You failed to answer the question...

I think racing the 1/4 mile is boring. Maybe it's because my stocker is slow, maybe it's because I have ADD or maybe it's just because we do so much 1/8th mile around here. I like the fact that you don't beat on your stuff as much in the 1/8th. I love the fact that something is always going on inside the car in the 1/8th mile. I personally believe the 1/8th mile is safer, simply due to lower speeds.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind a 1/4 mile race every few months, but I'll take 1/8th mile for Stock Eliminator. Anyone that says 1/8th mile racing is boring simply doesn't have a legit excuse for not liking it.

Apparently you are the one "unhappy" because I don't agrre with everything you like.:-)

Huh? Where do my likes or dislikes come into this? You're more than welcome to dislike 1/8th mile racing. It's not really relevant to the conversation, though. You said, "please don't tell me this is an 1/8th mile track." It is not an 1/8th mile track, and I answered your question. So... what's the problem?

Are you going to make this race ? Have a nice day

No, sorry Ed. We have a double-header Pro-Am/Sportsman National at Richmond, right up the road, on the same weekend. I've made the crazy long trips to San Antonio and Tulsa before, so I wouldn't rule it out in the future. Looks like a great facility, so if scheduling and such all come together sometime, I'd be more than happy to support them. Good luck next week!

Mike, i think someone is wanting this track to fail....sounds like he has a grudge against them or something...i dunno but it sure looks like a great track and the video on youtube of the pro mod race looks like its a pretty fast track....there is too many people who feel shallow about 1/8 racing...i thought racing was about racing no matter what size or grade of the track we are all here to race and have fun not down our sport or complain because a track or persons racing feel it would be safer to race 1/8 rather than 1/4 mile.....sometimes a decision like that could save someones life

1/8 th. mile is too quick,.it's bad when they use good 1/4 mile tracks and run an 1/8....top whatever want to run 1/8th,let 'em.Give me 1320..."1/8 mile sucks" Bart.

Excuse me but can you tell me how you manage to race 1/4 mile without racing 1/8th mile....just wondering.
