The majority of the STK and SS cars are from NC and SC. Is it the 1/8 Mile racing that's keeping racers away?

I would not have expected a very big turn out for that event. It's an Un tested venue. Most hardcore NHRA guys won't race 1/8th mile. You can't expect racers to travel long distances for the meager purse that is posted. The owner/promoter will have to put on several more of these type events and entice the racers with bigger pay outs. To make that happen they have to put butts in the seats. If he makes it a 1/4 mile facility it might get better turn out. The weather could be a small factor too. Those numbers are similar to a 1/8th mile IHRA event in that area. Best of luck to all that made the trip there. I would have liked to go but just too far and real busy at work.
