Re: Maple Grove Nat`l event questions.
Funny you should ask. I actually contacted NHRA about this yesterday. I asked them to let Stock run class on Friday like we used to do at Etown and Maple Grove regularly when we had 100 cars. Heads-up muscle car racing in front of the crowd, easy to understand, wheelies, no breakouts, performance based first to the finish wins! It would help entice contingency sponsors as well because the current Thursday format does not. Last year they generously gave us 4 qualifying sessions, 1 on Friday morning before eliminations. Then Stock can run 2 rounds Saturday and 4 rounds on Sunday. Honestly after two rounds each sportsman category takes about 5-8 minutes to run so the 4 rounds Sunday would be a breeze and the other categories would likely be 2 rounds on Sunday. I will let you know when I get a response.
