It's not blowing right now.
John, check out this web address. It is centered right on the track in Victorville.

Thank you all for the updates and responses! I am still trying to put together a roster for this Saturday night's Sprint Car Summer Spectacular Open Show.

59 - David Cardey

69 - Randy Waitman

Hopefuls (based mostly on past entries at VRP & PAS in 2011, plus a few that have told me they want to be there, but are still waiting to get the cars back together):
09 – Luis Espinoza
2t - David Morini
7 - Bruce St. James

75 - Wiley Miller
75x - Bill Badger
88 – Jace VanDerWeerd
91t - Brandon Thomson (wants to be there...anyone want to sponsor his efforts?)
Know anything? Do I have something wrong? Please let me know...thanks again!
P.S. It is always windy on the forecast for Victorville...and the forecast is usually correct. However, the last 3 races we've had there, we had heavy winds early that died down later in the evening. The track crew was all over it, and kept watering and working the track. We didn't have any dust, and kept 3 grooves all night each time! The weather has been nice until curfew, which is 10:00 PM, so bring a sweatshirt and you should be good. By the way, we have been running 5 or 6 divisions per week, each with heat races and main events...some classes with semi's...and we're always done by curfew!
P.P.S. If you have any questions about the purse, entry, pit passes, or anything, please bring them up! Make it public knowledge so that everyone can be informed. Or, if you have a private concern or request, send me a personal message or hit me up on Facebook. If anyone is staying home because they're afraid to tow without knowing the answers to something, please don't hesitate to ask. I will personally try to get you guys any answers you need as soon as possible. I know how frustrating it can be to be unsure before committing to the trip & all the expense. And don't forget that the purse is paid CASH at the track immediately after scoring is complete!
C-ya there...

I copied this from the original post:
Victorville Raceway Park would like to Thank all the Sprint Cars Teams that Pre-Entered for the June 11th "Summer Sprint Car" Spectacular! Your response was overwhelming. We would also like to Thank all the Teams that returned the Purse Structure survey they would rather Race for. Purse #2 was unanimous!!!!! For this event it will be Purse #2 $1,500 to Win, good meat in the middle, and $150 to start. This event is still open to all 410 and 360's that want to show up and Race. $200 Bonus to Top Placing 360 So the Top Placing 360 would receive a minimum of $350 or more. (A Pre-Entry e mail would be nice so we know what to expect). Any Race Teams that would like to receive the Purse structure, just send us a e-mail to [email protected] and we will send you the Purse. Please put Car #.......Driver......City.....410 or 360...(Please only Race Teams). With Most Tracks not running Sprints on June 11th, we are looking forward to the Biggest Sprint Car car count Victorville has ever seen...........Should be a Fun Night, and Sprint Car main will be run before the supporting classes.

The following is the purse to be paid in CASH this Saturday night for the VRP Summer Spectacular Open Sprint Car race:
1st........ $1,500
2nd.........$ 700
3rd.........$ 500
4th..........$ 350
5th..........$ 300
6th..........$ 250
7th..........$ 200
8th..........$ 175
9th..........$ 150
10th through 20th....$ 150
Plus, $200 Bonus to top finishing 360

Instead of qualifying, we usually pill draw and run heat races...number of heats to be determined by car count. I will edit this post if that is incorrect.
