I don't remember hearing people complain about drawn out three day races. If you only want to race two days, do what a (very) few do: Simple show up Sat morning. That's what people that can't miss work Friday do. How is that a bad deal?

Already backed mine out of the trailer, parked it in it's bay, and fogged the cylinders with Marvel Mystery Oil. I'll let it sit there a couple of weeks until the Tulsa race. Guess I have time to build another weight bar.

There was a time when 3 days seemed a little drawn out. But with the additions to the schedule (T/D, T/S, index cars, bikes, et al) 2days leaves no room for error either mechanical or Mother Nature.

The Friday, Sat. and Sunday schedule has worked well in the past. Those who can make it on Friday get an extra day to make timed runs, cook out and greet friends. Those that can't, come in Friday nite or early Sat. morning and still get to race. In the past if a track wanted to have a bracket race on Friday they scheduled it after the Div. race. Few seem to participate. I know that I never did due to possible breakage, late nites and the extra cost. I figered if I wanted to bracket race, I could do it a lot closer to home. I would suggest to the new director that before changing things that he discuss it will several of the racers who attend most of the events. In the past if it appeared that it would rain out the Sunday race we held the race Saturday night. Why change what has worked for years? It seems that the intended changes will not be well received. I know that I will stay home rather than chance a rain out. Fuel cost are too high to take that gamble, but if it were a three day race I would assume that within the three days we could complete the Div race.

Trey since stock is the only class with a tire rule, have stock run first, also have stock run in the rotation after some long cars i.e. super comp, comp, or top dragster. The long cars help put rubber back on the starting line and this will help the starting line crew help ready the track for the next round of qualifying.

Finally, a division director that doesn't put up with any monkey business from the smart azz racers. I need to introduce you to Charlie Bob. :D

Re: Weather for Belle Rose??
 

Trey, can you answer me this; is $60 for a crew pass is set by the division, or by the track?

You folks need to give trey a chance to make things better remember Glendora is still boss.He will be a great director because he has been in the trenches and he will listen.no one can control the weather.Thanks in advance Trey.Dwight Allen and family

Re: Weather for Belle Rose??
 

Everything was set before i got here. I am asking the same questions you are. I know there is some standard pricing that goes for any divisional. Just learning like you.
