It was not that way.
I am sure everyone has met someone and right away, you just simply did not like them at all. No particular reason, just instant dislike. Prater and Whetzel were two men that flat don't like each other personally or professionally. Since they were both officers of the law for the county, they had to work together. Prater made it hard on the sheriff to do his job. Whetzel just shut down the autocross access for any non law enforcement to eliminate one issue that Prater did not like. Prater started an investigation into the sheriff, and that was one issue he could just close.
Now, every single member of the county commissioners are replaced, and the sheriff is replaced. We will have to find a new source to have an "IN" with them.
I was the inside source for getting the track last time. The former sheriff's wife and my wife are good friends. They both love dachshunds and they were over here to see our dachshunds and the Sheriff was sitting on our living room floor, play with the dogs when I approached him about using the track. He said he would talk to the captain in charge of the track, and I got the captains name and phone number and gave it to our region president at the time, Mike Lindsey.
We used it for almost 20 years with no issues.
