Hey Guys, Thanks for your support. As most of you know, many people do not have any idea about how many different forms of racing there is, we are trying to present these different forms of racing to the general public. We know there will be a crowd here during the Fair and want to get as much exposure for all these forms of racing during the Fair.
I have scheduled mud trucks along with the golf karts once again during this event. The mud truck venue draws a crowd, and I would like to present the golf carters form of racing to the crowd during this event. At the last event everybody was amazed by the golf karters, the atv's and mud truckers couldn't believe there eyes. The crowd also enjoyed the golf karts in the deep mud, that was the shows highlight.
I did not get to meet you all during the event, we had asked for suggestions for your racing community, and had recieved some advise. We take all comments & sugestions to heart, if we can't supply you with the type of facility you enjoy, than you won't be back . We understand that.
After the Fair we will be able to dedicate a day or weekend to each of the events we intend to run, so nobody will feel like a step child.
Thanks for understanding, Hope to meet all of you during the Fair Event

On this fourm you say 150 ft. And another you say 120 ft.

which one is it . I would hate to get there & the track end up being 1/8 mile with my carts being set up for 150 ft. And can you describe the track substance, & would you say it was more ~tacky~slick~loose~packed ?
 
HEY RONNIE THE TRACK WILL BE 120' WE HAD TO SHORTEN THE LENGTH FOR SAFTEY PURPOSES. THIS EVENT WILL BE HELD DURING THE COUNTY FAIR. WE ALSO HAVE SCHEDULED FOR THAT DAY MUD TRUCK DRAG RACING. THERE WILL BE A LOT OF ACTIVITY IN THE ARENA. AS STATED IN A PREVIOS POST, I WOULD LIKE TO EXPOSE GOLF CART RACING TO THE PUBLIC. DURING THE FAIR, THERE WILL BE A LOAD OF PEOPLE IN THE STANDS TO WATCH THE ACTION.
AFTER THIS EVENT WE WILL ISOLATE A DAY OR WEEKEND SPECIFICALLY FOR GOLF CART RACING AND BE ABLE TO LENGTHEN THE TRACK AND ADD MORE FEATURES TO THE TRACK FOR YOU'ALL.
THE SURFACE WILL BE SMOOTH, FRESH, RED CLAY SLIGHTLY DAMP. THANKS BILL
