Shit why go to Richmond and get 1 pass in the 1/8 when you can go to NEDW and get 25 passes in the 1/8.

Richmond's track felt good last night, but it's just hard to get runs you pay 15 bucks for. At Dinwiddie, I at least get 3 runs and it's only a dollar more. Whatever, Richmond is definetly closer though.

I wish they would check cars a little better. Also i wish they would enforce "street cars only"...Those trailored cars always break and cause delays. I had a new compressor wheel on the 240 and never got to test it past the 1/8.

Ironic how 1 car threw a rod and you associate that with all trailored cars. In case you havent noticed, the past few street nights where cars broke were street driven and drove to the track. I have yet to see a Gunslinger "trailored" car break down.

PS- the car that broke drives his car around town and all. He chooses to trailor it to the track.

I got in 2 passes, once i heard that they were only running 1/8th of an mile, I backed up the staging lanes and just left....

btw, did watch my freind jason pull off a very NICE 11.94(about time he did) in his boost'd red hatch!!!!

I to was let down with the 1/8th mile choice to run after the break but Johnny had to do that for safety. The track got real cold after the 90 minute shutdown. Timmy's motor letting loose really made a mess. He only trailers the car in case of breaking it. It is one of the fastest ET wise driven cars I know of. He runs low 10's all the time and drives it all the time. He will be back im sure...

With VMP being closed Richmond has been swamped with cars the past few weeks and that has been the main issue. Cars will break no matter street or trailered. Holly's car is 100% streetable, I choose to trailer it because in racing its not IF its WHEN...

She you all soon!

The new Return road was smooth right??
