Ok I just want to clear up something I had four sweepers out on the track at different places at different times mudd ox Matt mudd ox nick Mike and Bill Gerber an Brad Smith and they where all sweeping for me if someone got hurt or broke on the trail and needed help getting out of the way that's what there for 2 years ago I had asked Tom and Athena to do the same thing for me last fall I had asked the Gerbers to do it and myself the all know to stay out of the racers way. I didn't have one racer come out and tell me they lost because a sweeper was in the way. That picture of Dave passing matt,Matt wasn't moving he let the racer go around him.

We were all disappointed that the track was far from ready and at least Dave, Brad, the Buffalo crew and others put something together quickly. and for the fun of it . Im sure the drivers that competed could of cared less if there was a non competitive vehicle on the course. The Hare Scramble in its this weekend should not be compared with past events. Face it this was a small crowd of enthusiasts that came out to support and hang with like minded folks. We were not happy that the track was not ready but we came anyway. As far as supporting and giving credibility to racing it will happen at the NEEDT level.

Hey, that was a blast, let's just leave it at that. I don't think anybody is so serious about this event that they worry about a few seconds' time it takes if the sweepers can't get off the track immediately. It's all for fun (and it is!).
Whoever the young lady was that put me in the weeds at the beginning of the hare scramble should really consider entering the NEEDT events. She has the skills and the attitude. Good racing!Last edited by Don; 06-21-2017, 12:12 AM.Stuck in the seventies- not in the swamp.

Anything that happens before or after is just waiting."

Thanks to everyone who put on the event.Originally posted by Model Citizen View PostOMG So they were on the track with a machine as a spectator?Never heard of spectators allowed on a track with a machine of any kind in ANY venue. My how racing has changed.
Are quads letting spectators on the track with their quads now?
No wonder people might be reluctant to take 6 wheel racing seriously.

Do you have a clue how much time and money it takes to travel from Arizona to Ashtabula. How many times have you ever driven to Arizona just for the weekend. Wake up and realize that if they didn't work their buts off and put up a lot of their own money chances are you wouldn't be able to go racing.
