Re: 1/8 mile racing oppinion
I run Super Pro at a 1/8 mile track in Portland, OR when I bracket race,also at Seattle and Woodburn, OR but they are 1/4 mile. I also run S/ST at all the division races and Natl opens. I really don't have a preference. Portland does it for curfew reasons so they can get the program in. Many of the tracks will switch to 1/8 mile if they have a rain delay that threatens the program. As for running S/ST S/G and S/C on 1/8 mile it isn't a big deal, I run around 7.20's when I am chasing 10.90 in the 1/4. they talked about the Natl Open in Portland being 1/8 mile so I took a stab at in the bracket race, took about 3 passes to hit it consistently. Give it a chance, don't avoid it just because it is 1/8 mile.
2 cents from the West Coast.
