PEOPLE/STRATEGY/TRAVEL NEWS

 

The Strategy

                                                                                        

In the world of trackchasing, we have so many different categories, that a trackchaser can decide to be a specialist in just about any area that suits him or her.  I focus on overall quantity of tracks.  Some have made it their mission to lead in an individual state, while other’s preferences have led them to be leaders in either ovals, road courses or figure 8 tracks.  There seems to be a little bit of recognition for everyone and that is the way it should be.

 

Although Carol has visited all 50 states, her trackchasing state total sits at 45.  I suspect that only a fraction of the American population has been to all 50 states.  We enjoy traveling all over the world for there is a lot to see.  However, there is so much to see in America, that I wouldn’t blame anyone for doing all of their traveling here.

 

There’s going to be a good deal of travel strategy involved in getting Carol her final five states.  There’s probably a reason why these five places remain.  Alaska is a long way away.  We’ve done an Alaskan cruise and been up there on vacation, but we have never been trackchasing on any of our joint visits to the far north.  We’ve been to New Orleans many, many times, but no Louisiana tracks.  There are very few tracks racing in Maryland and Massachusetts.  When Carol goes back there it will likely be to a track I’ve already visited. 

 

Rhode Island might be the toughest state to get.  Back in 1989, my state total stood at 49.  It would be another 10 years before I would finally knock off Rhode Island and become a member of the 50-state club.  You see, Rhode Island has only one racetrack in the entire state.  The track is actually in the owner’s backyard.  Yes, you can see the entire racing facility from any room in his house.  When I was trying to schedule a visit there, I called him about upcoming dates.  He told me, “My wife is pregnant and we may not race for a year or more.”  That’s why it took me 10 years to get to that track.  They must have a large family by now!  I hope it doesn’t take Carol as long to get Rhode Island as it took me.

 

There are some very competitive battles going on in the 2006 season trackchaser standings.  Don’t forget to take a look at how close several positions are.

 

 

The Trip

 

The “12/24” rule came into effect on this trip as it does on most of my airline trackchasing adventures to the Midwest or East.  We left California at 4:45 a.m. (6:45 a.m. Central time) on Friday.  We pulled into the Hutchinson Raceway Park’s parking lot at 6:30 p.m. Central time.  That’s where the “12” comes in.  It usually takes me about 12 hours to get to the first track of the trip.  It took us 11 hours and 45 minutes to get from our driveway to the entrance to the HRP.

 

We left the Enid Motor Speedway at nearly 8 p.m. Central time on Sunday night.  That was too late to catch a flight back to California.  After the Sunday night races were finished, we drove for a couple of hours, got a motel, drove for a couple of hours on Monday morning, caught a flight from Wichita to Dallas and then on to Los Angeles.  After getting our bags and driving home in rush hour traffic, we reached our driveway at 6 p.m. (8 p.m. Central time.)  That’s where the “24” come in.  It normally takes us about 24 hours from the time we leave the last track of the trip until we hit the shores of San Clemente.

 

Gas prices in Oklahoma were the lowest I’ve seen in a very long time.  We paid just $1.98 per gallon there.  When I returned home to San Clemente, the station I use was charging $2.71 per gallon for regular unleaded. 

 

My XM radio is on the blink so we were forced to listen to local radio channels.  This reminded me of why I got XM in the first place.  One radio ad headline got my attention.  The announcer exclaimed, “Who says you have to leave your house to find a job?”  This was an ad for an online job search firm.

 

The People

 

The people I meet up with in trackchasing are almost always very nice.  That would be the case today at the Enid Motor Speedway as well.  The track itself sits in front of the Garfield County Memorial Stadium.  I don’t know for sure but I suspect that many a football game has been played here before the place was converted to a racetrack.

 

The stadium has a huge stone/concrete façade, that you are unlikely to see at most other racing venues.  My research indicates this was a Works Progress Administration (WPA) project from the depression era.

 

When Carol and I arrived at the stadium we were greeted by Cheryl Licklider, who is the auto-racing writer for the Enid News and Eagle daily newspaper in Enid, Oklahoma.  Cheryl welcomed us to the city of Enid and the racetrack.  She could not have been friendlier and her hospitality made us feel right at home.

 

Cheryl arranged for photos to be taken of our visit as well as an at the track interview with the track’s announcer.  I made sure I got a plug in about Carol’s 45^th trackchasing state during my interview.   Cheryl is working on a story about our trackchasing visit and when it is completed, I will add it to the Media Contacts page at www.ranlayracing.com. 

 

Most local tracks don’t get much coverage from their local papers.  That’s probably the track’s fault as much as it is the papers.  Cheryl has covered each one of the 11 Street Stock Nationals events at EMS.  She also covers the track’s racing on a weekly basis.  When she is not writing about auto racing, she teaches at a local high school.

 

 

RACE TRACK STATS:

ENID MOTOR SPEEDWAY, ENID, OKLAHOMA #1,111 – 9/24/06

This was my 13^th lifetime track to see in the Sooner state.  It was also my first trackchasing visit to Oklahoma since last year and the sixth year that I have trackchased in the state.  This is my 34^th state to visit for trackchasing this season.  My state rank improves from fifth place to third.  I am now tied with Gordon Killian and Kevin Eckert.  I’ve gained more lifetime NGD points and trail the leader, unofficially by just 14 positions.  You guessed it; Ed Esser leads the state with 24 tracks.

