Bowling Green has been extremely supportive of Stock and Super Stock, they've run a combo series for the last couple of years, with support from Comp Cams. The track prep has been pretty good too, and I honestly can't say that about every track we've been to.

Bowling Green hosts the big Buick event for a 3 day weekend, that's a independent group that has come back there every year for a really long time. So evidently Bowling Green is doing something they like, a lot.

The biggest problem with Bowling Green is it gets really hot in the summer, but then most places in the south do. The solution to that is to try for a date in April, May, late September, or October. The next problem is the fact that NHRA is the sanctioning body at Bowling Green. That actually could end up being a bigger problem than the heat in the summer.

If they can put on a couple of big foot brake bracket races at Bristol, then the two biggest obstacles to doing a big class event at Bristol, Norwalk, or Charlotte, would be the sanctioning body and getting the racers to "walk the walk" and show up.

I repeat......Bil Bader has shown interest in this in the recent past. NHRA does not own him.
