Absolutely, the guy in charge was fired, and applications are being taken for the position. Purses will be sweetened next year to help make up for it.

Gene, why not move the pull to an established, seasoned, track? Something similar to what Dennis does with the TS event.

That works for ts because its a 2 day event. Would be really hard for spectators and vendors to make a mid day move. Especially when people start boozing during the day.

I see your point and it's definitely valid. I'm not contending it.
What I've noticed is the drag racing is falling off every year. There were a slew of pullers there this year. I'd think you'd cater to the pullers a little more to keep the event going.

I'm not saying its its impossible. But if it was set up in 2 different locations I could see drag racing taking even more of a hit when it comes to fans and vendors. Imo

Now if there was a grader and roller sitting there, and they didn't use it, that would be all on them. But I'm guessing that's not the case here.

Thanks ! I was on a good run and thought , yeah I am going to get him until it popped then he went screaming past . I was hoping someone might have a video closer to the starting line or mid track that would show it. The truck felt like it was on a mid 9 sec pass.

Go hate somewhere else, non-puller. You're obviously still mad at Gene over old bones. Lame.
