Everyone has there opinion as to how things should run. Unfortunatly it is impossible to make everyone happy when planning a series or for that matter doing anything.
The bottom line is that the desision on the dial in matter has been made. Not by Wayne or Scott but by Lebanon Valley. They are the ones hosting so we need to play by there rules. Scott has made it very clear that the lines of communication are being kept open on other matters. He has been nice enough to offer a phone number that you can call. If you dont post with a real name or call in person how do you expect anyone to contact you are take your opinions into consideration.
You say tha this series is a constest to see who has the most money. I have to ask have you met either Wayne or Scott? I dont think racing is about money for either of them. They are just committed to the sport and to the class of Top Dragster racing. Neither of them are getting anything out of this other than a series to race in just like the rest of us. If you have been racing as long as you say you should know that going fast is about a lot more than just money.
When you referred to the "other track" I would assume that you are referring to Epping. in not such a subtle way. Not that you have a reason to be subtle. They worked hard and put together a very successful series of races last year. They are making it even better this year. They are great people and great racers and Wayne has made it clear that this series was scheduled in a way to let racers who choose to be able to run both. I ran all of there races last year and had a blast doing it. I intend to run as many Epping races as my budget will allow this year also. That being said, they also had people early on last year who didn't agree with all of the rules. If you read the rules carefully they do not follow IHRA top dragster rules to the lettter either. The rules are set to best fit what works for that particular series. Every track has the right to do things in there own way. As long as this is made clear to the racers in writing what the rules are. We as the racers have the choice to participate by the rules or not participate.
Best of luck with your combination. Hope you choose to participate
We are lucky enough to live in an area with two great top dragster series!!!
CAN'T WAIT UNTILL MAY!!!!
