I thought for the most part it went well. There were some issues and concerns that I thought would be addressed for the races the following year. For your efforts last year you got two races for 2007. I expected a little more from your track to stay on the Maine Motocross Series schedule. Did you think that we would not see or comment on your progress thus far. I’m sure you work hard on your track but you have to look at it from our point of view. We have too much money invested in this sport to have a new track owner pulling the wool over our eyes. For example, explain why you didn’t groom behind the gates from last years race and why the track wasn’t groomed for the racers for this race? It didn’t seam to be a big priority for you to make your track look good. It was my observation you need some help to get your track into shape for the race but I didn’t see you ask for help on this web site. With my kids being members of the Maine Motocross Series that travels around the state to different tracks, we look forward to camping and racing at professionally ran tracks. I do know the amount of effort it takes to get a track into shape and I do know what it takes to get a crew for race day. It also looked like you were reinventing the wheel on the way things should run from where your EMTs’ were positioned to the watering of your track and leaving a puddle of water for the 50’s on the start line. Even the A &amp; B riders had some choice words to say. It looked like it was your first attempt at running a race. My point to this is if you need some help put the word out. I know people would be happy to arrive early to help once they get to your track on Saturday. I don’t want this to be a personal attack on you or your staff. We as members feel we deserve to be treated as a valuable customer and deserved to be heard. I would like to thank the Thunder Worriers for working that day. Its not easy to work and race. It also shows how much they care for the sport, the series and there home track. Finally to the MMS membership, please make comments and suggestions that would improve this facility. <BR></P><P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"></P><P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"></FONT></FONT>Wed, 08 Aug 2007 13:05:57 GMTMMS820Dad
