THE CLASSIC TRACKCHASER REPORT

 

Editor’s note: This is a CLASSIC Trackchaser Report. What the heck does “Classic” mean? It’s simply a Trackchaser Report that comes from my trackchasing archives. Typically these will be stories from tracks I visited five years or ten years or more ago.

 

For whatever reason (usually not enough time) it didn’t get posted to my website when I first made the track visit. Often a classic TR will not have a video and/or photo album attached. I didn’t begin producing my YouTube videos until 2009 (YouTube channel: RANLAY). I didn’t begin writing a complete Trackchaser Report until I had seen about 425 tracks. Photo albums were sort of hit or miss during the early years of my trackchasing. Additionally, if you see a website link know that link worked when the TR was originally written. Will it work now? Your guess is as good as mine! Nevertheless, this CLASSIC Trackchaser Report has finally bubbled to the surface and is now available for everyone to see at www.randylewis.org. I hope you enjoy it.

I AM A TRACKCHASER.

My name is Randy Lewis (ice racing is a big part of my trackchasing during the winter). I hail from the sleepy little village by the sea, San Clemente, California. I am a “trackchaser”. I trackchase. Have you ever in your life heard of “trackchasing”? I didn’t think so. 

    

Today’s adventure was one more of the 2,000 trips that have taken me up, down and around the proverbial long and dusty trackchasing trail.  If you would like to see where I’ve been and experience those adventures here’s the link:

If you’ve got a question, comment or whatever please leave it at the bottom of this report.  It’s very easy to do.  Or you can visit me on Facebook.  Thanks!

FOREWORD

 

Sunday, June 24, 2007.

Greetings from first Newton, Iowa and then Butler, Missouri (Sunday) and finally Peoria, Illinois (Monday)

 

Editor’s note: This is a Trackchaser Report about our visit to the Butler Motor Speedway in Missouri. Earlier in the afternoon, we went to the races at the Iowa Speedway. The next day we stopped for another race event at my boyhood track, the Peoria Speedway.

 

We woke up in Webster City, Iowa this morning. We went to sleep in Kansas City, Kansas. This is what transpired today.

 

PEOPLE/STRATEGY/TRAVEL NEWS

The Strategy     

Wouldn’t everyone’s life strategy be to get maximum results with minimal effort?  It’s the classic “work smarter, not harder.”  This is the strategy that motivated me to develop both a right-handed AND left-handed forehand shot in tennis.  I could get to more balls and run less!

 

I try to practice this life strategy not just in trackchasing but anywhere and everywhere that I can.  Today, I will give you two examples of how the “work smarter, not harder” theory was applied in my everyday trackchasing life.

Today was the first-ever Indy car race at the Iowa Speedway.  To Iowans, it was a big deal.  All of the good seats had been sold long ago.  We didn’t have any tickets for the event when we pulled into the back of a long traffic line several miles from the speedway.  The traffic was bad.  We would do well to get to the track by the time the green flag dropped at 12:15 p.m.

How would we get tickets?  What would we do?  I simply pulled out my “need two” ticket sign from my briefcase.  Carol quickly chewed a piece of gum.  We used the gum to stick the sign to the driver’s side window.  In less than five minutes, a woman was waving two tickets out the window of a black Cadillac Escalade. 

 

When the traffic slowed to a stop, the driver got out of the car and walked back to my car.  His tickets were in the upper level just at the entrance to pit road.  He wanted face value ($75) for the tickets.  That seemed fair given the existing traffic circumstances.  I gladly dug into my pocket for $150 cash.  We didn’t even have to get out of our car for premium tickets at face value to the biggest event ever held at the Iowa Speedway.  I’m telling you, it’s all about systems!

 

We were in four lanes of traffic crawling toward the rain-soaked grass parking lots of the Iowa Speedway.  These four lanes narrowed down to just one lane headed into the main parking lot.  They allowed about 20 cars from one lane and then another of the four to move forward at one time.  At this rate, it was going to take forever to get in.  The race would not be delayed for the late-arriving crowd because of their commitment to starting on time for the TV audience.

