Race Issues...
 

I was asked to inquire about trying to do more on Fridays at Division 3 divisionals....at least in the summer months when we can.

Or maybe run alcohol cars on Friday and Saturday and leave Sunday to the sportsman so it can complete earlier in the day.

What do you guys think about this one....I'm sure I will speak with Jay in Stanton about this and I would like to hear what some of you guys think.......

Issue #2
It looks like some of the top dragster and super comp guys have had to remove their secondary brake handle at national events. As the rules read it is illegal. The handle must be connected to the primary braking system. I asked for the rule to be reviewed and changed as for the most part the secondary system is used for safety and ease of loading and unloading. Before you say that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard, I know it is....The rule was written for other reasons years ago and somebody just recently noticed it and started enforcing it......I remember cars having it way back ...10 to 15 years ago...
So hopefully they will fix that up....

If there is something you guys want me to look into....send me a note.....Nothing happens too quickly.....I'm sure you know....

Since i was voted most popular driver in div 3 some years ago I think a bikini or wet t shirt contest on saturday at 5pm would be nice( HOT chicks only ).
Having no alcohol cars on sunday is a good thing.

I'm sure CR would love to be a judge. LOL

Alcohol cars running to completion on Saturday is a great idea! Also, if everyone else continues to run 1st round on Saturday, run 1st round of SST on Saturday as well. Don't understand that one at all, and it REALLY SUCKS to run your TT at 9:30 and be done for the day!!!

When was that, when they were still drag racing horse drawn carriages?

Rock, you might ask about the 18yrs deal if you would........since the Tobacco Co. are no long assoc. with NHRA I'd think that would no longer be an issue.

Yeah, I've too had my butt handed to me by youngins like Shipp, Whitefoot, and others but now it's my youngin that could be doing the whoopin ! lol lol

I would be interested in lifting the rule if you run 10.90 that is the only class you can run. What is the difference between a driver running 10.90 and 9.90 or running 9.90 and 8.90, or 10.90 and super stock?

How about no entry fees. Gas money. 1st. rd. loser money. Motorhome hookups. Paved parking.No friday except t&t if you want. 1 time run Sat. then run till dark and finish Sunday if necessary.Alcohol on fri. night to draw crowd for track. Oh, free beer too. That's about it for me.
Thanks Rock

1st round for S/ST on Saturday would be a big improvement.

Re: Race Issues...
 

I'll agree with Bob on the first round on Sat for S/ST.
