When sponsors talk, racers listen....lol

Yes Alexa, I will learn to love BHF.  I already like it and I still have yet to get into the top 3 there...

I just would like some closer venues is all.  They took the two closest rounds away... ???

You are learning, young Jedi racers.

We will later discuss the finer points of dealing with "the Empire"... ;) ;D

Anyhow, I know it's frustrating for you guys in Missouri, supposed to be Great Plains, and there seems to be few plains tracks. (Barber ain't exactly GP). Unfortunately the business of racing is complicated and convoluted. I think that's why CCS was reluctant to put out a tenative schedule.

Just focus on what you can reasonablly accomplish, and set some challenging goals; you just might surprise yourself. A positive attitude can take you a long way.

Breathe deep young Jedi, use the force...

Do or do not, there is no "try".

From Wichita(how much more plains can you get?), I'm in the same boat plus about 3 hours.  I think everything outside of HPT and MAM are 12 hours or longer for me, so I'll probably only be doing 2 rounds with CCS and that does suck!  Looks like I'll have to buy 3 licenses to do 6 races within a reasonable distance of me.  I have friends in Wichita and Salina that are in the same boat.

Okay.  I get it.
There's an element of complexity when setting up the regional race schedules.  Lots of tracks to consider.  Lots of people to consider.
So there's plenty of oppoprtunity to make racers unhappy.

But:
As I mentioned (whined about) last month......Gingerman?!  Twice?!
That track is on east coast time!  Heck, double up the visits to Autobahn or Blackhawk, it's closer for most of the GP folks!  While you're at it, double the MAM & Topeka visits.  Please!
Despite my crashing history at Gateway, I'm not opposed to holding a race there.  (& I don't want to get Dave Meyer upset!)
Plus, I believe that's the site of the GP regional banquet.  (Ahem!)

Despite the jab from Mister Dorn, Kevin I feel your pain.

Considering that I just bought an SV, I think that's probably your best decision....

The frame was snapped, the #3 rod was dangling from a hole in the cases, and what was left had been consumed by fire.  I said, "Hey, we've got all night!"

Hmm, Mister Dorn?! Jeez, that sounds so official!  ;D

Believe me, I understand Kevin's pain as well. I live in MN (which is in the midwest) and the closest tracks to me are Blackhawk at over 5 hours and Mid-A at almost 6 hours. Gingerman is 11 hours away, but after all, Like Dave says: Racer's race.

I have a feeling once Heartland Park is repaved, more dates will happen. So keep your chin up!

Actually, we were excited that the MW dates are all close except for MAM.  Close meaning 6-8 hours.  MAM is 14.  No matter where we are sent, it's going to be longer for some than others.  It's just part of the deal.

yeah, hopefully hpt will be redone for next season so that will help a lot.  Hell, might as well run CMRA next year if I am going to have to drive this much.. :(
