We did exactly this at Bethany Mo. It did work. We had fifty some odd cars, and crowds ranging from 400, to 1000 each night. Why ain't it still open you ask? Because 4 to five people got their panties bunched up, because they weren't competitive, and caused so much trouble, I closed the track. It was not ever my living. I run a construction company for that. If I'd been sanctioned by NHRA, or IHRA, it would have still been open. It was just a pain to hear it every week-end, and I chose not to run. What it boils down to, is the owner won too much. That would not be the problem with an NHRA, or IHRA. But we had participation. Tried to do it at Eddyville, same people threw a wrench in it, and I backed away.
