I've been going to the points races and nats for the past 3-4 yrs solid and after last years fuel bill and time away from ther business I have to ask myself why?
We ran 2 Ihra events within 5 hrs of the house for a total of 4 races. I left on Friday evening for 1 and thursday evening for another which was a friday/saturday race.
How about adding some racing for the super class cars. Most have been down the track a 1000 times so time trails need to be cut back and races need to be run. With the cost of fuel now its really hard to drive 6-8 hrs to race for $1k when I can go to 1 of 4 dragstrips within an hour of the house and run 2 classes and a purse of $2k for less than the points race entry and sleep in my own bed..
