Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
...so there I was, hovering above the little fella's change table, taking care of the perfect **** sausage he had prepared for me when it hit me, yes, that's right, the stink of ****, and it was odd how it smelled so much like this **** on here. It was like a divine intervention (holy moment, angels singing, that sort of thing for you guys that are stumped). I think I can speak for Chris and Jon when I say that our true intention is to try and increase car count and make this a better event all around. I wasn't close in Real Street this year, or nor will I be next year and doesn't really bother me, but the tire rules would play wonderfully into the hands of everyone in the Pro Class....that was beat by a tubbed car this year. You see, I checked back to page 362 of this post and it came to me, I believe that 1-3 this year was tubbed, and everyone else in that class would fall into a 10.5 tire class. Joe, you should be really pissed now, there'll only be 3 cars in pro class next year, you'll burn more nitrous in one pass than the combined prize money for that class. And Z, that would have handed you the win in 10.5.... You're right, index racing sucks...

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
4 cars would be good in prostreet and Doug would have won the 10.5 tire class not Curtis I like the index class thing just not in the shootout So if you true intention is to get more car at the track having another good weekend with index racing would get more cars at the track maybe some of these guys(who I don't know and nor do you)may come twice I think if you had divine intervention this would be clear to you

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
Thanks for the vote of confidence there Tim but i think Young Dougie might have
something to say about that considering he's running 9s now, Jerry the King has always matched my best times to within 100ths of a second, Jimmy got his car working on NOS and should be there as well. Tony H. can run mid 10 if he showed up. RocketPony is in the 10s and there's more time in his car and then there's all those other 10 and 11 second cars that will show up for the new class structure. A 10.5 class sounds like there might be some pretty close runs from top to bottom but hey we'll see what the masses want when the polls close.

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
Sorry for tooting your horn Z, but my point is that you were the only non tubbed car in the semi's, quite an accomplishment I might add. Who was the 4th tubbed car in that class this year Joe? I could only remember you, Paul and Dean that were actually running.

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
Mike and he was the reason Curtis got to 4th sorry Curtis because Mike was qualify 2 and did not qualify good 7th he had to meet Mike in the second round but Mike did not run Curtis had good luck but that's racing.This also made it so I did not get to race Dean. If we had tire class I would have got to race Dean and Curtis would have got to race Jerry this is good racing and racing gets people at the track Why Skinny are you so opposed to having another weekend

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
I am talking about having an index racing series all through the season, not just one weekend with a final at the end.
It wouldnt affect the pro class etc.
Skinney that is funny about the sh!t sausage, my daughter prepares at least two of those a day for me LOL!

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
Joe the street car shootout has been bring the car to the track for a number of years.We have had the real street class,a index class, for a good many years.This was for you guys to get better money and a bigger fan base(crowd). You need this class to bring the people.Yes people come to see who is the fastest but they also come to see little bobby run his TA in the shootout.Having another weekend as a real street weekend is going to hurt the shootout.

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
Fitz I am saying alot of poeple want index racing alot people want the 3 tire class make the shootout the three tire thing nobody is saying little boby can not run
Have the index weekend for all the racers that want it eveybody is happy I do not see the problem can someone explain it to me You guys talk about getting these new racers who are they?? We have to make what we got better and again why not
Chris you are not informed on what we talking about this is the NSMA site NSMA runs the streetcar shootout one weekend a year heads up racing two classes prostreet and real street 12.5 and slower Alot of poeple on this site are at the track every weekend racing the tracks 4 bracket series 8 weekend a year
The series are Saturday gambles eveybody but in $10 the winner get the money and the piont for each round If you go out in the first round you can buy back in for $10 but you do not get points most cars races this
Sunday three classes a street class for new and slower racers. superpro 11.99 and faster and pro is 11.99 and slower in pass few years there has not been car enough to have Pro and S/Pro soo it is one class for racing but the points separate YOU can run in these class with anything any tire just pass tec This not the mainland not alot of cars index racing is not going to work here like there unless you can tell me something I do not see about it

Re: 2007 Drag schedule?
All these slower guys they are talking about can come out and bracket race any weekend they want and have just a good chance to win as anybody.Thats why i think if we have index racing in the shootout and suddenly a bunch of cars show up.I don't think so.
