Good to know, Chuck, I will let our S/SS racers (we kick our Association races off there that day) if their chassis cert is close to running out, they can have it done. Mike Carr Tri-State Stock/Stock Association President Retired Stock/bracket racer Facebook/Twitter: buffdaddy1302 | |||

I think all the details are being hammered out with the IHRA inspector and Greg, but as soon as I see who to contact and reserve a spot, and pricing, I'll post up.

Just one thing I'd like to say, not everyone,(including myself) has a face book account. I don't have one, nor do I want one. Can we please keep the PRP site up to date, and not make everyone go to fag book? Also hope we keep the PRP Rain out Texting service, like today - I cant tell you how many times that has saved me a long wasted trip. Most important, keep the shiny side up | |||

Oops I guess I made a Freudian slip there, sorry, yes I meant to say Face book. Your right Eric, if I wanted to get information on your nieces, face book would be the first place I would go also, however when I’m looking for info concerning the race track wouldn’t be convient to be able to go to just one place, to find that info? You could name it something catchy…….. like say Pittsburg Raceway park then post relevant things, like what’s happening and updates maybe who won last weeks race? So I don’t have to stroll through hourly posts about how cute someone’s cat is, what someone is making for dinner, and updates on your nieces? I’m not the only one out there that has this complaint. Most important, keep the shiny side up | |||

Steve, the PRP site was updated at the same time as Facebook and when the text alert went out. I know this for a fact. I'm guessing the PRP site didn't show when you checked it out? If so, hit F5 to refresh the page. I am not extremely technical, but I guess some servers don't update as quick as others, from what I understand. I know the page will be updated this week at least once, as we get closer to opening day, and see what Mother Nature is going to do. I'll copy and paste here too.

Yep... from the PRP site: Racers meeting ONLY this Saturday!! Opening day postponed! 04-03-2014 UPCOMING SCHEDULE: Saturday, April 5 - Racers meeting has been rescheduled for 9:30am, rain or shine! Unfortunately, the toll of the long winter is still being felt at the drag strip. So, the opening day test and tune is delayed until Saturday, April 12th. The racers meeting WILL be held, rain or shine, April 5th, 9:30am!! PRP management and staff apologizes for the delay and inconvenience. We are willing to bet, given how mean and downright sadistic Mother Nature has been to all of us the past year or so, that this Saturday and Sunday end up being picture perfect days, ordered-directly-from-the-Chamber-of-Commerce type sunny, blue skied, get out your sunglasses and sunscreen, with birds chirping happy songs, children behaving and getting along nicely with their siblings, while next weekend she will probably revert to her old self. Please know that we wish nothing more than to open up the center for quarter mile therapy, especially after this brutal winter, and we appreciate your patience and support. Cross your fingers for good weather on April 12! Saturday, April 12 - gates open for test and tune at 11am. Racing starts at noon, and goes until 6pm. $10 for spectators, carload for $25, test and tune $25.

Okay, I guess I'm the one who's going to ask. Why not just open on Sunday? It looks like it's going to be really nice. | |||

It's more than just the weather. Greg's post om PRP Facebook page: Racers and fans, This weekend is cancelled due to a number of reasons. The harsh long last winter has taken a toll on the facility, as well as having an effect on other entities that we work with. After the 2013 season ended, Derry Township and Westmoreland County required that the drag strip hook in to the public sewage system. Winter had an effect on the digging and pipe laying, with the artic temperatures halting work at times, and putting the work behind schedule. There is a lot of dirt and mud around the track, particularly the entrances and staging lanes, from this work. Another issue is the asphalt around the pits and return roads; the winter beat them up also, cracking it, resettling it, with the freeze/thaw cycles. Asphalt plants are just opening up now, and we will need LOTS of asphalt over the next few weeks. Please be patient as we will be working around some pit spots that will be affected due to these issues, but I promise we are working hard to get them completed as soon as we can. No one… NO ONE… wants and needs to open more than me, but it is best to take the time now and get cleaned up as much as we can so we can move forward to give you, my customers, a much better facility and experience than what we would right now, given our current state. I want it to be known that I did not chose to close because of the threat of rain. After last year, and its 18 rainouts, I’m not afraid of a little rain. I actually need this rain to help wash away the dirt and mud. I also want everyone to know that these issues do NOT extend to the actual racing surface. The track itself is fine, and ready for action. I hope to see many of you at the racers meeting this Saturday at 9:30 am (tell/bring a friend!). I will go over the upcoming season, and racers can sign up for points, order fuel, and ask questions. Thank you for your time and support.
