Hey, wanted to let you know what they deal was. It had nothing to do with the rainout, it was just some people whining and trying to throw weight around to get their way. There is a money race next weekend out of state, but they were just trying to get their way and race here at the expense of Hugoton. Thats why I wa sticked, because that would have killed the opportunity of racing at two other tracks and kill any exposure we were getting in othe rtowns and possibly a chance at bringing in some other racers from out of town. Anyways, wanted to let you know what it was all about. I also heard that they are gonna race in Hugoton, so the people complaining must have heard the displeasure about it. Lata
