| Hey everyone, I have watched many races @ AVS and I think Bern needs to put a little more effort into his product. I have noticed a complete lack of organisation in the pits when it comes to race lineups. There should be a pre-determined plan for lineups depending on how many cars show (starting position determined by ranking) Have plans pre done if 6 cars show or 20 then all you have to do is rank them. I have also noticed car line ups seem random ? They say it's based on ranking but obviously this has fallen to the wayside and someone is randomly assigning pole positions. Rules NEED to be enforced, before every race cars should have to drive a small distance and hit the brakes to ensure they work and in light of the recent rollovers I think it's time to get serious about roll cages, they need to be checked. Perhaps Bern you should have a meeting with the drivers to get some feedback and try to improve the racing. I see huge potential for the track but it will require some effort on the organizers parts. Good Luck Sunday to all drivers.

| It will take a bit of effort and commitment on the part of the owner and all the speedway officials, but the payoff in the long run would be well worth it!

| I agree with the needed organization and committment to the track but it also could use some much needed renovations. The washrooms usually don't have soap or paper towels and the steps leading up to the washrooms are so rotted its only a matter of time before someone goes through them and gets hurt. The seats are not the safest either. Some of them lean forward like your going to fall out and some of the armrests have screws sticking out of them and very sharp. We always have to check the seats before we let the kids sit in them.

| We are assigned Starting positions each week base on the results from the previous weeks. The Starting lineup is listed in the Newsletter we receive each week. The higher your points and money won average the further you start towards the rear. If you look at the Newsletter (Mini Stock) for June 14 you will see car 116 is in 1st place and has a points average of 40 and a money won average of $93.00. The Car with hi average always starts last in the Heat race and the Feature.
The Lady in pit lists the starting lineup on the Pit Board before each race. If you got a question just ask her?

| As for the comments about the washrooms, the washrooms are cleaned every week and stocked with supplies. I should know this because I am the one WHO DOES IT. Maybe that fan could have notified me when the bathrooms ran out of paper towels etc, instead of complaining or maybe they are more comfortable at a venue that has portapotties. Thank You

| Forget about hourly inspections of the washrooms at the track, we need minutely inspections of the washrooms at Burger King where I live! The washrooms there are brutal! I think the inspections there are an annual event!

| why is it that whatever comment that is made in any topic on this site has to be topped by something that happens in hicksville ontario. we don't care what happens in hicksville ontario in the washrooms at burger king tim hortons or at any other establishment there. we dont care what happens at the most wickedest race track in the world there in hicksville ontario. we in avondale, newfoundland. if ya cant comment on what we are doing, dont comment at all, didnt your mother teach you anything at all when you were growing up other than to have a big mouth.

| Okay, I've now heard it all! Somebody from Nfld calling Ontario "hicksville"! That's a good one! When I read that, I almost fell out of my chair laughing! That has got to be the worst case of the pot calling the kettle black in the history of mankind!

| I agree with the comments regarding improvements. I really enjoy going to the races with my children, however this year so far i am not happy with the organizational structure of the whole event.....I understand if there is an accident on the raceway everything gets pushed back, however when the races are supposed to start at 2 and don't start until 2:30 like it did sunday pass, then a 15 min intermission turns in to 30 min, then having one man operating the tow truck and operation the flags/line-ups are a bit much and more time consuming, I just think everything needs to be kept on schedule for a lot of fans to keep returning to this even.
The comment regarding the stands/chairs, i agree with as well. Myself, my husband and two children has to pay 20.00 to get in to this event (its not a lot of money i know) they should do something with the money they make to insure the safety of the fans, with out the fans they wouldn't have this event......

| honestly i think maybe hiring a few more mantanice,track staff would be nice so you can have one guy pickin up garabge and another drivin the tow truck, or instead just movin the tow truck in the pits closer to the staff?
but tracks ok now i dont mind waittin a few extra mins to watch a race though as long as its good racing

| I agree with the complaints that included the washrooms. Gloria, you may have cleaned them in the morning but 5 hours later (or more as the 15 minute intermission seems to turn into 30 minutes or more) these washrooms are pretty scuzzy! One roll of paper ain't going to cut it.
