I dont understand the promoting/flyers here. Its been brought up before, and im bringing it up again. Why are there so many "big time grudge events" and no one ever comes? Probably because there's one every weekend! At 25 different tracks on the same day.

Last Event had hardly any cars.. Is that the same background with different words every time?

alot of the low numbers are coming from more than one event on the same day.
big tracks trying to step on smaller and so forth.

then their is poor marketing.
my event is October 16th (Octoberfest)

don't know what the numbers will look like,
but this will become an annual event so i would
definately be paying attention to the boards and the street.

A lot of the low car count issues are due to the stopping distance at bowman. It would be nice to see some promods and 4 second cars testing/racing at bowman but they don't come or come back. Plenty of em are in the area(SC, NC, &GA). So the potential car counts are limited from the start, imo.

IMO bowman shouldnt allow so many Grudge races, it seems like theyre having one every weekend..

There have been 4.90 street tire bikes that ran on that very same track.
I do believe shut down area will be a priority to Mr. Raymond but I doubt
that someone won't come up with another complaint. The good thing is
that he is listening.

Sometimes as business owners we do what pay the bills

4.90's on a bike is a whole different world than 4.90's in a 3000+lb car

I think it's an illusion. The picture was taken from the low side of the g-body shuffle.

Yea it did pretty good. Transbrake didn't wk on the first pass because I forgot to plug the solenoid bk up after I rebuilt the tranny. After I got it to work when I made another pass I could feel the car lifted too high so I got off the gas and busted the radiator.
