I agree with just about everything that was posted above. Just want to add this. If someone were brand new to racing or moving out of ¼ Midgets in the NJ, Pa, area. You have way too many classes to choose from. Starting with Asphalt, you have TQ’s, Legend cars, Fast Fours, Limited Late Models, Sportsman, and Modifieds. Dirt – Four Cylinders, Street Stocks, News Sprints, East Coast Sprints, 305 Mass Sprints, URC, Road Runners, Crates and Modifieds just in the full-size class. This does not include Enduros, Micro Sprints, Sling Shots, or X-cel Modifieds. On top of any other class, I might have missed. Friday nights were mentioned in one of the posts above. Just an opinion any NJ Track that switches would be committing financial suicide. Between work, family or Friday night traffic you end up with less cars and fans sitting in the stands. More required equipment than back in the 60’s, 70’, and 80’s was not required. Now Transponders, Hans Devices, Fire Suppressions systems, Custom built racing seats, etc depending on the track are required. Cheap tow vehicles and used trailers are rare to find, adding up to additional costs compared to the old days. The vast number of divisions thins the fields out in other classes. To the original poster Speaking about, no A/C, internet, TV, A/C, etc two summers ago. We lost power it went out from one of the storms for over 20 hours. Sleeping at night was brutal after years of sleeping with the A/C. If it was not for the smartphones you forget how much people are spoiled nowadays!
