Are water trucks being banned?

[Clayton_Wetter]

I guess they read this thread. It was dustier than ever last night. Thank you for not caring about the fans!!

[hoodpin]

Go to your local track and offer to help one weekend. You will be worn out, I will guarantee you that!!

[Clayton_Wetter]

Maybe the track wouldn't be dusty and blackened in hot laps if it was cut up 5 or 6 inches? How about giving it a try??

[hoodpin]

Have you ever done it??

[ChrisNunn]

Come on hoodpin. You know he's not going to get up off the bleachers to attempt it. If he has his way all the tracks would look like the abomination that Rockford was

Why do you send me emails about good race track surfaces with little dust and tacky and turn around and put me down on the forum? You can't have it both ways. Either you like dusty rock hard and usually one lane racing or you like the track prepared with some moisture down in it, which is it?

And CN your Rockford comment was uncalled for. It's just your way of being cute I realize.

I like a track to look like this.


NOT THIS



When fans quit coming to races because of the dust, they don't usually call the promoter to tell them why. I am trying to make a difference for those people in the future and speaking up for them.

Why would people want to set at a track and get covered with dirt every Saturday night? Many have sinus and lung issues, I see them covering their mouths with rags but it gets in your eyes real bad to. I'm not afraid to point this out.

Water the track to keep the fans and bring the others that have quit back. Makes total sense.

I'm done talking with promoters about track issues. I've learned that it doesn't not make one bit a difference. They are going to do what they see fit. Been there and done that enough to have learned that much.

[old fan]

if its good racing I will sit thru anything as long as the track does not lock down , and CW just giving you chit

[ChrisNunn]

I see some black slick in your reference picture.

I see some black slick in your reference picture.

I know we put 52 loads on a track this past weekend and it was dusty in the heats. Terrible.

[Clayton_Wetter]

Yes you sure do, in the "NOT THIS" photo.

[Clayton_Wetter]

Work a track for a week and then get on here griping about promoters.

What kind of equipment would I get to use? I'm partial to discs!! And a good harrow. Plus a water truck big enough to water a race track not a garden.

Or is it just a grader and the famous sheepsfoot?

[Clayton_Wetter]

It happened again. The dust was just horrible. And a driver I talked too did hate the track surface.

Got a feeling this is all kind of controlled by certain people.

[Rollover]

what track or tracks are you talking about?

hoodpin, what track do you or have you worked at?
