Not to nit pick but how can you get the same number of runs? They run 5 qualifying runs. Stock gets 3 even by your logic and count 1st round (as far as I know they also get a first round) that will still only be 4 for stock. The only ones that may end with the same number of runs are the winners and runner ups as there will probably be more rounds to win stock.

Because if you look at saturdays run it says qual #3 but it is really #4 must be a typo and any class that is scheduled to run on saturday always loses a TT because of 1st rd.

The issue with the schedule is not with the index classes. The car counts have been real low so they get through their rounds quickly. One of the problems I see for the valdosta race is not starting until noon. The other 2 races that we already had the runs started earlider than that. Both previous races ran real smooth until the alchohol cars started dumping all kinds of fluids on the track. We will be lucky to get 2 hits on Friday and one on Saturday.

Actually up to now the new division director has done a decent job. The car counts have been way down so that might be why it seems to be moving quicker. We will see at Valdosta there should be a pretty good crowd there wit the Gators the following week.

This schedule sucks. This will be the 5 race in 6 weeks then add in the Gators and that will be 6 races in 7 weeks. Brutal!! Luckily I hit for some cash at Immokalee and Gainsville.

One of the .90 racers spotted this....may be a Friday/Sat race....

SOUTH GEORGIA RUN SCHEDULE UPDATE
In light of the current forecast for Sunday in Valdosta, Georgia and the fact that many of our racers will be attending the Gatornationals the following weekend SGMP and NHRA are currently revising the run schedule. Be prepared to contest this weekend's Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series event on Friday and Saturday if neccesary. The goal is to not run on Monday. Participants should be prepared for time runs and qualifying to be trimmed.

They are calling for a 70% chance of rain on Sunday.

I know in Florida, when you get a 70% chance, frogs drown! Jim

They should try to finish as much as possible on sat at every div race leave sun for a makeup or get back home day.
