Mother Nature Strikes Again!!

This is shaping up to be quite the season at the track...
-
oh gezuz christ.... and in 4 hours, if you really wanted, I bet you could make 15 passes. It's not like you're spending 2 hours in the lanes waiting for your turn to race.
Might be out there, might not (for street legal). would be looking at 4 straight days off work...probalby won't try and swing that one.

I think I'll be in Sioux Falls. Yay for Thunder Valley!

So youre going to spend more money to do the same sort of thing, including a 200 mile drive or whatever it is from here to sioux falls.
Or you can go for a cheap 15 bucks and travel 5 miles.
Sounds like a no brainer.

Support those that support you. Sioux Falls puts on a great show and everyone is always supportive of what we do when we are down there.
Unlike you guys we actually need track prep to make it even worth the time and gas spent on beating the fuck out of our cars. Might as well go race the import day in Sioux Falls that Saturday, instead of dealing with the BS of trying to hook up @ interstate and then only racing for 3 hours if we're lucky.

Moving the date in such short period of time is really going to get people upset, i have been planning on the may 21st event for the past 2 months, now i don't know if i can make it up there in time after school. :mad:
People would be less upset if there were more than 4 events, because you wouldn't have to get so upset because there would be several more opportunities!
We are making the track money, more track days equals more profit

sounds like people are kinda fed up with this track? well when it is only open 4 times a year for street cars, i see where everyoen is coming from!
HOMER, y dont u step up and give us more track days?
edit what about a HELMET? is that absolutely needed?
people are saying that it isnt a big deal? so do i need it or not? -
Four street legal days a year isn't so bad. People can always race in the bracket series and run sportsman or trophy class as well.
BIR didn't even have the street legal drags until a couple years ago. You'd just have to take a Friday off from work and go run the Test & Tune if you wanted to make a bunch of passes. The bracket series was the thing to do there if you wanted to run your car. Saturday's you would get 3 time trial runs and then your elimination runs on Sunday for $35 in trophy class.
Also at BIR the street legal drags are on a Wednesday night starting at 5pm and ending whenever the sun goes down. That time really changes towards the end of the season... so you may only run for 3 hours or so. The cost there is $20. If you really wanted to beat the hell out of your car, you could still get in 15+ runs in those 3 hours though.
If you can't figure out your car in 4 or 5 runs you are either a really bad driver, the car is running like hell and shouldn't be at the track, or you better go back to work on your suspension and tires and make it hook up better.
There are a lot of people on this forum that need to quit the whining and enjoy the fact that they do have a track around here they can race at. There are plenty of other places you could be living that are a long ways away from any 1/4 dragstrip.
