Scott,

Are we planning on running this 1/8 or 1/4 mile?

Lew Silverman · 09-27-2013, 10:00 PM

David, I think that race is going to be a 1/4-mile event, just like the race scheduled for Virginia Motorsports Park later this fall. The second FMSP race is an 1/8-mile.

I hope you and your Folks can make it!

SCOTT TILLEY · 09-29-2013, 12:50 PM

This race is scheduled to be a 1/4 mile race. How many of you would rather run this as a 1/8 mile race?

Thanks
Scott

running low on fuel!! eight mile please. I know of two cars who balked at showing up because of 1/4 mile racing and shutdown concerns

bert powell · 09-30-2013, 09:18 AM

I prefer 1/4, but will be there regardless.

Tabitha Draughon · 09-30-2013, 10:22 AM

This race has also been 1/4 mile & this specific one has been advertised all year as 1/4 mile so I think that needs to be stuck with. I realize last year that we changed the shootout race to be run on 1/8 mile instead of 1/4 mile but it was 8 racers who voted on that & the race was also run later at night. I know we race at Fayetteville all the time but shutdown isn't really a big issue in my opinion. See everyone there Sunday!

I'm thinking of coming down early and making a weekend of it. Does anyone know which track in the area races on Saturday this week? Coastal Plains looks like they have a big race on the schedule, but are also making a Test-n-Tune available Saturday as well. Any other ideas for a "Double-Header"?

Thanks!

Lew

We will keep it a 1/4 mile race. I just wanted to make sure that most wanted this as a 1/4 mile race. I have heard that some running 145mph and more have a stopping concern.

Lew, you might want to try Dunn Benson. They are having a bracket race and that is on the way to Fayetteville.

Saturday
Oct. 5 ET Bracket Race
Southern ET Bracket Series with FMSP

Thanks

According to Facebook, Dunn-Benson has cancelled their bracket race for Saturday.
