: Moldy, go to auto club Famoso and click on
: their home page Latest News and Press
: releases. Scroll down to Marsh Meet is no
: Drag to Kern County economy. It gives the
: dollar statiscs in that artical. I think one
: of the things that hurt all forms of
: motorsports is the fact that very few racers
: haul there race cars on open trailers like
: back in the day, so most people dont ever
: think about race cars. I rember when I was a
: kid if I saw a race car on the highway I
: would make my Dad speed up just so I could
: look. I know we cant stop technoligy and in
: todays world most people haul ther race cars
: in enclosed trailers, So that could be one
: reason people dont take racing very serious,
: Ill say one thing, even though the economy
: is bad, RACERS will continue to race no
: matter what, they always do. Basicly the
: racers are a stimulus package. Ive run two
: races this year already and we had overflow
: car counts at both events. The MARCH MEET
: alone cut off excepting entries at 500 cars.
: So the racers are definetly stimulating the
: economy. Lets let the city officals see what
: else they can come up with to compete with
: the racers money they are letting get away,
: because they dont want to be bothered with
: supporting a new track in the AV. I guess I
: have rattled on long enough. Hope this info
: helps Moldy. Im here to help.

: I see on Famosos web site this morning, that
: they expect to bring to the city of
: Mcfarland about 5 and a half million dollars
: from the crowd at the March Meet, down a
: little from last years 6.6 million, but the
: economy is down a little this year. I would
: think the city of Palmdale could do the same
: thing if they would do the same thing at the
: defunct airport that they have ties to. This
: is just one event, doesnt this city see what
: they are missing out on? Racing nowdays is
: big bussiness not a back street activity. We
: need another track in this valley and this
: city needs to move on it. Thats enough for
: now , but Im not done yet.

: that we are a capable track and the av needs
: us. by all means lets support this effort
: and get our track back.and most of all get
