Your probably right Chuck. I'll just leave it at that and see how things work out. Just a reminder you need 30 rounds for super series also. Hopefully not many more rainouts. What do you think the reason for no buy backs. Only reason i ask is because last year the vote was 80-20 to have buy backs. And i'm sure would be the same this year. Why are they againts that? Just curious. It's a business and its all about what the customer wants isnt it?

Bill Prest Ill keep my eyes open for ya we will get Brandon in something.

I'm with you Ray, I hope the rain leaves us alone now. There wouldn't have been any adding to the SSS rounds yesterday. My preference is for buybacks also, to run for the better purse. But, if it's between having a second chance race, or loading up after a first round loss, I want to race. I think it's important to listen to your customers, but customers also have to be reasonable.

I am just frustrated Chuck thats all. I think no buy backs is a bad move, but I do also agree with you I would rather have something to do other than go home after 1st round. It is what it is, so ill drop it.

I think the rain is driving us all nuts Ray, along with the gas prices. Here's to hoping we can all blow off some steam on the track next weekend.

Don't forget, (assuming they charge their normal event pricing) Magnolia's entry fees will be $35 for box; $30 no box on Monday.

If you buy the 2 day (Sun/Mon) package at Dragway 42 you will only pay $10 more than the Sunday only entry fee. Put the $20 or $25 you will save towards your gas, buyback, or track dining expenses. Smile

But if you are already at D42 on Sunday, you won't add a single mile of additional travel expense to get to the Monday event. Wink

If you can make it into the final round on Monday at Dragway 42, you should still be home by 9:30 PM Wink
