This is a big blow for them. AFM runs Buttonwillow, Infineon, and Thunderhill, but that's some serious commuting to get to those. There's the Chuckwalla racing league too, but that's a pretty decent drive as well. Sure would be nice if some big buck fat cat came in there and just bought the whole facility from them and fixed it up a bit. Not likely, though.   Rodrob Posted on Monday, February 06, 2012 - 10:32 pm:        Just posted this in the 1125 forum. Sorry for the duplicate post. I feel like i've been kicked in the balls!   Bertman Posted on Monday, February 06, 2012 - 10:48 pm:        I have been going there and watching the club races since 2006 and probably only miss two or three a year. I am in utter disbelief of the WSMC shut down and really don't know what to say. I feel extremely sorry for racers like Steve and Rob who have invested so much off season time and money just to get ONE race in. I sure hope there is a reprieve in this line of thinking towards the club.   Slaughter Posted on Monday, February 06, 2012 - 11:00 pm:        Going to be a boost for WERA West and Chuckwalla. Next race with WERA is Vegas next weekend. I can't swing it. Missing 2 points races with WERA is tough but you gotta do what you gotta do. This sucks.   Rodrob Posted on Monday, February 06, 2012 - 11:34 pm:        OK, so how do we turn this into the best thing that ever happened?!!! WSMC racers contact me - rob@crotchrocket.tv Never quit!   Rsh Posted on Tuesday, February 07, 2012 - 12:03 am:        I am surprised it had lasted as long as it did, so many things are in decline with this booming economy. Club road racing has turned into a luxury instead of a hobby. Thinking of switching back to dirt bikes, more options.   Smoke Posted on Tuesday, February 07, 2012 - 06:47 am:        best luck fellows. put 40000+ on the truck/trailer last year running to the tracks and looks like the same this year. AHRMA is supposed to be at Willow soon tim   Slaughter Posted on Tuesday, February 07, 2012 - 07:43 am:        Thanks Tim... gonna be interesting. Trying to figure out how to get my ass to Vegas. FUSA in 2004 was my last race there. Kind of like starting over.
