Wow, no dumbass reply to that one. Cat got your tongue again.  BTW, seeing you are reading everything I post. I'll be retired at the end of this month, more to come.  Keep reading my Broke Dyck & clueless post(s). Please, stop being scared & compete you pathetic old man; if I can do it, you most certainly can with all that knowledge.1980 Camaro Taking the Best Working Small Tire Shyt Box & making it Greater Than Before! 3000 lbs.

Same story at Northeast Dragway (Hertford NC) today, Fern. Maybe this gas thing will keep folks closer to home? Take care. Tom Worthington If it seems that bracket racing has gotten too expensive for you, maybe you are just doing it wrong. | |||

Could the reading and comprehension scholar clarify what he meant then? | |||

The thing is they paid the full purse and ran a quick program plus a gamblers race. I was impressed! | |||

On a different note, those of us who race and stay in hotels are getting hammered...the same rooms I paid 89 bucks a night for a year ago are now being quoted between $250 and $400 per night...at Bradenton this weekend I had to pay $239 per night for a Days Inn...at the New Years Nationals in January I paid $139 for my usual haunt, the Best Western Plus, Bradenton...they quoted me $250 per for this past weekend...this is unsustainable for me on a fixed income...sigh... | |||

You’re getting fuc’d, they’re price gouging, unless a big event was going on in the area which is common to raise prices considerably for. The local motel to the track I’ve stayed at for over a decade, raised their price $3. | |||

With the National and double divisional and the PBA masters tour here plus the BTS concert, (what ever that is), the hotel rates on the Strip have gone from average $200.00 to $1000.00 per night, and people are paying it. I can see why the AirBnBs are getting so popular, you can rent a complete house with pool for $1500 for 3 days. There is two of them just on my side of the street in my neighborhood. As houses go up for sale, they are being bought and turned into BnBs. | |||

"I just paid $274 total for three nights at a super8 in NC for the PDRA race there....." Funny...there is a Super Eight a bit further away from BMP but they quoted me $229 per night for last weekend....sigh... | |||

I checked into mom and pop motels and found two that look nice...one is 60 bucks a night starting and the other is 139 per starting...both a bit further away from the track but much better deals...we'll see how it works out next time... | |||
