wow what a race, most fun we have had a race in a long time. Perris is FIRST CLASS all the way around, such a awsome place to have to race at. The track went dry in the main. Super stocks were the last to race and having what i believe one of the smaller motors in the class we were able to make good chassis adjustments and win the main. I beleive it was some of the best racing that ive seen in a long time. All the classes put on a awsome show. Am letting everyone know that if you haven't ever race there you really really need to go, everything from the track to the racers and the officals were top notch. The car count was a little low i really thought there were be a few more super stocks but they made the best of it. I really hope if you maybe plan on racing there some time soon to make the trip there because i don't think your'll regret it. Also they are like other tracks and need car counts to keep classes around so make a effort to support all the tracks that you can. otherwise in the long run we might not have a place to race.

was a great race and had a good time as well. hate to see the car count so low and that there were a couple more cars missing from the super stocks this last race. i agree on the motor as the track just flat went away and i think i burned my RR off trying to close the gap the middle 10 laps. good fun racing tho and always fun to see us valley boys show um how its done, 1 and 2.

like andrew said, 7 cars. and btw, i got the infamous "checks in the mail" which as of saturday, i still didnt have. people have cars out there, i think the promoters are trying everything they can, i just hope the car counts pick up soon.

the one thing i hate to see is when car counts are super low, guys running all over each other for nothing. i know its racing and some guys have the "rubbing is racing" mind state but be aware of whats going on around you. you have six cars racing, tearing the sh!t out of each other for 200 bucks isnt going to help your car counts. race hard, but race clean, car counts will increase.

very well could be. having one driver run over half the field then not receive any money for getting run over might drive guys off. especially as expensive as these cars can get to rebuild.

on a side note, i hear yuma is supposed to run a turkey race, the indian tribe is insisting it, on the same weekend we have ours. so it appears it will become a bidding war, which i'm pretty sure the indians will win, so god knows what will happen with our turkey race. i hope its not the final nail in the coffin of the most recent edition of imperial valley speedway.

yeah thats a good point, i thought in all if was pretty fair and decent racing. One thing to is that there are two cars out there that are real tight on a point championship there which us from out of town aren't, they might be fighting a little harder for postion since they are so close in points. But i agree you need to keep cars out there, its better for the racers, the promoters, the offical, and of course the fans the more cars you have. Also russell if you want any more pic i will try to email you a few my sister took quite a few. As far as yuma i wouldn't beleive everything you hear yet. something doesn't seem right about that.

well the thing about yuma is they have a casino and i believe hotel near by. they dont care if they lose money on the racing as long as they feel they can make it up on casino traffic. if they want a turkey race because they think they can bring traffic over during a very important consumer weekend, they won't even blink to offer another 2k to win. 5k to win over 3k to win is a no brainer for for guys traveling. and if they are targeting people traveling, 2k is easy to make up with just a couple family's in the casino... just an observation.

you nailed it on the head. the thing that scares me is that if they don't see a increase that they think is noticable they will just drop the whole thing and if for some reason we no longer race in imperial and yuma goes away for some reason as well what do us local racers have to choose from. Also there rules for the pro stocks really need some changing to make them work, they would have to do and open comp show to pull and good amount of cars. i really really bleive this year at our turkey race we can get a large turnout of cars with a little more advertising and letting people know its out there. i guess time will tell, do you plan on going there in sept or going back to perris.

i really dont know what my plans are for the next few months. i'm usually super busy with work and its always a last minute thing. i dont know that i'll race yuma the 11th and i certainly wont race the week before we start up again in imperial. but then again, supporting local tracks is the best way to get cars in return, so who knows.

and i dont think the indian tribe would spend as much money as they already have to just give up on it after a few months of not seeing profits. the thing is, they own the track so they only have to reason in the mortgage to the profitable of racing. if they paid for the ground outright, then they can choose to race much cheaper. they will be able to make ends meet or darn near just at the race track and the traffic they get to the casino is simply gravy. i'm not going to not support yuma as i'm afraid of what the future is with our own racetrack.

yeah i guess support whatever closet and what support us. i hope yuma and imperial work. i don't know if you heard but they are having a member meeting thrus. the 29th at the BBQ guy to go over where we are as a association and where to go from here. It doesn't look like the fair board is going to give any help but if you want to talk about any of that we will in a private message. Good job last night by the way, its funny both you and brent spun out but finished 1 and 2.

They only run us 1 time per year, so the rules will be on the Turkey Classic flyer, out in a couple of months
