That scoreboard is a joke anyway. They need to upgrade...this is the perfect reason to upgrade.

Honestly, I don't think the scoreboard has worked 100 percent for the last few years. It was good in it's time but its older technology and seems pretty susceptible to lightning. I think a decent board a little larger will run 250,000. Much needed upgrade in my opinion. Rumor is it is on the list but not sure how far out.

I agree it was cool when it first came out but now its way out of date. With all the upgrades about to go into that place you would think that would be included. Maybe another one in turn 1? Smile

Maybe they can squeeze a new HD screen into that new law that Guvn'r Branny signed about a month ago.  

It would be kinda nice to bring the same video feed that the suites enjoy to the masses.

Really, the score board is an issue? I which the hell I had a local track here that had 80 sprint cars every week and a junk score board.......

Another +1    You folks bring yourselves down to the Dallas area and experience racing at one of our crappy tracks.   You'll get to sit through mods, sportmods, I stock, hobby stock, street stock, factory stock, and usually at least one class with "Jr" or "mini" in the name.    Then you finally get to see the fifteen or twenty 305 sprints that are there.   

 

And then of course there's Devils Bowl, but do I really want to open that can of worms....   I see the people at Husets struggling to race Sunday night after there track was underwater, and then I consider Devils Bowl cancelling a show with 50 ASCS national sprints scheduled to compete and not a single drop of rain at the track all day.    You folks really do have it lucky.

 

Excellent post DIMB

Comment on what you know. The new scoreboard is awesome. Need to work on a couple of problems but I think most of the are operator error.

I wouldn't mind if they left the small ticker board on the wall by the push off area in turn 1 that they had while they were replacing the old one. These eyes aren't getting any younger. The new board looks great though.

New scoreboard is nice. Thanks K'Ville for continuing to make investments in the track, facilities, and amenities.
