure can be put on the operators of the Baytown track. Racers have two options, they can quit using Royal Purple products and make the decision on when they return to the Baytown track.
