No Problem Raceway Sold

Pat, I know this has been a while coming and I am happy for you both. Make sure the new owners realize that your never ending dedication to the racers is why the place is such a success. I hope they carry that on.

I'll be down this weekend to drink a few beers with you, and thanks for the deal on the stocker

its gonna be a great little race car once i get it a little more hp

Pat, congratulations. I hope your health improves, and I hope you enjoy the fruits of your labors. If the new owners abide by your sage wisdom, they'll succeed beyond what they ever thought possible.

Jim Wahl · 03-22-2011, 12:48 PM

I guess we all knew this was coming. Lord knows you certainly deserve a break as you have worked so hard to make NPR one of the premier and fun tracks in this country or anywhere else! You two have fun and don't go too far! We still need people like you in this sport. Jim

Greg Hill · 03-22-2011, 01:41 PM

Congratulations old friend. I know you and Linda have both put your heart and soul into No Problem and I hope it paid off for you. Good luck with your future plans. I know a bunch of race tracks that could benefit from your wisdom.

Speedworld in Whitman, AZ would be a great place for you to drop in as a consultant!

Dan Bennett · 03-22-2011, 03:34 PM

Pat, I think I know where you're coming from since a motorcycle wreck in 03 changed my life forever. As much as I hate to see you leave the "funnest" track in the country I I think you and Linda are doing the right thing.

At first I was really upset to lose your talents, but then it dawned on me that now you might have a chance to show the other 95% of track operators how a facility OUGHT to be run.

Best wishes and never forget to have fun.

Pat & Linda, good luck, and Pat, I'll be letting you know about our **** chat we talked about this past weekend about other races

Ron Ortiz · 03-22-2011, 08:17 PM

Pat, you deserve the break that you need. Thank you for all the great times I had when I had the opportunity to attend. I wish that I could have gone this year but economics had a great deal to do with it. I know that you will be a tremendous asset to other track operators if they follow only a part of your strategies in making a racer friendly experience.
And thank you to all the wonderful people that I have met at the Cajun Sportsnationals, you guys are the best. Good luck Pat and Linda, thanks again.

U/SA the U/SA shootout was the best.
