I doubt anyone would need to mark their calenders, it'll be embedded in their permanent memory bank.

Jason I know you said if this years event was big enough you may be able to secure a spot for the race to be on tv. Any news about this maybe happening for next years race? I think it would be great for all of us and great for the sport. This event big steps in the right direction for the sport. thanks

that mustang won the burnout contest by far, *** that bike.

Jason, the bracket class is just to big. It gets seriously boring and both days i left during it. Those seem to be the cars that break a lot and cause a lot of time wasted cleaning the track. That and its just to many damn people. I think it should be limited to the people who dont qualify in their classes and a limited number of people also, a number that can be determined. I mean i watched like 3 cars in a row blow up or leak fluids and that took time to check and clean the track that could have been spent racing. You dont see that in the other classes. Just saying. Hopefully next year i can be there with something to race

I'm going to have to agree with Slowmatic about the bracket class. I ended up leaving before finals were over because of how long the bracket races were taking and the fact that it was getting colder and colder. I am extremely disappointed about leaving early, but loved the event otherwise.

How about any chance of starting eliminations before 3pm on the second day ?

I loved it being a 2 day race but getting home at 4am sucked because first round was at 3pm and final round was at 1030pm. . .

We'll be there again next year . .

I think next year we are going to do 3 round of Qualifying on Saturday, but move them just a bit earlier like 1pm, 3pm, 5pm. And not do any qualifying on Sunday.

Then on Sunday do 32 car fields instead of 16s. (what does everyone think of that?) It adds one more round, but we can start them earlier. Then start elims at 12noon, 2pm, 3:30pm, 5pm, and finals at 6pm.

I am also going to put an ET limit on both ET bracket classes stating they must be 14.99 and faster to enter the event. So we can pass on some of the slow boring cars, and make this event even more "elite". It has gotten more and more elite every year. I am also looking to add an 11.50 index class next year too.

The bracket cars are neccessary so fans in the stands have something to look at while waiting for the heads-up classes.

We are making it better and better each year, and really appreciate the input and suggestions guys.
