The bite at Epping ??

The NHRA crew worked on the track all day everyday to the point were they did do a grind thursday night . The starter tried his best to give us a good track and I appauld him and the whole NHRA crew for doing what they could . When pro ran NHRA applied gold dust for every pair I watched on friday and it seemed to help them. Most cars got down without issue , however my stocker CJ never got down clean one pass , My super stocker did get down( 10.5 tire) with 60lbs added , 12 degree's of timing pulled for 2 seconds and the RPM's lowered . In the first round however the SS spun the tires and went side ways at aboult 1200 ft the data logger shows rpm's went from 7900 to 8900. We tried similar adjustement to the stocker but just no luck with the 9in tire . Again Hats off to the NHRA crew for working on the track and doing the best they could . In my opinion that's the difference between Etown and Epping . The track operators at both Epping and Etown need to resurface the starting lines in my opinion
