    Swami a.k.a. Jon Weber this is exactly what hurts the racing industry people who think they can see or predict the future .To clear things upTom Weatherall hasTwin Cities as a sole owner and all transactions concerning track with known saler will be finalized prior to races starting.I have been contracted to promote the track for the 2017 season it's no secret there are several people who are helping with the reconstruction but there are NOT multiple investors or advisors or special committees to direct or advice what I need to do All racing decisions or day to day operations will be handled by me as per Tom.Tom has been very supportive of the track improvements I have asked to do such as new pit shack new front gate building replacing PA speakers repairing bleachers new deep fryers in both concession stands the list goes on. We currently have 47 loads of new dirt on the grounds and 253 more to come as soon as mother nature allows.We realize a lot of people have ideas or opinions I am always willing to discuss ideas with anyone.With that being said let's ALL make Twin Cities great againThanks Tim Keithley Promoter Twin Cities 2017812-569-1982

        I have always kinda liked this place, hopefully it gets going well this year.

        Any idea of a schedule or a night you will be racing on?

        Throw up some pics when you get a chance too please.

        Just say no...

          I was there once a few years back and I Saw very good potential for the track just seemed the track needed to be worked in just a little bit more. Good luck and hope to make it down soon

            I really hope the season is a success for this place! I haven't been to many races here for a lot of years. Used to run on Fridays and that was good for drivers/fans I believe (Not everyone can run on Saturday). Looks like some upgrades may be on their way. However, If you want a good facility, a good place to start is the restrooms... I can't believe how overlooked this can be sometimes... many families won't come if restrooms don't feel at least somewhat sanitary (working order/cleaned and monitored).

              Was wondering if you guys could put up a large partition in the first turn to block out the sun????

              Maybe plant some Redwoods???

                The sun is a problem in turn 1, unless they have rotated the track. lol

                    I'm still trying to figure out how posts are hurting racing? I thought low car counts and fan counts was the problem?

                      From what I have seen, Mr. Keithley has already started out right. Just cleaning the place up is a big start. Hope this place sees more cars come through the front gate this year.

                          Yeah like 60 loads, It'll take at least 600 to make a difference

                            Biggest problem with the track is the sand. Since I can remember they have pumped water from the same place out of the creek. right off a big sandbar. were just 25 -50 yards upstream is slate and rock base with no sand.
                            Might need to possibly think about moving the pumps upstream a bit to take advantage of the sand free water.
                            I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.
