Thank you to all involved in getting this problem resolved.

I'm trying to think of another business that says, "PLEASE don't spend your money with us." ("please" added for effect.)

(except for Kraft French Onion Dip, which recently changed their recipe to something white, runny, and generally horrid without even saying "New and Improved!" on their packaging. But I digress.)

Mike, don't know you and I've never met you, maybe your a nice person; however I don't think you will be missed @ this event. We started a petition and by the sounds of it NHRA has reviewed it and answered the call. If you want the grade point needed for entry lowered, why don't you petition NHRA or call someone instead of just bitching and constantly posting negative posts and/or comments. I doubt you will since it looks that you would rather complain instead of doing something about it One requires a lot less commitment, kinda like your presence at the track! I would like to send out my appreciation to all involved. C u in G-Ville! Class racing in March, can't beat it.

that makes no sense when there is still 4 weeks left to enter. It should continue to step down just like every other class, I would think.

We all play on their court, so that means they make the rules. Every one has gotten used to being able to get into national events with as little as one grade point, so they don't support the divisionals, now when a class fills up and it takes more than one or two grade points, everyone calls foul. I agree, that times are tough, but we still have to play by the rules. NHRA at least raised the quota, so others will be able to enter. Do I think that it will fill up at 80 with needing a 4 or higher grade point, No.

I've only been in the game for a few years Mr. Zaskowski.

Now that we got that out in the open.....:rolleyes:

Then you should know Beard's total body of work. A true class racer.

Re: Petitioning NHRA to Open SS @ Gainsville
 

I don't think you will find anyone else here that thinks Micheal Beard adds on negative posts or comments. He makes his living centered around the sport of drag racing. He is a very accomplished racer. I am sure he has won more races that just about anyone that posts on here. What you construe as negative comments from him are just his way of saying what the majority of people are thinking.

Re: Petitioning NHRA to Open SS @ Gainsville
 

Thats funny, never seem to see any of todays "accomplished" racers commenting in such ways. If Mike is as accomplished as you say he is, you think he would have learned about composure and respect along the way. If people have a thought, post it properly, with conviction and facts, not in a uneducated rage like a five year old. Everyone who reads these posts and doesn't know peoples personalities off the website might construe some individuals as simple minded and just passing time, without real motives to inform, help or learn.
