Re: 1/4 vs 1/8 mile Dragstrip's
Dave, not sure what IG is, or which event Woodburn ran as 1/8th mile, but it seems that most of the "small tire, power adder" type events in Div. 6 run 1/8th mile. This type of racer seems to not minding having to blow up engines, lift, change lanes, or the occasionally crash or bang into the guardrail, so I imagine the shortening of these races is to help reduce the amount of crashes, oil downs, injuries etc, when guys try putting 2000 HP down on 8 1/2" tires, or radials, on un prepped tracks.
