WHAT A HOOT...
AN OPPORTUNITY IN LAS VEGAS TO COVER THE TWO BEST PROMOTED EVENTS IN THE WORLD ON BACK TO BACK WEEKENDS....THE PBR AND NASCAR.
THIS THE NORTH LAS VEGAS 3/8 MILE ASPHALT TRACK ON THE NORTH STRIP NEXT TO LAS VEGAS MOTOR SPEEDWAY.
FOLLOWING ARE RANDOM THOUGHTS AND REACTIONS TO THIS EVENT.....
IT WAS HOMETOWN HEROES NIGHT PRESENTED BY K&N FILTERS....HONORING LAS VEGAS POLICE OFFICERS.......EACH OF THE 8 RACES HAD AN OFFICER DROP THE GREEN FLAG TO START THE RACE......STARTED ON TIME WITH 17 POLICE VECHILES FLASHING THEIR LIGHTS....5 BAGPIPES...COLOR GUARD....APPROPRIATE PRAYER...NATIONAL ANTHEM ON A GORGEOUS NIGHT...."GOOD BLESS AMERICA" SANG LIVE BEFORE THE MAIN EVENT.......I WAS READY TO ENLIST....THANKS TO ALL OUR POLICE OFFICERS FOR KEEPING US SAFE.
GREAT TIGHT PROGRAM...RAN IT IN TWO AND A HALF HOURS....THEY INTERVIEW ALL THE WINNERS ON THE TRACK.......LIKE NASCAR THEY SAY THE RIGHT THINGS AND NOTE THEIR SPONSERS AND FAMILIES.....AN EXCEPTIONAL CLASS OF PEOPLE HERE ON THE TRACK ...IN THE PITS AND IN THE STANDS.
LOVELY TO SEE OUR NAME TAGS IN THE PRESS BOX....THEY EVEN WASHED THE WINDOWS OF THE PRESS BOX......THIS MAY NOT MEAN A LOT.....BUT IT ILLUSTRATES THE SUPER MANAGEMENT AND CONCERN OF THE RACEWAY TEAM TO DO THE RIGHT THINGS IN FAN FRIENDLY MANAGEMENT.
THEY RACE AGAIN 13 JUNE AT THE BULLRING......702 644 4444 LVMS.COM..............HIGHLY RECOMMENDED...
LOTS OF THE POINTS LEADERS WON RACES ON THIS NIGHT...BANDOLERO BANDITS..R J SMOTHERMAN..............BANDOLERO OUTLAWS....KYLE JACKS AND THUNDER CAR FEATURE ....IAN ANDERSON.
WE HAD LOTS OF FUN RUNNING LAP TIMES ON OUR HAND HELD COMMUTER DEVICES AND WERE SURPRISED TO SEE 85MPH PLUS ON THIS SHORT TRACK AND LEARN THAT THE USAC MIDGETS RAN UNDER 16 SECONDS AND THAT THE LATE MODELS WERE ONLY SLIGHTLY FASTER ON LAP TIMES.....
GREAT FOUR PAGE PROGRAM WITH EVERYTHING WE NEEDED TO KNOW AND THE SCORE BOARD KEEPS THE LEADERS AND LAP LOG...EASY TO FOLLOW.
FULL MOON AT THE BULLRING ON THIS NIGHT....COULD CATCH A SIMILAR SKY ON THE JULY 3 FIREWORKS RACING DATE.
LOST SOME GOOD CARS ON AN EARLY CRASH IN THE SUPER LATE MODEL FEATURE WHERE SCOTT GAFFORINI DOMINATED .......HE LOOKED LIKE A JIMMY JOHNSON TYPE......OVERPOWEING CAR....JUST WAY BETTER THAN THE REST.....IMPRESSED HERE TOO WITH THE DRIVER SKILL.
SIMPLY A WONDERFUL NIGHT AMID MAGNIFICENT MANAGEMENT AND GREAT EVENT ORGANIZATION.....YOU COULD GO JUST FOR THE AURA....
