Damn we need Like buttons on here!
I don't know the beef behind this or the people it involves any more than a screen name and in some cases a face. But what I do know is this Crandall event is the only sanctioned diesel racing/sled pulling event we have in the big ass state of Texas! We should appreciate these guys coming out and take the punches when it comes down to it. With this negativity we might end up bracket racing with the gassers here in Texas. If they have to change tracks to make things right so be it. It would make sense to provide useful feedback on improving the events instead of bashing them.
Registration opened when it was suppose to, however when the racing should have started and the drivers meeting there were 12 trucks registered who wants to come to a show and watch 12 trucks (you may have been there but you were not registered), so then you all would have complained that no one was there and it sucked.
How would you like to payout all the costs to put on a race and have it for 12 racers not worth it.
Does anyone have a clue how much money it takes. Rent track 7-11 thousand depends on where. Paying your staff, flights and rental cars because there all from OH, MO, PA, MI lets say another 3-5 thousand, you pay for advertising, food costs for all your help, now registration this time was cut in half with a free hook, ( no one appreciated that) now sit back and do the math none of the staff is in this for the money it's for the fun and love of the sport, who wants to get paid $100 bucks to fly down to Texas and get yelled at and called a prick or worthless hell i am sure we can stay home for that. We all have other jobs and I am quite sure they are not Tractor mechanics and used car salesmen, and guess what families too that we have to pack up and leave for a weekend fly in a 10pm wake up race all day and wake up at 7am to fly back home, But yeah your welcome for the racers/pullers who appreciated it.
You need a fast truck down there, just so you dont get shot in a drug war shoot out.
I'm surprised no one has a done like a diesel border shootout down south in south Texas ..like in edinburge Texas wich is close to the border of Mexico. Not sure how many people would make the trip but the truck scene is offthe charts down there
I'd be down for that one, I could make it a business trip since I sell almost every truck dealership in Pharr. lol
