I can't speak to the starting line issues because I don't have a high HP car. But the NPR staff put on a great event. The place had tons of spectators sat and sun. Concession stands were packed! Even had fireworks!

Everything the track has done and put on for the weekend was outstanding!

I was behind an F/SA in first round in left lane and watched it just boil the tires! No way was I going to hook. Was told it was around a half dozen or so consecutively in the left lane of E1 that spun. Then it was addressed.
For E1 when prep should be at its best for that to happen is unaccpetable!

Does D4 always have stock first? In D5 we have SST first which I think definitely helps. Get heat in the track and I would think big tire throttle stop would be less susceptible to tire spin. Surprised that’s not uniform with scheduling across all 7 divisions.

Unfortunately this is correct. We pleaded with the former division director to put SST first. Maybe our new director will listen.

Can we get the announcer from this past weekend to do the national event TV shows. And kick Tony P to the curb. He was awesome.

I appreciate the kind words fellas.
I spent some time in the tower when the Hemi cars ran. I was impressed by not only his announcing but his absorbing info on the Hemi's while Herb McCandless added color commentary. When Herb compares you Steve Evans and Jon Lundburg, that is quite a compliment

Great meeting you this weekend my man!

I greatly appreciate that. It was a great honor to share the mic with him.

I was quite proud of myself this weekend. The closest I came to making an off color comment over the mic was when Bengt Blomberg got out of shape in T/S Q1, and I made my #2 comment lol.
