[QUOTE=THE LEGEND;253499]Tom,
Don't bash Rockingham and Darlington. They have that old school charm. couple coats of paint and a little asphalt and they are good as new. You are just spoiled.

I disagree about the Big Money races to a certain point.
I went to Piedmont this weekend
I spent $520 on entry fees and $240 Buying Back. I won $200 in round money.
Yes I double entered.
If I was at ZMAX I would've spent $610 for 2 cars (same as double entering)

.
Chip you didn't miss anything with that 4 wide deal. Didn't bash darlington but the Rock....??? You have to admit it needs more than a "Little" of anything. Ronnie and Bill are trying hard at Darlington in spite of the economy and if they spruce it up and go NHRA with a points race it will be great. The quarter mile thing is a big plus to me because as I get older ,and damn I am, 1/8 mile is too quick in a fast car. John Force must not have got enough attn because he was actually walking around the sportsman pits Saturday and I never saw anyone ask for his autograph..go figure.
