The travel time to Numidia is the biggest hurdle for anyone that was an Island regular.....myself included...

2 hours 10-15 minute out.......4 hours back thanks to insane Rt 80 holiday weekend traffic.....and not a fun ride.......

Would I prefer to race at Island? Well since it is half an hour from home that is a no brainer!!

But I am never locked into one race track and could care less about the points or the bracket finals.....Not interested in that program at all and have not been for many years...been there done that as the saying goes....


I will quote Bill C. here ....."best of luck to Melissa and crew and lets not have any more negative words on this thread".

X2 on your post.

..As a person who has experienced the "joy" of starting and re-booting a business..

..One successful weekend ,obviously does is "not" guaranteed a future without speed-bumps filled with $weat ..sleepless nights..and uncertainty.

Also Mr. Weather and the health of our local and regional economy can have the final say on the receivable ledgers....

With a lot of hard and focused work and some luck..thrown in...and in time,I think that team has a good SHOT.

As the OP, Just not lets SHOOT them. Thanks.
