IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

Division 2 Heat Wave Summit Pro-Am Tour Presented by Mr. Gasket and Thunder Jam Events at Carolina Dragway Rescheduled for One Week Later - September 19-21, 2008

Are you kidding me? I understand not wanting to conflict the new Charlotte NHRA Nat'l event, but putting it on top of IHRA's own Nat'l at Toronto? They already rescheduled the rained-out Mooresville Pro-Am on top of the Milan Pro-Am. I try to support as many events as I can, but it makes it tough when they schedule on top of their own events!

Mike , they're just trying to save you gas money .

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

Hey Micheal,
How about you going to Toronto? You usually kick butt at Jackson! I bet I could even pass a collection jar in the pits and get you some gas money for going North!

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

This is great for me, since the previous week was on top of both local bracket points weekend and an NHRA divisional. Now I can go get smoked in H/R - see you there.

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

2 National event wins in Toronto in four starts versus 3 wins and 1 r/u at Jackson in two years.... I don't know! Jackson's a shorter trip. See what y'all can do for a collection, and we'll talk. ;-)

Rollins - "That was Easy!" :cool:

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

It seems like everyone I race in NHRA S/ST went to Staples this year...on the other hand brackets has been reasonably enjoyable in the W-L ratio. Anyway I really like the track and wish it wasn't 20 miles from a hotel and Applebee's. It's probably the only IHRA race I'll go to this year.

Dear Duck, just a little food for thought. There is a very nice Malibu(former Wayne Gooden car) sitting in my enclosed trailer just waiting for a motor. It could be done in time for a trip down south later in the summer or fall and I think you remember what happens when JOE COOL puts his mind to something. It might be better for you to go North. See ya soon(LOL), Mike

Yup. Believe it or not, I've still got your #35 decals in the back of the truck, in case I run into you somewhere. ;-) Oh, and I get asked about the Duckbrella everywhere I go (when it rains at least). I always tell people that no one is smiling when it's raining at a race track, but the Duckbrella normally gets them to crack a smile.

Get to work! It'd be good to see you out again.

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

Send me 5k or find me a sponser and we will be out in a week or two. (LOL) Mike. Hope to see you soon, take care.

Michael you going to Mooresville? You just might see "Joe Cool" their driving a car with two extra doors & with an engine that has two less cyl! ;)

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

Yup. H*ll, I *have* to, since IHRA rescheduled the Mooresville rainout on top of the Milan Pro-Am, which I would've gone to otherwise, but now I'd have to pay $100 to transfer two entries to two different tracks. :rolleyes: Which brings us back to the original point - why reschedule around other events, but put your own races on top of your own events?

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

Michael, trust me I'm not trying to be a smart ***, but have you asked anyone with IHRA what their reasoning was for stacking these events? There might be a sensible answer, check with whomever is in charge of making this type of a call. Mike

Re: IHRA Div. 2 - Carolina
 

It sure would have been nice if they moved the Mooresville rainout to Piedmont and made Piedmont a double...then there would be no conflicts and one less weekend of travel. You guys should have sounded off then maybe IHRA would have listened!
