The fact is there are not near as many class cars out west. Out west we can and do race ALL year long.Our off season is 2 weeks around christmas with the Hangover Nationals starting the season on New years day. With that schedule it is a little time to maintain the up keep or like myself you have a bracket car too. Now you have 2 cars to feed. At a summit series bracket race @ speed world this weekend there were 4 stock eliminator cars racing to get some practice. The sportsman final was Angelo Phillips L/SA vs Rick Unterseh O/SA.With the other cars going to the quarter finals in pro. Yeah we bracket race too for a race that paid $125.00 to win! So is it about the money??? REALLY???No one understands these cars much less want to race one. All i got in the lines was a bunch of bracket racers looking @ me like I had 3 heads.Asking questions like " A thermo quad?? Why dont you use a carb that works?? or I have only heard about these cars..Or You guys are crazy why dont you want to go faster for the money? All that effort in an ASPEN???? WTF? I try to explain the addiction, the fun and our purpose and history...but... it truly depresses me to the point where I just keep to myself and let them ask me what the letters on my window mean.
