    Smoky Mountain Speedway takes the lead...

    Smoky Mountain Speedway congratulations on taking the lead in the year long race of tracks that flat out screw the fans...
    You have managed to pass every track to date with your lack of common sense and with that comes several raw a$$ fans that will never step foot back on your facilities...
    Hope you are proud of your accomplishment...

    Those fans bare some responsibility as well. In fact, a reasonable argument can be made that the fan was the one with lack of common sense.

      no one made you go, your choice. you knew the risk, and assumed all responsibility. I knew the risk and stayed home.

        I don't know if anyone has noticed or not....this guy never has anything good to say. I wouldn't have left the house with the way the forecast was looking.

          He probably didn't go but he knows everything sitting there behind his keyboard.

              wfofan I feel your pain. It just seems that so many tracks are doing a poor job at so many different things it has gotten frustrating. I'm a diehard fan just like you I'm presuming, which makes us easy prey for greedy promoters. Over the years my darling wife has instituted a few rules to help me not be disappointed at dirt tracks. Maybe these could help you out in the future. 1. Never go to races in march too risky. (Yes this was actually her first rule) 2. If the bad nights at a track start to outnumber the good, don't go back no matter what. 3. If mods are there as a support class, don't go. 4. Never buy tickets to a non crown jewel ahead of time. (race cancelled loudspeaker says no cash refunds) 5. Remember if you call and ask about race status the track always says yes were racing everything is fine.

                This entire deal just looks fishy from the beginning.

                  Sometimes you just need to use common sense and see thru the promoters.

                    Agreed. With that forecast, shouldn't have even attempted to go to the race.
                    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                        If you can see the forecast, why put it on the track, if you go to a snow out. If you look at the schedules in that area, you would have to schedule it for a week night, for months and months, which is exactly what they had to do. Think about the empty seats on a week night, due to work. If that snow would have gone a little north or south, they would have been heroes. This time of year, we all have seen the weather prognosticators off in left field. We all appreciate the early call, but I can see the tracks side too.

                          I'd say the track will pay for the way it handled this event...

                            Doubt it. They tried, you people just had very high expectations with a sh!t forecast.

                              I'm not sure how you look at that forecast and not cancel. I'm really not sure how you look at that forecast and get in the car willingly.
