Ohio based "90 series"? - Page 3

luckydog: Thanks for your thoughts and kind words.

I understand that their are a some conflicts with a couple of IHRA dates as well as the D5 race in Earlville. The goal was to try to stay away from as many National and Divisional races as possible. As we all know, when the NHRA and IHRA schedules are announced (along with our scheduled larger events) it can leave small wiggle room as to scheduling an series like this without stepping on something. We were successful in staying away from the NHRA Division 3 areas and the IHRA Division 3, with Grand Bend in Canada being the only exception. I hope that we can have a successful season in 2009, and hope to see everyone at the track whenever possible.

Chris, This schedule is great! The 5% Rule, nothing works for everyone. We will be coming this year for the first time. Just thought I would shine some light on the other side of the coin.$

Understood! Like I said, it was just my case. Good luck with the series. If I win at Byron in June, I'll be at NTR in July!

Hey Lucky Dog, I was not taking a shot at you. Sorry if you got that. I just wanted to say that in the opposite, it works perfectly for me. No matter what dates, some of us wont make it. Best of Luck, Jeff

Chris:

I'm going to whine like I always do but you love it though. Don't know if we will be at the July 18 Super Series race. We have never been too fond of the Night Under Fire Exhibition race same goes for Norwalk. We have stopped going to that race even when we were running the Maverick. The track was like a skating rink. The jet cars leave so much soot on the track even after clean-up, even on the throttle stop our car will be moving around. Would rather save the car. I know it is the week before the Division Race, anyway of moving the date or run the jet cars after the bracket racing is done? I have heard the car count has been down for this race in the past.

Just my opinion.

See you at the banquet.
