Racers...& Spectators....we are shooting for a Friday t&t (weather permitting)...and a "Gamblers Race" for Saturday if everyones up to it..the winner of the gamblers will collect 60% of the purse as well as a "Free" race pass for the following Saturday race day ..we will be running a full concession stand with 'hot dogs $1.00 all day Saturday...Pops $1.00 as well.... On behalf of Friendship Raceway (former Steel Valley Dragway), Myself & Daughter April would like to welcome you to a day at the races and want to thank each & everyone of you that come out & support our track. we would also like to especially thank those of you who helped sponsor the track this year as well as all of you who came out & pitched in at the track getting it ready!!! Without you, this track would not be possible.. I further want to take a moment to apologize to those of you who felt offended that we did not call you personally regarding the placement stipulations required by the park board...I was informed by others that you guys knew about the change...It is a matter I personally plan on taking up with the board....(it was not a rule we made)..One last thing I wanted to say is that we plan on doing the best we can here at the track...Most of you know that we are considered an"outlaw track", yes, we may not have the best surface, or the biggest payouts, nor the best equipment, or the sponsors that the other tracks have....but, what we do have is hospitality!!! We treat people as family here....we are striving to have a relaxing season. Remember people, we are not going to get rich racing here at friendship raceway, but we will have some fun...If you win, well more power to you...but, if you lose, take it in stride....theres always next week....we will try to keep the tracks bite at its best for what we are working with..(don't think it was that bad last year)...I know I seen some wheel standers...& excellent 60 footers.....anyway, hope to see you all at the track....and lets have fun....a day at the races is supposed to be relaxing an enjoyable!!! Lets strive to make sure that happens!!!!
