I know Simpson has done a lot for Kws which was dying a few years back but I hate to see him move the base to Nevada for a series that has roots in Northern and Central California.As far as fans I don't think there any better than in California.

california is billions in debt which maybe started with grey davis and enron collaspe. tax base is less in nevada i would say, biz is good in that state.
as far as dan's comments peeps make mistakes right, wrong or indefferent plain and simple. he has grown the kws to more than 30 events a year which is not too shabby.
i will continue to support the series, 410's baybeee all the way!!!!!!!!
Ascot was the greatest of all time..
West Capital wasn't half bad either..
Life is good...

How come Nevada has a higher home foreclosure rate than California per capita? You ever been to Reno Carson City area on a weekday lately? Dead... And you say biz is good in that state, you better take a road trip NW. Yes, Dan has done wonders with KWS but if most of his races will be held in Nevada, then in my opinion you can throw out the checkerd flag and the only winner will be the 360 groups in California which i would hate to see happen since i prefer watching 410's first and 360's 2nd.. That is just my opinion which means nothing. I asume you probably know more than me as to what is going on.. So we just have to see how all this works out.

I dont think there is any way that Dan Simpson would be foolish enough to book the majority of KWS races in Nevada that would be monumentally dumb.
Cheers!

I would not say Dan Simpson is dumb but some of the things he has said and done could be classified as not very smart .for example one race at chio and one race at hanford and most important zero races at thunderbowl

I understand being a business man is tough,but having zero experience in running a professional racing series is even tougher having money is not answer especially when you tie the hands of management from spending money great business mendo everything possible to get the deal done but when come in as arookie dealing with promoters that have been doing racing as a business for most of there lives you cant come in with big egos

Firing Dean Mills but keeping Workin' Woody wasn't all that bright if you ask me. That's just my opinion and wtf do I know but I know I am not alone in that perspective. He's made some good decisions - George and Gary are two good examples. The racing game is hard and a lot of people think they are experts but they will never step away from their keyboards long enough to throw their name in the hat.

We were told last season, the KWS would have two seperate champions and one overall KWS Champ. Silver State and Golden State will have an equil amount of races in each state.(plus we get all the woo races with the exception of the two in Vegas). We will just have to wait for the schedule to find out what their intentions are.

No races for TULARE ? I haven't seen a schedule yet this year have you ? For tulare or KWS. If you have please direct me to it. If There are no races at tulare for KWS the only race I will see with the KWS this year will be the cotton classic. And guess ill watch the KWS guys when they run with WoO.
We need more sprint car racing at our home track.

I think Mr. Simpson has pretty much said the series is going to be based out of Nevada with the Fernley deal.I think it's a bad mistake. Just my opinion.

Operating out of Nevada will probably provide him with two benefits.
1. Tax savings
2. Fernley is closer to the Mustang Ranch than Rio Vista!

Names have been thrown into the hat but how many people can afford to work a real job then drive 3 to 4 hours and pay for there own hotels work for peanuts and drive home or get killed driving home the same night its a losing deal and I dont think thats fun some people think officals should get nothing for the time they spend doing something they have no control because of micro managing maybe they have not hired anyone that they can trust after all it is Dans money

it was announced at the trophy cup that there would be three or four races in nevada next year, 2013 before this announcement was made. no, never been racing there "yet" but i plan on it.
evidently business isn't good in reno, that is in nevada right? don't know about carson or any other city in nevada. tax base is why he is there no doubt or possibly, to grow the fan base and bring the 410's to nevada.
Ascot was the greatest of all time..
West Capital wasn't half bad either..
