   If Jason is telling the truth and all of the delays are due to the state politicians then we might as well kiss the National Event goodbye because I surely don’t believe that NHRA will wait that long for something to happen. The whole thing is like a big joke being played on the racers, fans, etc. as it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out all of the positives to the local economy by having a nice and multipurpose facility. But whatever, I will not hold my breathe as should anyone else and thank your local politicians if you choose to do so and happen to pass out.
   Sincerely,

   Our local politicians have been fighting any improvements or expansion at the track for many years by denying permits.
   This includes permits to expand restroom facilities, showers, etc.
   In the 60’s and 70’s, the track was often under attack in the courts in the hopes it would be closed. At one point local racers rallied and helped the track with fund raisers for legal expenses to keep the track open. We prevailed!
   Pacific Raceways certainly needs upgrades, but it has brought the big show to town in Division 6 for many years and is one of the only facilities large enough to host a national event in our division.
