Re: Just What We Need!
I have raced at tracks many times that had jr dragsters racing. Lots of them and other than an occasional issue there is rarely a problem...
Once in a while some parents get into some sort of argument over something that happened and it winds up in a fracus of some sort....Just like when my son was in little league and some over zealous parents did the same thing.
about the only "accidents" I have ever heard of is when a kid turned to sharply to exit the track and turned a car over once or twice...No kid that I can recall was ever hurt and no full size car was ever involved in any kind of accident with a Jr....
I was at Maple Grove last year for a weekend race and they had a huge filed of Jr's running along with their regular program.....on the same track....NO issues...
Englishtown has a separate 1/8th mile track form the big track...so there is no issues...
Numidia runs a pretty good Jr program on regular race days and there are no problems that I know of or saw when I was there...
Island dragway used to have a pretty good jr program on regular race days....other than the time they use up....and the occasional fracus as I mentioned between parents....that got handled by track management or security...no big deal.....No worse than any altercation over some foolish issue....
The sport needs any new people it can get.....