 

As noted above this was Carol’s first ever trackchasing visit to Oklahoma.  She now has 45 trackchasing states.  The five remaining holdouts are Alaska, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.  Going into this trip, we were not planning on her adding to her state total again in 2006, but then one never knows what the future will hold.

 

 

RACE TRACK NEWS:

 

ENID MOTOR SPEEDWAY

 

Today’s program was a one-division show, street stocks, and the third day of a three-day program.   There were some 90 racecars in the pit area.  I must admit that most of them looked more like late models than street stocks.  That might have had something to do with the fact that today’s feature event paid $10,000 to win.

 

This was our best racing venue of the weekend by far.  In addition, Sunday afternoon is my favorite time of the week to watch short track racing.  The weather was very good and the grandstand was huge.  Even though a crowd of 3,000-4,000 was on hand there was lots of space for us in the middle of the 30-40 row tall grandstands.  During intermission, they played good country music over a P.A. system that was stout.

 

The race program called for seven last chance qualifiers.  Two cars from each of these races transferred to the “B” main.  The “A” main started 24 cars from the preliminary events and last year’s Enid track champion was added as a provisional.

 

Although there was a good deal of rubber laid down on the track, the last chance races were marred by dust problems.  The dust didn’t make its way into the grandstand, but it did obscure our view.  At intermission, they watered the track and that took care of the dust for both of the main events.  By the time the championship race was completed the entire track, from top to bottom, had a black asphalt looking appearance.

 

There were a few other noteworthy items about the speedway.  First, the flagman does his work from a flag stand located on the inside of the track rather than the outside, as is normally the case.  The track announcer even announced part of the “A” main event while standing on the flagman’s perch.  The cars pit inside the track.  Peoria Speedway, the track I cut my teeth on, pitted their cars inside the track.  I like it that way except when the backstretch gets blocked, as it does at Eldora, by today’s huge racecar haulers.

 

I would like to extend my advance condolences to the track worker who works between the flagman and turn one.  I am sad to say that he will be dead soon.  He stands way out on the track and the cars miss him by only a few feet when they pass at speed.  R.I.P., friend.

 

The track also has a fly problem.  We actually encountered our share of these pesky insects throughout the weekend.  The condiments section of the concessions area was a real fly fest.  This made Carol’s Frito pie and my cheeseburger somewhat less appetizing.  Carol told me the woman’s restrooms were smothered in flies.  I don’t see that very often at the tracks I visit (speaking of flies and not women’s restrooms!).

 

Before the “A” main started, each driver was introduced individually to the crowd.  The “Gentleman start your engines” command was given at 6:37 p.m.  The first last chance race of the day took the green at 4 p.m.  It was still light out and warm enough for shorts when the feature started.  We didn’t need to be anywhere anytime soon, so the introductions were welcomed.  Carol picked out a couple of favorites and I kept my eye on drivers who had won the Nationals in the past.

 

There was a good deal of passing in the 25-car field.  I would estimate there were 8-10 different race leaders, which is unusual in today’s follow the leader racing world.  There were also a large number of tire failures.  As an example, on lap 41, the cars running both first and second both went to the “Hot pits” with flat tires.

 

I was listening to the action over the track radio frequency of 462.1125.  They had a good deal of interesting commentary and it made my viewing much more enjoyable.  Although I thought the main event was going to be 50 laps, they kept referring to “Lap 70” over the radio.  It turned out they were referring to the combined total of both green AND yellow flag laps.  When they reached 70 total laps, they would have a five-minute fuel stop.  During this stop, they could do anything they wanted to the racecars except change tires.  There were just 31 green flag laps in the books when the fuel stop was called for at 7:22 p.m.  Almost all of the yellow flag laps were for cars with tire problems. 

 

The crash wall in turns one and two is only about four feet high.  There is no wheel fence with this wall.  One driver rode over the wall ala Cale Yarborough at Daytona.  That was exciting.

 

Carol was actually using her arms to motion her drivers forward in the race.  She almost never does that.  There was a good deal of passing for the lead, and the fast cars who returned to the track following a tire stop passed up through the field constantly.  The race checkered at 7:55 p.m.  The winner had come from the very last row!  This driver won the race last year and became the first person to ever repeat in the 11 year history of this show.

 

 

CAROL’S COMMENTS

Carol’s reaction to seeing racing in her 45^th state: the facility was great, at least it wasn’t one of those tracks that’s kinda stupid.  The yellows got a little out of hand, but overall I liked the racing.  My Frito pie was great; it was like having crackers on top of chili.  The flies in the women’s bathroom were terrible!  Oh my!  They need a bug zapper.  If they had a bug strip, it would fill up in 30 seconds.

WEATHER CONDITIONS

 

Two bank thermometers disagreed as to what the temperature was when we entered Enid.  One said 69 degrees and the other told us it was 80.  I think it was closer to 80 degrees on a sunny day.  The wind was slight and it wasn’t even that cold after the sun went down.  It was a very nice afternoon for some short track auto racing.

RENTAL CAR UPDATE:

 

I am using the National Rental Car Racing Pontiac Gran Prix for this weekend’s trip.  It performed well.

 

Friday total driving miles – 89

Saturday total driving miles – 163

Sunday total driving miles – 288

Monday total driving miles – 66

 

The driving portion of this trip covered just 606 miles.  We stopped for gas once with a final top off.  I paid an average price of just $2.02 per gallon.  The Pontiac Gran Prix gave us 27.4 M.P.G. in fuel mileage at an average cost of 7.4 cents per mile.  The car cost 17.9 cents per mile to rent, all taxes included.
