No Mini Sprints at Napa this Saturday

Posted by djsmith77 on June 10, 2013, 4:42 pm

I have been getting calls concerning the Napa Dirt track races this Saturday, 6/15/13 and if the mini sprints are racing. The answer is "no" the mini sprints will not be racing this Saturday the next race is 6/29/13 at Tularosa. Our schedule is at www.nmminisprints.com

We dont have a problem with Napa or Charlie, we simply do not have a race this weekend. Not sure where you are hearing that we have a problem, in fact I am sure that Charlie would say that we have been as much or more cooperative than anyone else.

The NAPA web says ALL Classes & Sprint Cars
Sorry for the misunderstanding

No problem Truman. The MMNMI/New Mexico Mini Sprints are not a weekly class at Napa. We are listed as New Mexico Mini Sprints on their schedule on the web on the race nights that we are running just as sprint cars are listed. We needed to continue to support Aztec and Tularosa and therefore we are not running at just Napa.

I think it is OK Truman. They were not scheduled to race this weekend anyway and if Denny is getting calls from folks looking to see if they are racing that would be a good sign, wouldn't it? The micro sprints car counts have been pretty consistent at 12-13 cars and that is about all the short track can handle. Personally I think they should run wings always for a better show but I don't have an opinion here as I don't race NAPA.

Howdy Don

Everybody's opinion matters sir, whether you race or not should not matter. It's about producing the best show possible and constructive feedback helps for improvements.
Putting on a good show for folks so they will come back and bring friends with them next time is key.

More cars = better shows = happy fans = track success

That's what we all want so we can keep enjoying racing.

I enjoy watching all the classes run and love the sprints!
Good stuff...

Have a good one!
God Bless Everybody
