HPR is a dream come true for all of us. We each have an opinion and hope that it is heard.
With that as a new racer in the MRA, I'd like to ask all of you how much losing other tracks would cost us all in the end because we choose to only race at HPR?
I understand the point of view that HPR is a club track and needs to be supported. However, the MRA is not just a one track organization. Most racers I know of would prefer to race on a variety of tracks throughout a season.
MRA is an organization of racers. HPR is a racing facility that is used by our organization of racers. If we sell ourselves to one track, we will kick ourselves in our own asses in due time.
Pueblo is not my first option for a race. And Hastings is a heck of a long way on my serious budget. However, Pueblo and Hastings have been incredible, WONDERFUL, and over-extending to our organization. We need to keep these tracks alive and see if they can work with our budget. After all, isnt even Pueblo cheaper than running at HPR? If cost is a factor, was this reviewed as a group?
In addition, if PPIR is so expensive, why not race there once and cut an HPR race? Advantage to this, would be we could still be at a track that most racers would prefer. PPIR is very much sought after this season for a group of us.
The next meeting really needs to have as many racers show up and voice their opinions on this.
