Port Rotal put down new clay again this year, but with the weather being very changeable as well as very unpredictable and the track crew trying to get a handle on the changes, the new surface at Port has been very different almost every week so far. So my question is:

With Saturday predicted to be partly sunny and high 70's what type of racing surface willl we have this weekend? :dontknow:

Has there been a problem that I haven't heard about? I thought the crew nailed it as close as you could get Sat. night.

Not sure what you are trying to say......I think the weather has given all the tracks a little bit of a challenge so far this season, not just Port. And, I haven't heard anyone really complaining about Port's surface. It's dirt track racing and weather will always have an influence on conditions.

If this is just another attempt at trying to drive wedges between the track owners, promoters, drivers, owners and teams based on when and where they race - TAKE A HIKE!
It's getting old and frustrating..............

As for track food - if you let track food dictate where you go to WATCH RACING - then you are a food fan - not a race fan.

I think the surface at Port has been outstanding so far this year.

It'll probably get slicked off but smooth as will most likely all the other area tracks Saturday.

What are you talking about...........I just asked what some thought we might see this week for a racing surface. Just a simple question. I didn't need the smart a$$ answers or people turning it into an attack on anyone...........What the hell is a the matter with you people????

Food has nothing to do with where we choose to race. Why would it........ :thinking:

For the record before this gets turned into some big stink............I think the track is doing a great job!!! :clap:

How much free time do you have today Dave? Explaining that might take awhile. ;)
