Re: Budds Creek
Good move IHRA. This year in a 3 week span there was MIR-NHRA@VMP- and Rockingham. Those tracks are only about 300 miles apart and most racers can't afford the money or time off from work to go to all 3. I'll bet car counts were down this year because of this.

Re: Budds Creek
I'm with u Chip, I think it will help also, car counts as well as spectator counts. I think Mr. Miller probably wanted this change and that is why it was made. Whenever it is, I'll be there cause that is one cool place to race.

Re: Budds Creek
Larry - it's on all four PLUS the back window of my truck! It's those darn Hot Rod guys that you have to keep reminding to have the dial-in on all four windows. Stagin' Steve will never live that down...
I got the idea for the "STOCK" inside the number from the Pro Stock guys. Given Chip's post, I'm sure they're aware of Atco, but are probably more concerned with spectators than car counts. It's a lot easier to draw another 1,000 spectators than it is another 100 cars -- and that's a huge dollar difference. It's too bad that there ever has to be a conflict anywhere, but that's just the way it is sometimes.
