Would you travel by bus either weekly or just special races , if  I were to start such a venture to help you save money , on gas, time,  admissions , programs , food or other expenses  . If you are interested in this reply here or to my personal e-mail [email protected]   This is just an idea , I had this before but never carried through with it  to see if there is enough interest  , if not then I won't pursue it .

Seriously?  Travel by Bus to LOCAL races?  What, are you goofy?   This is just an idea....JUST STOP......Although your posts do give me some comic relief........

 Sorry you feel that way , I am glad I entertain you , you know some people don't care to travel  or can't , drive for various reasons to local tracks or other races they might like to see . I am trying to do what  I can for fans and tracks to bring more people to tracks to support them .

In all fairness I would think in some areas it may work. How many fans that are no longer able to walk any long distances just might still like to attend local races. In many cases the walk from the parking lot alone or the side streets is more than some people can handle. A meeting spot for a bus ride to the gate just might be the ticket. A large metro area like Des Moines may have a good number of people that would like to make Knoxville on a Saturday night. That's a market to try and tap if it can be somewhat affordable. Maybe a ticket discount could be worked out with the race track. After all, those are tickets that would more than likely be unsold week after week.

Thanks Mr. Blazer00 for your comments , I give it some thought about what you said . I would make it affordable , and save fans money in  a package deal with tracks and so forth . I try to confey to fans I want to help them anyway possible to enjoy and save . I don't proclaim to have all the answers as my critics think , as I am very passionate about  racing and helping my fellow fan .

I own and operate a 14 passebger shuttle bus nothing about the service can be done cheap if done in compliance with dot. That said I have tried with extremly poor results to do this once a year.  The challenges I found is those vwho want to go bad enough to plan this many enjoy different things at races, so m e want to go early watch others want to arrive as hotlaps start, then same deal after races.

Hi , sir where are you located and you tell me more about your efforts ? at one race or tell me about this or e-mail me at the above address , thanks for your reply . I want to offer a service to fans if they are interested .

If it is an event with e-mods as an undercard that bus better be leaving immediately after the sprint A or I will be comandeering the bus like Sandra Bullock in the movie Speed.

And I will be leaving all others behind including the driver.

I would use it if I get to wear my bus pants..

"Give me a diablo sandwich, a Dr. Pepper, and make it 
quick, I'm in a goddamn hurry." 

I tell you what, If there were a bus in my town that shuttled to Knoxville I would use it. It would be nice to leave the driving to someone else, have a few brewskis at the races and not have to worry about driving home.
