USAC Racing Forum

I think all quarter midget families need to keep the Buckeye club in our thoughts and prayers, because there are alot of great people doing great things for that club. After talking to different people, not alot know how a hand full of of members are trying to take their club elseware. I believe if you have a different vision for a club and you are in the minority, go make your vision come together on your own with funding that you provide. Noboby need to to steal a club that several families over 50 years have built. To the Buckeye board and members, keep up the GREAT work you do, inorder for our families to do something we love. THANK YOU!!

I don't think i said anything about USAC in my post but that shows how your group thinks. Your club voted to have duel charter, if you don't agree with USAC don't participate with any of those events but no it's QMA only. I believe it's personal towards CMS and MONEY. There are two new clubs that have started, one QMA and one USAC. They went out on their own and started from scratch, maybe you need to take notes of how it's done. We know the joke!!   

O wise one maybe you could just prove to all us how many times all these clubs DID vote! Come on tell us, give us the details. Better back it up with club minutes and facts not rumors and lies.

Phil, one thing you will learn from deco45 is talk with no proof. We have heard about tracks, votes, large followings to their new club. The post you replied to, does that seem like a track spokesman to you. 

??????????? Huh?

phil I'm with you.Do tell, do tell how many times did the buckeye club vote for USAC deco45? I'm very curious to see.

Not 100% about BUCKEYE,but i will find out for you CHUCK

please do we all would love to see those meeting minutes.What other one could you be talking about?Toledo,mini-indy.I have the real proof for the buckeye club.

hope the buckeye club can vote usac tonight and have some good fun racin'. keep the club together!!!!!!!!!

Wow SSSSMOKE you must know more than the Buckeye members.  I talked to a member of Buckeye and they said they have not been told of any plans to vote for USAC tonight at the meeting.  The only voting that is suppose to be tonight is deciding if the last regional race will be a QMA regional race.  Please tell us more ........

ok, im pretty sure the last regional race is going to be a QMA regional race. you hit that one on the head! more?

ok race4qm,here is more, the last INDOOR race is not going to be qma. more?

hey ssssmoke did you get your info from a reliable source about the last indoor not being qma regional  is it going to usac?

Per the clubs vote 2/4/09, the last indoor race will NOT be a Regional race.

It is very upsetting to me to see how much QMA has changed in the last 4 years and how personal agendas have split up friends, clubs and regions.  This sport is supposed to be about the kids and its sad when people dread going to the track and do not have fun anymore because of all the BS.

With region 4 being a 4 track, potentially 4 race series in 2009, I don’t see that this will impact the series as much as other changes that have taken place in region 4 over the last few months.  The positive thing to keep in mind is that ALL Quarter midget racers will be able to race the last indoor race regardless of their affiliation with either organization, even if they don’t belong to either.
 
Also, Non-QMA members will not have to spend $115+ to race the last race.


We need Change and my personal quote below says it all!!!

"Change is inevitable, we have been changing since the day we were born, as well as the world around us.  All things will change and one must learn to adapt to that change in order to succeed.  Nothing ever remains the same..." Copyright©2005 Scott A. Goffin

America has elected its first African American president, change is happening everywhere and change needs to be made to protect the great sport of Quarter Midget racing for our kids before its to late!

Scott, did you attend the meeting last night? Heard there was quite a group that came in with last minute memberships to attempt to fix the voting process. Heard Fred Bear, Mini Indy member and Region 4 assistant RD was one of them. IS THIS TRUE?

Phil, that is not true.  There were 5 members that were not allowed to vote because they just paid there dues in the past week and their paperwork have not been process at National yet.  These 5 members are long time members of the Buckeye Club.

So Fred Bear was not there either? Just want to make sure I've got the right story.

Fred Bear was there

Was anything decided about the last indoor race?

And of those members not allowed to vote some had incomplete application i.e. pictures

So in other words there was a large intimidation factor with R4 board members present. Must be working on the membership removal list. Yep! it sure is for the kids.   

Yes I was there and a room full of others, the meeting minutes will reflect all in attendance.

Sad thing is that most of the drivers behave more maturely and civilly than the adults do. 
Many need to take a look in the mirror and ask themselves “How old am I”

Just remember everyone, you cheat, you eventually get busted regardless of who you are or what position you hold.  Wonder how the kids feel when they win, not knowing if it was because they did their job or if it was because of that little illegal thing dad did.

And remember what happens to bullies and those with personal agendas, they eventually get bit in the butt.

swartz, the last indoor will be the same as all the others. outlaw or whatever you want to call it. why was fred bear there? doesnt he belong to mini? sounds to me mini indy members are dropping like flies, shouldnt he be worried about that?

I't sounds that maybe someone was trying to stack a vote? This should open more eyes about the levels that QMA will go to. I believe the nest will continues to fester even more. Thank You USAC for being so positive for our sport.

Okedokey. We haven't been able to run this winter due to basketball and I don't like cold. I will plan on running the last one and maybe the next one to support the club if nothing else. My son has been dieing to drive.
Isn't the Buckeye clob 10 or 20 years older than QMA?

i would say yes swartz, i just wish they could run some usac races like alot of the members want to. if not the mv and moc memberships are going to be higher than ever!!

Buckeye has been around since I believe 1957

boy it seems that people that are going to run reg 4 points this year will be able to save money.I'm would like to but I'm enable to. :-\

That ok LLR, everybody need to save money at some point in their life. :'( I think this winter indoor series is great just the way it is (outlaw). You must be doing something right when it get a plug on National TV.

cant wait to get up there and run on that new buckeye track, new walls and all i hear. april cant get here fast enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

let's hope it is all intact by that time.  Rumors are flying this weekend should be very interesting.

i hear ya grandma, dont sound good. hope bqmra stays alive. i think mv and moc are going to have record car counts this year.

congrats bqmra. stay strong!

Buckeye, lets go racin boys and girls!!

Hey race fans, I heard through the grape vine that Buckeye installed their walls this weekend and maybe a couple of laps were turned. Come-oooon April!!

I have been waiting for the Buckeye group to proudly say the track is coming together very nicely; guess though no one wants to brag!  So I will do it for them.  I had a class Saturday but Pops was there being "the goffer" and he said it was great seeing so many people working and having fun getting the track up and running.  Still stuff to do but it is looking sharp!

Great going Buckeye Group!
