A dragster racer that more than likely has more laps than any other car out there told me he made several runs Friday and Saturday and that the problem seems to be corrected. Sounds like Cliff and others found the issue and got it fixed. Hopefully if it appears again they will know where to look and get on top of it asap.

I would like to know what the problem was. Mike, Jeremy, can anyone tell us?

Jason this not directed just at you but I am sure their are alot of people wondering whats up.
Having to know what the problem was is just going to stir up more he said she said on this website and other national websites where people like to bitch and moan about almost anything from their racecar to their mother-in- law.
I think if you have to know call Mike and wait for him to call you back. I see no reason for him to have to explain himself for all of america to read,because as soon as he post what the problem was someone will copy and paste and BASH pacemakers with 100 replys and 6500 veiws so some people can sit back and laugh.
I happen to race at pacemakers its close to my house like yours and enjoy the time when i am their. I Can leave Dom jr their by himself and know that there is a ton of people to watch and help him if needed.

I have raced at many different tracks around the country and could post something negative about every one of them if I choose to but what good is negitive posting doing for anyone other than the people who do not race there anyway???
Example
Trails has water issues.
Tri-state has grass in the middle
Norwalk races all night long.
42 is well 42.
moroso is a mud hole
cecil county has no shut down
milans track prep or lack of.
and i could sit here and bitch all day long and live in the problems that
every track has or we could just move on know that there seems to be an end to it.

We raced their friday night and Dom jr won. He went 5.11 four times in a row in both lanes and a 5.107 Bill Leahey was their also and found the same results.
We came back saturday and ran seven times from 5.124 to 5.111 and you are welcome to see the slips.

So I suggest lets make peace and not war for pacemakers go race where ever you want and have fun doing it.

One last thing about racing If you are trying to make a million dollars racing you better start with two million .

Thats my two cents on this topic. Dom Sr 614-620-1076

Pacemaker racer that started the post on drag race results-- Man up who are you??

Wasn't trying to start any more crap. Just wanted an honest answer to the problem and a reason to come back. I will take your advice and seek Mike or Jeremy personally to ask. Thanks.

I know what its was, and its so simple its hard to belive.....but like Dom said I don't understand why u would get on a website as big as DRR and bad mouth PDP to the world.....most the guy on there don't even know where PDP is...... that's just DUM.......

VERY WELL SAID LOCILENTO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOOD LUCK FINDING OUT WHO'S POSTING THE CRAP ON DRR.

I LIVE 10 MINUTES FROM ANOTHER DRAG STRIP BUT MAKE THE 45 MINUTE DRIVE TO RACE AT PACEMAKERS ALMOST EVERY WEEKEND BECAUSE WE ALWAYS HAVE FUN THERE AND ENJOY THE FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO RACE AT PACEMAKERS NO MATTER WHAT IS SAID ON HERE OR ANY OTHER WEBSITE BECAUSE IT TAKES RACER LOYALTY TO THEIR TRACK TO KEEP THE GATES OPEN.

I READ A POST ON DRR FROM SOMEONE WHO STATED THAT "PACEMAKER'S GATES WOULD BE CLOSED BY THE END OF THE SEASON", (WISHFUL THINKING??????????? MAYBE) BUT THE GATES ARE STILL OPEN AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE OPEN AS LONG AS WE RACERS SUPPORT THE TRACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THERE ARE SOME PROBLEMS WITH EVERY TRACK THAT YOU WILL EVER GO TO. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT PACEMAKERS IS ONE OF THE VERY FEW TRACKS THAT HAVE A FORUM ON THERE WEBSITE THAT YOU CAN DISCUSS THE PROBLEMS, AND I COMMEND THEM FOR KEEPING THE FORUM GOING. ( OTHER TRACKS DO NOT WANT ANYTHING NEGATIVE BEING SAID ABOUT THEIR TRACK ON THEIR OWN WEBSITE!!!!!)

I LIKE THE FORUM AND ENJOY READING OTHER PEOPLE'S OUTLOOKS AND OPINIONS, JUST WISH PEOPLE WOULD ALSO POST THE POSITIVE THINGS ABOUT PACEMAKERS AND NOT JUST CONCENTRATE ON THE NEGATIVES.

Heard a rumor that Racin Jason and/or him and his dad took a stab at operating PDP several years ago......if true, how smoothly did that operation run???

Just wondering if anybody can confirm or not......source told me that their deal was about as F'd up an operation as there ever was!!!!

I think you might want to get some crap straight there "Goldberg". Racin Jason and his dad were never in charge of the operation of the Pacemakers race track. Why dont you keep your mouth shut unless you plan on revealing your true identity, instead of hiding behind a screen name. You have an aweful time keeping your mouth shut about anything anyone says on here. As you can tell i dont post much at all , but read a fair amount what is discussed on here. I hope i don't piss you off by what i have said, but if i have so be it. I can reveal my name and what i drive because i dont hide behind screen names. Darren Mahan and i race in Sportsman class in a very slow ford ranger truck. Thank you very much. Your source also must not know very much either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UUU'MMMMMMMMMMM, THAT WASN'T QUITE AS POSITIVE AS I WAS HOPING FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shocked

SURE WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO POST ONE OF THOSE BIG HUG EMOTICONS VERNON!! OR MAYBE THE POPCORN EATING ONE!!!

If nothing else I do like to start the bullsh*t. I just wish some people had the balls to come up to me at the track and say something. Amazing how someone that never races at PDP can be on here and reply to everyone that does race there. Goldberg, my dad was an employee and had no say in the day to day operation, please get your info right. I was never involved other than paying my entry fee and racing like everyone else that rolled thru the gate. If you have a problem with me or my opinions then grow some hair on ur ass and say something to me in person. Otherwise quit being a little girly bit*h and go f yourself! If nothing else maybe this will get me banned and I wont have to worry about replying to idiots that are too scared to put their real name on their posts. Have a good day. Sorry Mr. Bartoe, this one really isn't positive, but at least we know who each of us is.
