You're only the 4th person to complain about it since November and 2 of them haven't shown up to a race in years.
I will be porting the website over to the QSAC site so i can do both at the same time and save both clubs some money. I have started the process of doing just that, but I have been having problems with my back and can not sit at a computer for long periods of time. I have to for work, but I just can't do it for the websites.

When the GLQSR site is completely moved over to the new area on the QSAC site, I will decommission the old site.

If you need information, I will be glad to provide. Please e-mail me...

Jim If You Are Moving The Gl Site To Qsac Are You Going To Make It Easer To Down Load. I Can Go Anyware On The Gl Site But Cant On The Qsac Site Other Than The Front Page . Just Asking Don't Get In A Hurry About It.

It will be its own site and a direct link to the GLQSR site is all you will need. It will not have anything to do with the QSAC site, other than a link to the main page. Hope that made sense.

And hobbyten, I wasn't trying to offend you and it is not an inconvienance for me to supply information. I was just stating the facts and trying to save each club some money and myself some time.

The fact is, for the last month I have been suffering with some severe back pain. i know this may sound funny, but it gets really inflamed when I sit at a computer or sit in an upright position.

After going to a chiropractor every day for almost 2 weeks, i canceled all my appointments and went to my family doctor. Come to find out I have a rib out, or dislocated. This happened somehow during the DFW trip and I have been in enormous pain since. Writing this has taken the wind right out of me.

So if I have been lax in my duties and offended anyone, sorry about that. Anyone care to take over for a while or perminant? I welcome your help.

Hey, no problem. I am sorry for the delay.
There is much work to be done yet and I am open for suggestions. Please let me know how I can improve on what is there and what you would like to see, or what you for sure do not want to see.

I will do what I can to accommodate the club's wishes.

That is awsome!!!

Thank you for you generous donations everyone.

I had collected from the Tri-State race a Freddies and sent an arrangement to the church last Thursday on behalf of all QSAC members.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your entire family Doug.

These people that we race with are kind of like extended family. When something like this happens, we all feel it.

69 deads ends into 96 ,take 96 to exit 93A . Go about 2 1/2 miles and the entrance to the track is on the right . Watch for the sign to the track .

Big O
06-24-2009, 10:58 AM
Randy is correct, but here is some more. I-69 does not dead end into I-96 it runs with it for about 5 miles. The exit numbers get confusing were they run together. Exit 93A is also called M-43 west or Saginaw Hwy. As you are heading west at about 2 1/4 miles you will notice a very tall Pine tree on the right. The Pine tree is front of a house and on the west side of it is a corn field. On the west side of the corn field is our new entrance along a tree line. Randys race track sign should be out at the road. It is a low sign that he stands up on his way in and picks up on the way out. If you go past Fun Tyme Amusements or Sundance Chevy you went past it. Have a nice ride up and enjoy the racing.
