Vintage Racing!!!
That is an old thought.
Miller Motorsports Parks wants to have their own Vintage Racing Organization.
Over the years, I have offered at least 100 ways to increase attendence and
income. Fallen and mixed with the dust in the wind.
It took me 3 years to have a clock in the Clubhouse.
The only sane and intelligent person working in some kind of thoughtful
position is John Gardner. He knows how to bring people and races to the track.
I'll shut my mouth. Could get me into trouble.

Based on several things...like last year's attendance, this year's prices, slim
major event schedule (NASCAR isn't there...probably because the 2010 NCWW
schedule hasn't been announced, but there's still no mention of any vintage
racing...and where's AHRMA?) and the moon being in the second house, I don't
think there will be much competition for any of the seats in the sit-down area.
At at least one of the events last year, they didn't even open it up.
At a time when they otta be GIVING away perks to draw crowds, they're raising
prices. This looks to me like something that management of failing companies
do so they can justify gutting it and shutting it down. I sincerely hope this
isn't the case. Maybe the off-road thing will draw crowds. I dunno. But I
also dunno why they don't put an arena-type supercross and off-road truck race
track in the infield of the east course. It seems like there's plenty of room
and it could be viewed from the clubhouse and several grandstands. If they
could build a temporary track in Rice Stadium (back when it was called that)
they could sure put one out in the middle of the east track.
I dunno. I'll just make the best of it for as long as I can. At least the salt
flats ain't goin away...unless a certain piece of legislative land grab H.R.
1925 to be exact is passed, which could possibly limit access to a whole lotta
the state of Utah....the salt flats aren't specifically mentioned, but the area
surrounding it is.

makes some valid points.)
Sorry for the political off-topic stuff, but it seems sorta valid in this
context. Ignore at your discretion.

I prefer the French Dip and all he raspberry iced tea I could drink. with tip
around $12.00. Not bad. But the ELITE Fee is EXPENSIVE. Was not bad in 06 &
07 when there was a lot of events and parties with the drivers and the retired
drivers, Andretti, Bondurant, Sally Swartz (Jimmy Clark's girl friend and
others).
Guess I am going to have to brow beat John Gardner for one of them wrist bands
and an orange vest for next year.
I did hear for next year that with the wrist band will only allow you use of
the stand up facility. The sit down ones are only for "fat-wallet" asses.
Please note I did not say Fat Asses.

All:
Just think, for $250.00 per major event, you can sit, in an air conditioned
room, on a bar stool and drink a beer.
Speaking of the Ace Cafe, Glen, the Hoosier Tire Sales/Service guy from
Phoenix, has told me that the food served at the cafe is the best "Track Food"
anywhere west of the Mississippi.
Thank you.

Driver’s Club Membership - $5,000
Racer’s Club Membership - $10,000

I might have been able to afford the membership in 06 or 07, 08 and 09 were
borderline and there's no way I could afford this...especially if I'm gonna
spend most of my day out in the elements using gear I could buy with that
grand. Makes the Ace Cafe look pretty good and the cooler in the back of the
Burb look even better. :)
