I agree. Bowman is priced awesome but may be handcuffing themselves a littlebit for improvements. It might piss off some people if they raise the price, but they will only bitch about it for a week or so and they will be right back. I know money is money, but we are only talking 5 more bucks.

Ronald and the guys at Bowman do a good job on track prep, and I am actually blown away that they even ask about opinions, and as a racer I appreciate it. I was actually talking to a few other bracket racers at Dorchester who are considering other tracks next season, due to their hour long track clean up, and inconsistant right lane issue, that they seem uninterested in repairing. Who knows, Bowman might of come along at a good time..
You are right. Dorchester better get their shit together or everyone is just going to move to Bowman on Sunday's. Bowman would probably be closer for everyone except the people coming from Charleston, and we are use to having to drive a good distance anyway.

And Ronald- we know improvements/changes aren't free- we just appreciate you listening!
