Re: JP1738's Stocker and S/G car
Yeah the crowds around here for a regular points race is very encouraging. My home bracket track Union County Dragway in Union, SC has around 150-170 total cars between Top, FB, Sportsman, Juniors, and TCR in there regular bracket points races. A little less so in the brutally hot portion of the summer but the spring and fall bring out tons of cars on a weekly basis.

Re: JP1738's Stocker and S/G car
Staying busy here in NC! Went over to my local track Shadyside Dragway to run in 6.0 and the bracket race similarly to what I did at Roxboro the week prior with very different results. The car was much slower, only running around 6.15 on motor. Really had to get after it with the nitrous to keep up with the 6.0 field but managed to get the car fast enough. Had early exits in 6.0 both days with the car slowing up second round both days causing me to get behind .003 on Sunday and quit and get way behind on Saturday. I'm ready for the weather to turn so I don't have to spray so much and risk engine consistency and reliability.
This past weekend I made my way to Rockingham Dragway for the "Rock Records Open", a double NHRA national open race with 1/4 mile on Saturday and 1/8th mile on Sunday. Honestly had a great showing in my Mazda, recording a runner-up and semi finish in S/G each day. The stocker was a bit of a wild card showing some inconsistency, but I was hitting the tree in it really good which allowed me to get to second round on Saturday and third round on Sunday. Very promising weekend heading into the NHRA Carolina Nationals coming up in a week and a half where I'll be double entered again in Stock and S/G!
