What about the LEFT lane racers that was sent down the track Saturday evening under "unsafe" conditions ?? ---- I for one was very lucky not to wreck again at National Trails in the LEFT lane -- Pulling into the burn out box , we were shut down while the track was worked on in the left lane ,, I expected a safe track but what I got was "go ahead everything is fine " and I know they were attempting to get S/G complete before the storm came but to send us down with water still coming up was unaceptable ,,, I lifted 3 times and 3 times ( stupid me ) attempted to complete the run ( I had .02 off the line , caught my oponnet early was in front and had to lift due to track conditions or wreck !!! )-- YES it was the right decision but should have been made much earlier ,,,,, spending my hard earned $$$ on NHRA racing expecting a safe track and getting what we got at National Trails is an unaceptable product and I question my sanity to even go back to that place again ( which has had the same issue for a number of years ).

AM I grateful for getting my car home in one piece , Yes ,,,,,, but feed up with racing on marginal and unsafe tracks !
