I read it's for the driving schools use only. Nothing was mentioned about being an NHRA track. New or otherwise . Dave F J B | |||

Dave dont be a negative nelly, give them a chance to announce what there plans are. It is something positive in what has been a string of negative announcements. The Indians are not longer running the facility any longer, that in its self is a huge positive | |||
|
| DRR Top Comp |
That in itself is very strange....Did this driving school guy have more money than NHRA? I can't believe this kind of agreement/deal was made in the short time the track was "shut down for good" Maybe the Indians just wanted NHRA/dragracers out so they could lease it to the driving school.... Negative nelly..  ...just asking questions. Dave F J B | |||

Who cares what the reason is, its staying open. Let all just wait and see what they do with the place going forward | |||
|
| DRR Top Comp |
Well....I kinda care....Only to the extent that is it ever going to be a regularly operated dragstrip again? Not being bulldozed doesn't mean it's "staying open" to the public (us) . Dave F J B | |||

My understanding is the dragstrip will remain open because that is one of their schools.  Crew Chief Pro 7.980.

Not trying to be an ass here honest.....Open for school use or open for weekend bracket races is my question... . Dave F J B | |||

Attention Dave. The second paragraph noted. "This strategic partnership ensures that all tracks at the park, including the NHRA sanctioned drag strip will remain open and actively contribute to the growth of Radford Racing. To me that says that all the facilities will function as they have in the past to contribute to Radfords future. Which if run properly it's more money in their pocket. | |||
|
| DRR Top Comp |
I hope you're correct Bob......If they had just said the race tracks will continue as they have in the past I wouldn't be wondering what "actively contribute to the growth of Radford Racing" means exactly.... Why the complete change-over of owners/management if it going to stay the same.... I guess all I/we can do is wait and see.... . Dave F J B | |||

Dave To insure the property is going to continue to be a total racing facility I (Radford Racing) would rather have cars and boats racing and students at my driving school than amazon trucks and trailers parking or houses and apartments next to my livelihood. Just saying | |||

Now that they have reached an agreement hopefully they will clarify and make public their plans soon. https://postimg.cc/gallery/np3zpruo/ "Dunning-Kruger Effect" -a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge. Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue. 4X NE2 CHAMPION. 2020 TDRA NE2 Champion | |||

Dave, speaking of tracks, how has racing been at Barona?? L8R, Mike | |||
|
| DRR Top Comp |
With the parachute I have right now I can't stop there Mike. I did rework the chute mount to get it further out/back from the tires and more at a 45* angle pointed up. Hopefully, it gets up in the wind to hit quicker. I'll see at the Bakersfield race next month. I was hoping to make a few runs at Irwindale but I walked their return road and I don't see my dragster making those turns and dips.. . Dave F J B | |||

One of the employees of Radford is Chuck Sundstrom, who is a former drag strip track manager at Wild Horse. They have Josh Edwards also and if any kind of racing were to be open to the public these two can make it happen. I'm not in a bad mood, I just look that way......... | |||

Dave, hope to see you next month L8R, Mike | |||
|
| DRR Top Comp |
Mike, are you staying out there? If so lets do dinner or something . Dave F J B | |||

Sounds like a great idea. If I come up on Friday I’ll take you to a great steakhouse. It’s a cattle auction but they have a restaurant that’s only open on Fridays from 5-9pm L8R, Mike | |||
