ET Motopark opens with practice day

On Saturday 3-12 ET Motopark opened its circle track to a test/tune/practice day. The new facility, 5 miles South of the 60 on Ironwood East of Mesa, had over 60 cars show up to try the new track out. Rick Setser, the tracks new GM was pleased with the turn out and the participation of the racers. Setser made it clear to everyone that this new venture was still in the learning process for all, but that the bottom line was people will be treated with respect and fairness at ET.
Track conditions offered a bumpy surface, not uncommon for a brand new track. Between one of the sessions they went out and bladed off the high spots and made it much smoother. Too much water too deep was the problem, and track officials took note and learned.
Staff was friendly and cordial. Things went off pretty orderly for the first effort.
There is another test/tune/practice day scheduled for next Saturday 2/19/11 from 1:00 to 5:00
