[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dean Nelson: [QB] After months of unreturned phone calls and e-mails, I finally got through to someone. They sent me a letter that asked for more than what I am willing or want to provide, with things like an advertising plan with $$ amounts dedicated to TV / radio / publications, Fed ID #, detailed lists of the areas in which the facility will be utilized, details "which makes your event unique enough to be considered", etc. They elude to spending thousands of dollars in promotions (!!!). This is a helluva lot more than I'm willing to stick my neck out for, and I don't like being jerked around being told one thing at one point, and then, months later, "by the way" when it comes right down to it with a bunch more requirements. There is obviously a communication problem, and not on my part. When this started, I couldn't have been any clearer with my intentions. My goal was to simply rent the track for a day for our use, but they want me to set up and advertise the event as if I am a professional promoter. Also, looking at their schedule (http://www.sacramentoraceway.com/srpcal.htm), they gave away the September Grudge Fest date to JR Drags / Summit Series that I was originally told we could have, so there is no backup date if the weather sucks in Oct. So I'm done. If they don't want my $8-9k ($5k full profit for them), so be it... I don't need the aggravation. It would have been fun, particularly since more sponsors were willing to "sweeten the pot". See you at the track. Best regards, Dean [/QB][/QUOTE]
