[QUOTE="wardy, post: 569884, member: 16710"] OH my the great OHV grant system, I think Okie would ban me if I took all his web space and let you know how that thing works., Just so ya know I have been in front of those guys & gals three times, lots LOTS of red tape for that }FREE money. They regulate a bunch of things and restrict the big picture or "long term" for sure. ANyway some of the people there are really cool, others in my mind have an agenda. This was the first year that the "deadline" passed and I didn't even think about it! thats really cool!@ On wapella, I just don't understand, I have the same riders at Mendota, more overhead (course I live in my body shop apartment not a house like that) but a fair living could or can be made>? I have an opinion that "racers don't make good promoters" and yet the also can make the "best promoters" it depends on ones drive and if they truely enjoy the sport. ie: jean ramsey. I am sure there are a ton of issues there, and if I didn't own FVOR now, you likely would see me at Wapella running races. I liked the area, the track, and the people. But now that I have the park its not an option, hell the wife would kill me, but I really hope that this summer someone trys to make that place go, it can make it no question in my mind. Grant money for it will not work, it is not what they are looking for, course they want 500 acres outside chicago and that won't happen either. they don't like parks our size, and they have walked it and been to it in 2001. Anyway i wouldn't discourage people from trying to do the grant deal, but you have to finance it up front then they pay you back, thats tuff enough, then price caps are making it hard for current places now to exsist. One thing, 28 parks & tracks last week lost their insurance for 2003, ALL of us are now scrambling again to find coverage.................you don't even want to know figures, but safe to say it could at this point almost take half a season to pay for it.......................wonder why i get anal when a guy is wheeling through the pits with no helmet!!!!!!!!!! wardy [/QUOTE]
