Has anyone noticed that Atlanta is down to 2 grade points - 130 quota - and only 21 Superstock entries?

From what we heard how they treated the sportman racers in Gainesville I surprised they have any cars.

You know maybe Tom Compton may be asking for us for a STIMULUS CHECK at the gate in Atlanta. What do you think ?

Re: Atlanta

Re: Atlanta
 

Would be interested in hearing about this myself...????

Re: Atlanta
 

I was at Gainsville this year. It seemed to be status quo for the sportsman racers. There was plenty of room for the sportsman to pit. The parking went very smooth. I only waited at the gate for about an hour to get parked on wednesday morning. I went through tech on wednesday. that also was very quick. It took less than 1/2 hour. There was a total of 96 super stock cars. The schedule was as it has been for years. the sportsman run early in the morning and after the pro qualifing sessions. nothing real different. I thought the event was run pretty good. They did have a section of the stands at the finish line for the racers and VIP's to sit and watch the program. I would also like to know what complaints the other guys had.

They let a Q stocker win. lol.

Re: Atlanta
 

Maybe they start to drop these classes from nationals after this year..maybe just as good!

Re: Atlanta
 

Why would that be good if they dropped Stock and Superstock from competing at National events?

Re: Atlanta
 

Not many talks any good of them anymore..lots of days..very little racing..bad treatment..loss of contingency's and so on..

Re: Atlanta
 

I don't agree with everything that they do,but NHRA is not as bad as some make them out to be.

Re: Atlanta
 

In comparison to what?Have you been wearing earmuffs and blinders in the past few years?

Still only 24 SSers.This is a good time to let them know we're tired of all the crap.Wouldn't it be something if all 24 pulled the plug and there was no SS?
If all 24 do I'd be willing to give one of them the use of my car at Reading to run Stock.They would have made a point and would at least get the drivers grade point if they wanted it.Lets see who's serious about getting a fair shake from these money grubbers.
