Topic: PASER Monday Race Schedule
Track owners are always trying to improve their programs in an effort to provide racers with quality track and race time. From time to time I have sent out questionaires to try to get a feeling for what racers are looking for. The general response has normally been less than what I had hoped for. Attendance last night at the PASER Monday racing at Rob's Redline Raceway was low. We did however have some great casual racing as well as some bench racing. We also discussed possible changes to the Monday schedule.
We decided to change the Monday schedule to a single night race, with the doors opening early enough for those (like retirees) that can make it to the track before evening rush hour traffic. The plan is for the doors to open at 3:00 pm for practice/open track. One class will be raced starting at 6:00 pm. The format will allow for race completion by 8:00 pm depending on attendance. Most likely one round of racing with 3 or 4 minute heats (again depending upon attendance).
We have had great success with the Monday schedule in the past. I am not sure what exactly is contributing to the low turn outs. Feel free to comment here! ========Bill
