As I posted earlier, there are plenty of tracks which pitch people for exceeding the class break. You guys are acting like this is the only place this has ever happened in the history of drag racing. The track makes the rules. Don't like it? Don't go.

We don't have tracks in every county like you guys do back east, It's a long drive to go somewhere else around here and it's hard enough to put diesel in the truck as it is.

"Don't like it Don't go" C'mon.... let's all just roll over and take whatever someone in position decides what's best for the masses without any input or discussion.

Ahhh...I understand now. This was the first time in drag racing history in which a track changed rules in mid-season. Got it!
Luckily, a dragstrip is a democracy so you should have no problem overturning this ruling. Last edited by Bret Kepner; 07-13-2011 at 08:16 PM. |

I do find it ironic that the person who is likely the foremost authority on defunct race tracks would suggest we "not go" when we feel something is unjust. How many of the now closed race tracks shut down due to bad management? Car counts are low enough without alienating customers (which racers are) and democracy or not, the track is a business that needs customers.

Are you kidding!! I'm not going to suffer the wrath of Terry LOL! Besides, you've done a good job of explaining how this came about there it's just that some choose to ignore facts. Hopefully this will get sorted out soon and no ones feelings get hurt too badly.

I understand why a racer would be upset with a rules change at mid-season. I also know of, (and race at), many tracks at which this particular deal is a non-issue. My post was only to clarify the original (poorly-worded) complaint and point out that, since many tracks DO toss people for clocking an E.T. under the "bottom break", (NOT just DIALING under it), one should be thankful to get away with it this long. |