 

As I looked in my rearview mirror, the traffic was backed up for as far as I could see.  The traffic backup was probably more than three miles.  There were going to be a large number of people who were going to miss a big part of this race.

There were just 20 minutes before the green flag would fly.  What would we do?  How would we get into the track in time for the start of the race?  My theory regarding parking spaces is there “is always room for one more at the inn.”  Yes, I guess that comes from my Bible reading.  I was able to perfect my parking strategies as the Eldora Speedway during several World 100 events.    It’s an easier theory to implement when I’m not driving my own car!

 

I quickly nudged my way into a spot just wide enough for the Dollar Rental Car Racing Dodge Charger.  Carol and I snuck past a security guard who was about ready to arrest a guy who had tried a similar but less stealth move.  We put it into Olympic walking mode.  I’m glad Carol goes to aerobics 5-6 times a week.  She can easily keep up.

We arrived in our seats just seven minutes before the race started.  We would have missed the first 50 laps had we not been assertive with our parking arrangement.  The fellow I bought my tickets from showed up a little later than we did.  He said, “I saw that spot you parked in.  I thought about taking it myself.  Good move!”

So…..what have we learned from all of this?  First of all, no one looks out for your own well-being more than you do.  Secondly, it’s better to have a good system than a good shovel.  Finally, it’s important to abide by all rules and regulations.  Therefore, when you win you will have the inner self-satisfaction of a problem well solved.  Yes, these are pearls of wisdom.  Be smart enough to bend over and pick them up.

 

The Trip

Following the afternoon race, Carol did most of the driving down to Missouri.  I spent the time on cell phone arranging standby flights for Carol.  She’ll be flying back to San Clemente from Kansas City on Monday.  The flight availability looks good.  I’ll stay out on the road a little longer.

 

The People

Yes!  Trackchasing’s First Mother aka, wife Carol frequently comments on her experiences at the races. This is what she had to say today.

CAROL’S COMMENTS (above with Ukrainian trackchasing friends)

The Iowa Speedway was a gorgeous facility with three countable tracks at one location.  Editor’s note:  She’s always thinking ahead!  The legroom in the grandstands was outstanding.  The bathrooms were beautiful.  They even had a lady in the bathroom pointing out which stalls were available!  I liked the Indy cars because they go fast and they’re somewhat delicate.  They remind me of sprint cars.  I thought I would be fried in the sun, but it was quite pleasant under the overcast skies.  I wasn’t too happy when the track security staff took my little umbrella away upon entering.  At least I got it back on the way out of the track.  It’s always entertaining watching my husband maneuver us in and around the world’s obstacles. 

STATE RANKINGS

The Iowa Speedway was Carol’s sixth new track to see in the Hawkeye state.  This was not a new track for me.  I was here just last year for the speedway’s inaugural race on September 15, 2006.  Carol is now tied for 30^th place in Iowa with Steve Kinser among others.

 

The evening portion of our trackchasing day yielded my 34^th lifetime Show Me state track.  This moves me into a tie for fourth place with Roger Ferrell of Majenica, Indiana.  The track improves my lifetime NGD score by one more position.  That gives me a net gain of two positions so far on this trip.

The Butler Motor Speedway was Carol’s sixth Missouri track.  She is now tied with trackchasing luminaries Pappy Hough and John Osowski, among others, for 26^th place.

RACE REVIEW

Indy car racing today is not the Indy car racing of your father’s era.  That’s too bad.  They started just 19 cars today on a nearly one-mile oval.  They rarely passed.  When they did they usually crashed.  There were 69 yellow flag caution laps today out of the races total of 250 laps.  Only ten cars finished.

 

I went to the inaugural race more than 10 years ago at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.  The IRL was racing that day in front of a capacity crowd of approximately 75,000 people.  It took us three hours to go 12 miles to get to the track.  Based on the quality of that race as well as the traffic problems, only 10,000 people showed up for the IRL race the next year.  That must show how well the fans liked the IRL.  The IRL no longer races at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

 

I doubt the same fate will be in store for the Indy cars at the Iowa Speedway.  The racing wasn’t much better, but I suspect Iowans don’t have as many entertainment options as the people in and around Las Vegas.  They will likely remain more loyal to the track, even if that means going to a somewhat boring follow the leader style of racing as we saw today.

