Annoyance at the Keystones

[Don Eckel 111]

I will usually drop in a tip once a day, not every time I go during the course of the day. I don't mind doing this if they are keeping them clean and tidy. In reality, if it weren't for the fact that there are some real swine among us that don't know how to use a bathroom without making a mess, those attendants probably wouldn't be necessary.

They must do very well by these tips. the "toilet gang" was parked near us they drove in a hummer then changed into their red t-shirt uniforms.
Anyway, I also don't think you should have to pay to use a toilet. and I do find it quite like pan-handling....

The toilets at Maple Grove look better than the over priced garbage they call food.

[Ed Fernandez]

And who do you think makes a ****house of the ****houses at these tracks??????
Whenever I used them at the races I attended they were almost always clean. Save your complaints for real issues like run schedules,entry fees,bad track prep,etc. etc. etc.

Ever notice that dirty restrooms have cheap thin toilet paper.

I would pay $1.00 to get rid of the rotten egg smelling water at Gainesville.

U/SA oooh oooh that smell, can't you smell that smell

But what really annoys me is paying someone a dollar to hand me a paper towel each time that I go to the bathroom. The first time that I ever saw this was at Englishtown, but it seems to have spread, like the plague, to Atco, Maple Grove, and Cecil County, I believe.

Now, I’ve been to upscale motels where the maitre D hands you a towel, but they were never looking for a tip. And I know that half of the racers today have motor homes and can escape this nuisance. But if NHRA’s true customers are the spectators, then why allow them to be subject to this fleecing? Wouldn’t it be better for the tracks to have their own personnel to take care of the bathrooms, and pay them to do so? If 15,000 people really show up for one of these races, and each pays just a quarter, there’s almost an additional $4000 being coerced from your customers.
Maybe I’m just too cheap, but for spending 5 days at Maple Grove, this is what annoyed me the most. And it annoys me every time I see it at other tracks, too.

Greg get you a mh and they charge you to park overnite.

Day 1, Year 2016: 3 guys to clean the bathroom, tip jar present, no paper towels.

What the h3ll, if the place is kept clean, I don't mind it so much. I just don't give a handful of change every trip.

If my memory is correct, Maple Grave has never been able to build proper facilities because of environmental restrictions. Same reason it took many years to get a return road down the pit side of the track.

Come on.... it shouldn't require an Act of Congress replace a worn out antiquated ****ter.
