I thought the "All Others" gamblers race class would cover local racers??

If not, that seems a bit odd.

qcr is running a 2 day race friday and sat this week,paying $1000 each day..50.00 entry or 90. for 2 days...fyi!!!

No the power tour hasn't come yet, and as far as I know it's still going to come.

i think the "all others" was intended for the index classes.
i know i was hoping that the gamblers would have been open to all racers.

Really did'nt notice any traction problems there. Did'nt matter what lane but that just might be "The Judge" and its love affair with PRP! lol

555 cu in
turbo 400
3100 lbs........(yea..its heavy i know)

You think 3100 is heavy???

Hot Rod Power Tour is a completely separate event, and I believe already completed for this year. Power Tour is a week long car cruise, that moves each day. It's a great time, did it twice.

Hot Rod Drag Week IS coming to PRP on Friday, September 17. It sounds awesome, judging from some of the past years competition. The info for it and the schedule is on the link:
2010 Hot Rod Drag Week

haha! 3100lbs aint that heavy man! im the lightest car in my entire family at around 3150 with me in it. every one else is 3450lbs up to almost 4000lbs. now thats weight. and chuckster knows how that goes in a cutlass lol

3150 with me in it.

Now that's funny. What does it weigh without you in it, 3050?

3100

John, the mx track makes alot of duster during the week, the dust sinks down into the racing surface, if it is not cleaned or scrapped properly during the week, when the crew does the track prep, they will never get it right, the compound wont stick, ect... it has become a new issue this season. and when its not taken care of correctly during the week, it keeps the traction from being at its tip top shape. you can drag and spray and heat and do w\e you want to the track but if there is dirt underneath it will never be like it could be. and thats something my uncle has noticed this season. and has always worked on during the week... now we done have that. believe it or not rain during the week helps us out. keeps mx track dust free and if there is any layers on the track it atleast HELPS wash it away SOME. obviously there is still traction out there. but it will most likely never reach its full potential without the guro of glue

nick,
that is prob. the best explanation i have ever heard of the track prep.
its definitely not just a few hour prep before racing starts.
