YES!! Let's hear about your Lucas Oil Regional Experience. Thanks in advanced.
LORORS
Big time feel and big time show without the big time price.
The Regional’s staff put together a great event. It was well run, the turnout was REALLY good, and the racing was awesome. Great job guys.
More about the staff, these guys put in countless hours putting together this program, a good day at the track for them can probably be measured by how many complaints they receive during an event. No news is good news but bad news is worldwide and usually very angry at the same time. Next race if you’re having fun let them know, they would like and probably need to hear it.
Shout out to Dave Arnold, guy spends all day talking, my old man did play by play sports radio and I’ve always admired guys with the ability to do what they do.
Another great thing about the Regional’s is it’s a great learning tool for those who have never raced before. It teaches racers how to race, how to tech, where to line up, how to set up, how to spot, and even the colors the flags are and what they mean. See, there’s this guy that stands in that tower thingy over the front straight, he has this colored fabric attached to a stick called a flag and he waives different colored ones at different times during a race. Its seems the XP class had the most trouble with the green one and whether they should start and/or pass before or after tower guy waives it, need to work on that one guys.
I had a great time at the So Cal Regional’s. I was really impressed with the turn out. The racing action was great the stands were packed.
Yes, I agree 100%. It looks like the Lucas Oil staff has hit on a successful platform to help grow short course. Regional’s in AZ, CA, Utah, Reno? my hats off but as the program grows but I have to wonder, which Regional class they will cut next year to shorten the program….
