  Robert Diehl, owner of the Charlotte County Motorsports Park and the Fastruck Racing Series, is worried the court has opened a can of worms.
  
  Many of the tracks have youth riders, and whether those programs will continue will depend on what his insurance companies decide. Without protection from waivers, companies may not insure the youth racing - an outcome that would kill the program.
  
  "I don't know what the logical thinking of the Supreme Court was to make this kind of decision," Diehl said. The ruling, he said, seems to discourage youths' involvement in sports and activities.
  
  "It's kind of a catastrophic snowball effect," Diehl said.

  "I had heard that story forever," says longtime promoter and current Charlotte County (Fla.) Motorsports Park owner Bobby Diehl."But (my opinion was) until somebody shows me those bolts, it's just B.S. Because nobody had shown me those bolts, I considered them (the engines) impregnable."
  
  But gradually the rumors and hearsay turned into reality.Diehl remembers the encounter vividly."It was in 2005, right before Christmas at Lakeland Speedway.A guy walked up and put the bolts in my hand and said 'here Merry Christmas.'" Now, Diehl had seen cheater bolts in the past, "The first ones I saw were rusty while the second ones were kind of shiny."
  
  But his Christmas encounter was a different story altogether.

  Bobby Diehl spent 25 years teaching shop in Hillsborough County.He loved molding youth into tomorrow's backbone of America.But when he got the chance to own and operate his own race car track, he jumped at it.The way he figured it, how many opportunities will you get to run a stock car track in a balmy, sub-tropical envoronment?Diehl signed on the dotted line to become the new proprietor of Charlotte County Speedway.
  
  The last six weekends of 2006, Diehl acted as an understudy under former owner/promoter LeRoy Davidson.
  ...
  Then as 2007 started, Diehl was on his own.He quickly changed the name to Charlotte County Motorsports Park and began making improvements.A lease extension helped het things off on the right foot.Diehl kept the Punta Gorda 3/8-mile paved oval lit all year, only taking off for holidays and, of course, rain.He brought in a wide variety of traveling series ‹ both stock cars and open wheel.He also kept a few base divisions.
  
  He added on side shows like boat races and fire-breathing monsters to keep fans on the edge."It was exciting," Diehl said of his first year at CCMP.
  
  Being in entertainment is the place to be.We're in an area that's 80 degrees year-round.We have the most beautiful harbor.There's 100 golf courses in a 75-mile area.
  
  Diehl is hoping to tie in racing as part of the Charlotte/Southwest Florida total experience."That¹s one of our focuses for 2008 to bring in more people from out of state", Diehl said.They started the Skybus trips at the airport.There's going to be two of three a day and it will keep growing every week.
  
  Diehl believes visitors from the north will return to Charlotte after experiencing the area's beauty.That, in turn, will positively affect the slumping housing business.Eighty five percent of all people who race have some kind of tie-in to construction, Diehl said.The slowdown has been tough for these guys.There is a lot of other work planned at 8655 Piper Road.The scoring tower must be improved."We have it being engineered now", said Diehl of C.H. Design out of North Port.
  ...
  Diehl also wants to build a structure that would be an arcade, adult slots and all.Friday night, we'll have affordable go-karting, Diehl said.
  ...
  "The last few weeks we were in the 400-500 range", Diehl said of fan count.
