Stock Eliminator already at quota for E-town

Superfan1 · 04-23-2012, 05:19 PM

With 5 weeks to go before the entry deadline; Stock is already at quota (64) for Englishtown. The alcohol classes are not running this year at E-town, so you would think that the quota would be higher. The Super Stock quota is 90 because they have class eliminations. It seems to me that the Stock quota should at least be 80. Hopefully the NHRA will raise it.

They're trying to break up with us but they're letting us down easy, wont be long now. I hope I make it back in time to enjoy a few more years. It's quite sad but I guess all good things come to an end.

Bill, I'm hoping they raise the quota too....

I only have 3 grade points.
I live 30 minutes away....
so it's very close to home for a National Event.

You will still need 4 points to get in if they raise the quota.

Only until the quota opens up for three. There was a rule change I believe. If it closes at 4, than add more spots, if 3 can get in than its open for them too! Might be confusing. So really if they add spots a person with one grade point could potentially get in if it was full at 3 (or any number)

They need the extra acre Alcohol would have taken for the Traxxis radio car display!

This is a metaphor saying "We dont need your money we take enough already. "

Can't take that many cars at Englishtown because of the banker hours the township puts on the track. Even though there is an airport 30 feet away that flies all day and night..

Bobby, I am very familiar with the curfew; but in the past the Stock quota has always been higher and, in the past, they ran both alcohol classes which they are not doing this year. Where is the logic?
