i always thought Quaker City was a nicer facility, but PRP is just a little bit faster. so it’ll be good now, a nice, fast track. ---

Track preparation has been quite good there also. I’m not sure when you went, But I spent every Saturday there last year and my only complaint is I didn’t go over more on Friday nights. ---

People got pissed when they came up and the score boards did not work, or the timing equipment was off. People got annoyed/offended when the announcer treated the race like a joke. Sure there were some slower cars there, but there was some very fast ones too. I am fine if they don’t run import night anymore because the majority of the time it never happened. I had two “rain out” slips from the 2005 season. Granted we did have some bad weather, but there were a few situations when the track was not wet and it cleared up. ---

PRP is ran horrible IMO, they defiantly treated the import guys like assholes. I honestly hate the place, the timing system was always messed up, we go there to see times and cars race and all you get to see is cars race without any times and the announcer that talks during the burnout so you cant hear any of the times. Its basically the only track around here… so yes I will continue to go there… because I really have no choice in the matter. Honestly… how can you quit import night… the import scene is just as big if not bigger than the domestic scene… thats like turning 1/2 of your customers away. ---

Just me tho… Ya i enjoyed it to. I liked seeing curt browns evo and talons and the 13 second beetles. I deffinetly agree about how its run. They need to hire more bodies because we could easily get more runs in if it was just organized better. but with all the stuff that went on the turn outs got worse and worse.partly is there fault i deffinetly agree.what you all should do is email them. Frank who is who is 1 of the owners usually responds within a few days. Iv emailed him before about other things. Maybe if enough people email them they might make a spot for import nights again, who knows:dunno:. But I do wonder if it has to do with sponsership. because i no langston did it for a little while and so did slow boy ---

Sucks they dont have import night, but every time i was at the track they never had any timing problems. The ET boards at the end of the track were down for a few weeks but not a big deal to me, i got my slips still. Just my luck i guess… i never had any problems there really except ppl blowing up their cars and spraying oil everywhere causing an early end to the night. that was once this year And i think the import scene is alot smaller than domestics. there are FAR more V8 cars up at the track on a given night than 6 and 4 cylinders. not that i dont like imports and smaller motors cuz i really do, its just what i’ve seen so far [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/prp-is-moving-up-in-the-world/194866.md?page=2)
