          If the Youngs want the track open so bad, why don't they just let someone run the track free of charge. I know that If I owned it but didn't want to run it and wanted it open for all my fellow racers I would work out a deal for someone that would be a win win...

              Plenty of cars in each class

              Butts in the stands

                        What went on between Timmy, Jody, Steve , the Young family & whoever else may have been involved with running the track is entirely their business and no one elses. Why should it matter who did what to who or who said this or that except to those people. The main concern should be trying to help keep N Ga Speedway open not trying to put the blame on anyone for the problems that they are having. Instead of getting on here and bashing them how about trying to offer your help to keep the track open.

                        A few others have said it and i wholeheartly agree with them, running the racetrack is a business and for a business to stay open it has to be run as a business and make at least some money. As someone who has worked most of my adult life working for myself i think i can speak intelligently about that. ( of course i'm sure there is more than one person who will say using my name & intelligent in the same sentence is a oxymoron... LOL) There is a lot more invovled than just opening the gates and collecting money. Even if the track sits idle someone still has to pay for the taxes, power, water etc... Someone has to come mow the grass and fix any problems with the buildings before they become major problems.

                        So with that said how about everyone calm down and lets see what Timmy, the Youngs and anyone else involved can come up with to keep the track going.

                            "Just A Shame"

                            I would be more than happy to run a couple of weeks without a payout. It is a shame to see a track as nice as North Ga with the gates closed on a saterday nights.

                              I'm sure there is more to it than i know but.....

                              ill hate all i want to because its ridiculous. Everyone that isnt working toward keeping the track open and running is letting down drivers, fans, and our community. I would love to hear one good reason why the doors are closed, and i emphasize good drama isnt a good enough reason for me.

                              the last two weeks it was open there were a ton of cars there, more than i have seen on regular race night since timmy got the track. i do my part, i paid for my spot to park in i cut enough money out of my check every week to get me and my family/friends in, i dont know what else the simple people can do to help.

                                Well i have to agree with you garacefan it is unfair to all of us. And it such a shame to see such a great track done like this year after year. But as it seemed this year was gonna be a good year for NGS. Because the car count was up and the track was running good. And then just out of the blue it was closed and pure drama followed. So at this point all i guess we can do is hope the Youngs wise up and make the rite call to get the track back open in the next week or so. Because it would be a shame for them to wait to long and the drivers and fans, and the vrs and the folks from the other big races planed for north ga this year to start moving to other tracks. And as this may happen it would be tough to get folks back after they move on to other tracks. So lets just hope we as drivers and fans alike that have suported NGS for the last few years lets hope we hear word soon on this great track!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
