I'd be surprised if they drew 1/2 as many cars.

I don't know why, but your right. They never do.

Maybe with all the fee increases and how they treat the stock and S/S guys over this new car crap they might draw more cars than you think this year.

I hope your right. I love racing with IHRA. I don't understand the low car counts, unless they have a brain fart when choosing race dates.

One of the biggest problems Memphis had was managing there local bracket and outlaw program. If they managed that better the facility could better manage to stay above water. They never had a problem attracting some of the bigger events(NMCA, NHRA, ADRL, etc), but they will need to keep a the track bracket and outlaw program together to better manage cost. They should hold bracket races every weekend in between big events and have a monthly or bi-monthly outlaw program. They were also stingy with track prep but this could be fixed it with a lil effort on their part. Hope they can make it work though, I need an event inside of 4 hrs to attend. I haven't seen but one Super Stock car for two years. I'm way past due for a divisional race.
