i dont mean to be mr. negative, but so far in my opinion the only thing that has happend is, nothing! a little poll is the most he has done with enid so far. i dont know if he is backing out or just stalling untill winter nationals. either way each week that goes by without racing is hurting it more than helping it.

How can it hurt racing in Enid more when there isn't even racing in Enid to begin with?
I know he posted last week he was going to take a trip down to the track sometime this week and check out what is going on and what needs to be done.
Easier for me to day because I don't live or race there but give him time and I am sure he will post what his game plan is.

He had a death in the family. 'Ed I am sorry to hear about that' but from what I was told he is going to try and have the first race July 17th and possibly have some Monster trucks there aswell. Give him a little time we will have races in Enid soon.

people sell out that cant travel ,give up that dont want to travel ,find other hobbies or tracks, and i cant see that being good for the racing at enid, because when(or if) the track re-opens there are less cars. you better understand what i mean? dont get me wrong i hope he has some big giant plan to turn it around and im sure i will continue to support it, just saying im not holding my breath.

I understand what your saying...
I know of several that have already sold thier stuff because it wasnt in thier budget to travel and/or decided fishing was more relaxing! The longer Enid goes without racing the harder it will be to revive this track. I wish them the best but also will not hold my breath either! It was already an uphill battle with how the previous promoters/lease holders have ran it in the ground!!!
Again, my best wishes to anyone who can actually revive this awesome racing facility!!!!

This is why Enid is having so much trouble in the past, there is way to much negativity. Ed I'm sorry to hear the sad news, let me know if you need anything.

by no means was I being negative, Im just being realistic. The longer it goes, without racing, the worse it will be with cars actually showing to race. You can bet that I for one hope to see Enid back to where it once was not so long ago.
I'm very sympathetic to the new promoter and sorry to hear about a family member passing. We will keep him and his family in our prayers.

Hey guys I am just as worried about this year as you are....promise.
But it is my money on the line, and I gotta be sure we can get a crowd........not JUST old race fans but people that we might make em race fans. Putting together and multi motorsports event with RACING and hopefully we can show peope who either have not been to the track in years or new people what racing is all about and then follow that event with some more good stuff called DIRT TRACK RACING!
I am planning on holding a meeting on June 30th in Enid to go over some stuff like this and other ideas and concerns that you have shown to me on this forum and emails and calls. I appreciate everyone of them.
I have a two days of racing this weekend Dodge on Saturday night and Liberal on Sunday night.
Hopefully someone can come forward with a place to have this meeting on Wednesday and we can go forward.