The Iowa Speedway itself is spectacular except for the traffic management and parking areas.  When I was here last September the grassy parking lots were bordering on being a quagmire.  Today, after hard rains during the past couple of days, I suspect they were terrible. We parked on an access road and avoided those grass lots.

 

I’d come back for a NASCAR Busch race.  I’ll definitely come back for their road course and small oval racing.  That won’t be because I like that type of racing.  It will be because I am a trackchaser.  I’ve learned to check my entertainment preferences at the door when I go trackchasing.

 

RACE TRACK STATS:

IOWA SPEEDWAY – CAROL’S TRACK #324

Track details

 

Website:  http://www.iowaspeedway.com/

 

Weather:  The forecast called for a high temperature of 85 degrees.  We were pleased that the weather stayed heavily overcast with a temperature of just 73 degrees.

 

Track type:  oval

 

Surface:  Asphalt

 

Length:  7/8- mile

 

Grandstands:  The place seats about 50,000 folks now.  Just about every seat in the tall aluminum grandstands is a good one.

 

P.A.:  Solid.  We could hear the track’s announcer very well.

 

Announcer:  Professional and knowledgeable.

 

On time:  They started about 10 minutes later than the advertised start time of 12:15 p.m.  I wish I could get a copy of Monday’s Des Moines paper.  They are going to roast the track for its inability to get fans into the track for the start of the race.  The track was lucky there was a wreck on the first lap.  Had there not been a caution, as many as 100 laps would have been completed before all the fans would have reached their seats.

 

Pit area:  Located the infield of the track.  Pit road was easy to see from everywhere.

 

Classes:  Indy Racing League – 19 starters, only ten finished.

 

Radio Frequency:  Don’t know my race scanner battery went dead because I left it on overnight  L

 

Concessions:  We ate at McDonalds for fear of being stuck in long food lines at the track.  As it was, since so many people were still out in traffic, there were no lines at the food booths.

 

Scoreboard:  Yes

 

Extras:  The track ran several ads over the P.A. including ads for the Knoxville Raceway and the I-35 Speedway in Mason City.  I was surprised that a track of this size ran a 50/50 contest.  I can’t imagine there being a 50/50 contest at the Daytona 500!

 

BUTLER MOTER SPEEDWAY – TRACK #1,214 (CAROL’S #325)

Length:  3/8- mile

Grandstands:  12 row aluminum bleacher grandstand,

 

P.A.:  Very loud.

 

Announcer:  Enthusiastic and knowledgeable.

 

On time:  Started on time at 7:30 p.m. and went to intermission by 8:10 p.m.  The entire three-class show was finished by 10:15 p.m.  This is how a racing program should be run.

 

Pit area:  Located behind the front stretch grandstand

 

Classes:  Hobby stocks – 18 (looked more like mini-stocks), Street stocks – 8, USMTS Modifieds – 47.

 

Radio Frequency:  469.500 – this is the USMTS frequency

 

Concessions:  Budweiser 12 oz. – $2.25, Diet Coke 32 oz – $2.00

 

Scoreboard:  No

Extras:  The restrooms were in above average condition. One of the best!  The announcer gave me a complete trackchaser mention.

RENTAL CAR UPDATE

 

Chicago – Thursday-Tuesday

The Dollar Rental Car Racing Dodge Charger has one minor little feature I like.  You simply need to tap the turn signal lightly and it will emit 3-4 “blinks” to signal a lane change.  Carol’s view of the Dodge Charger?  “It’s basic, but it does the job.”  I guess Dodge won’t be having her be their spokesperson anytime soon.

 

I paid an average price of $2.96 per gallon.  The Pontiac Grand Prix gave me 27.9 M.P.G. in fuel mileage at a cost of 10.6 cents per mile.  The car cost 37.4 cents per mile to rent, all taxes included. 

 

Thanks for reading about my trackchasing,

Randy Lewis
