I stand by my prior post. It isn't about Port working with Williams Grove. Its about the management at Port not missing the National. 



Agree 100%

Are you saying the management from Port Royal wants to go watch the National Open as spectators?

Yes. Some of the management team attend Williams Grove on a regular basis. Just because they run the track doesn't mean they aren't fans. They travel outside of the area to places like Knoxville and Eldora to spectate. It's part of the reason why Port is dark those weekends. When management is elsewhere there is no one to run the show so they go dark. It isn't simply about losing a few cars because some local cars are traveling to those shows. The Grove National is the largest 410 race in PA and they are fans too and want to be there.

BINGO....nothing wrong with that. It helps them make improvements to their operation by seeing what other tracks do to run a sucessful program. I wish other promotors would leave the porch and venture out to other tracks to take notes of the Good, Bad & Ugly, it would only help their own facilities.

So Port Royal changes the date of their big 305 race "to work with other tracks."

Yet Lincoln has a super late model race scheduled when the WoO is at Port this Saturday. 
This whole working with other tracks is so overrated. The 305 race at Port should NEVER have been moved. It's been on the schedule the entire year. Everyone knows why it was changed, but it's wrong. They should run Saturday. 
 

Lincoln doesn't care if they take fans away from Port Royal this week, so Port shouldn't care if fans went to Port instead of WG. The fan base at Port for the 305s is small and would be few if any would be taken away from WG. 



Looked like there was about 50 fans in the stands for the SLM's at Lincoln. I think the race was promoted by the Bernheisels(Lazer chasis) and not the Lincoln promotional team. Decent field of cars though and a good 2 division show with the 358's.

Nice to see the local tracks getting along. I'll probably be dead, but I can see one day somebody or someone owning all the central PA tracks.

I think Late Models & 410s have a different set of fans...

I am sure that you have not learned this yet, but there are many times in life that telling the truth is disrespectful. Some things are better thought and not said.

I'm a fan of both but of course prefer 410's to any other divisions. Nothing wrong with a dirt late model though. LM's have been a staple at Selinsgrove and Port Royal since the beginning of time so they are pretty popular at those 2 tracks, much moreso than Williams Grove or Lincoln.

How do you know the news isn't true if you don't watch it???

Sounds like you've got your head in the sand (or up your "you know what")

OK. I'll say what I'm thinking then. You come off as an immature dumbass on the internet, here and on Facebook.

So where do you get your "facts", if not from the news???

I guess maybe since you never go to The Port, you have plenty of time to tour places like the Ukraine?

Always beware of someone claiming to be telling you "the truth".

You think repeating over & over that what you say is "true" proves anything?

You must think you're The Pope or something like that...

Can you produce any data to back your 99.9% claim. No you cannot possibly do that. You just made that up. It is not the truth, so you are actually lying. Show me the numbers.

Wow, a rare visit from Kokomo's USAC Ambassador to the Universe! ;)

Thanks Dr. Funkenstein.... ;)
