A few years ago the SST, SG, and SC guys and gals were given a vote chance to lower the index's by a half or a full second for all classes. It was voted down by the majority mostly due to so many not being able to compete at the faster index or due to the cost to the racers to go that much faster.
My SG car can go the full second faster so it was ok with me however, I understand others issue's by voting it down.
Should the delay boxes be outlawed by the rules that will be fine with me. It is a easy change for me. I can adapt. Just give me the rules and I can play by them.
I did not complain and that is basically the same issue I hate to see. People on here trashing a class just because they do not run that class.
I watch and support all the class's and have race friends in all class's up to and including a few in the Pro class's
If we do not support all the sportsman class's as a whole we may not like the final outcome.
The Sportsmen class's are just filler the Pro's are the show and most of know that.
Some on here just do not get it and think of themselves and live in there own bubble.
The Pro's are currently running here at Indy so I am off to watch some of it.
End of second rant.

We are still here and will be until probably Tuesday when we leave for Earlville.
We are parked about 3 rows south of gate 8 on the east side 3 trailers to the inside.
Look for a white trailer with Texas tags. Lots of white trailers just not many with Texas tags.

How did a thread on parking turn into this??????
anyway, Rick your post on looking for the white trailer reminded me of a joke I played at Atco.
I called a pizza delivery joint and told them to come in track and look for the white trailer.
I got a cold pizza but It was worth it. ��

So did nhra vp in charge of parking walk through sportsman pits with kick me pinned to the seat of his pants. Never could figure this stacking thing out . Talk about a fire hazard could you imagine being parked 4 deep in 10 rigs front and back. Rig in front of you starts on fire at 2am. How would fire dept put that mess out.
