Don't forget the Indians don't need the track. If the traffic and crowds mess with their casino and hotel business they could shut it down in a heartbeat. It's up to the NHRA to straighten it out.

The grade point system is much better than when there wasn't won. Back in the day, you would get a questionnaire from nhra at the end of the previous year asking what national events you were planning on attending. You filled it out and about 1 month prior to the event you would get a form and send in your money and hope you got a confirmation back that you got in. There would be 100+ entries for the national and only 30+ for the divisional held at the same track. Now if you want to race at the big races, you have to participate at the smaller ones first. They had to develop a system and this one works for the majority of the racers.
How many people remember back before there were run "sessions" for your class??? Now that was a crap shoot on getting to run. Dan SC4698

Boy you're one of the lucky ones. The lot where NHRA let us pre stack was a total gong show. If everyone went by the order they arrived and were in line things would have gone smooth. I know of a couple of screaming matches and lots of butting in line. Just no common sense by some racers.

Everyone acts like they are picking land to build a house and live there for 30 years. Its just a pit spot for 3 days people! We are lucky there is even a race track in the area that we can all play at.
See everyone tomorrow in the dust bowl. I hear the beer is just as cold there as it is in a paved spot. Brad |

I will concede that the Wild Horse Pass event is a giant cluster***k before the stacking line opens. Dan
