I would just like to thank Mr. Collins for helping us out as much as he did; however with that said it will be my first and last Open at Gainsville and I think I speak for a few other racers when I say shame on whomever was in charge of the track preparations. The test and tune session on Thursday was a disgrace and the track wasn't much better yesterday. At least half the cars left and with a minimal car count to begin with, this Open will probably be non existent soon enough. I just wonder how NHRA and the track thinks a race is suppose to grow from year to year when you can even put your best foot forward on the first go. Weather was great, had a great time seeing a few friends before seasons ends and most of us made our war to PRI. Next time the NHRA or the track needs extra money to properly prepare the track, I'm sure you can pass the hat around the pits and we will be more than happy to chip in, especially after driving over 2000 miles!
