Thumbs up Re: “Live” from the Class Racer Revival in St. Louis

Hats off to Tyler, Brian and the many people behind the scenes to make this event happen. Could not believe the traction that was there with the cold temp. The Mass Traction guys were awesome! Our whole group had a blast, and anyone who did not come definitely missed out. I will likely not see conditions like that again.The TB crew made it great for all.

Thanks to Tyler and Brian for creating a great event.

Track prep was second to none, and the entire event went off without a hitch.

Nice to meet and greet racers from the other divisions, and the comp people too.

I got to compete in 4 races in 4 days with the Gremlin,2 races with the truck, and will have more fond memories of loosing than the winning rounds.

Twice the Gremlin was beaten by Patterson’s Copo, getting passed at 150 while I was on the brakes going 90.

Loosing today chasing Buth in the Ranger with the Gremlin. He dialed a 15.56 and I a 13.47.

Loosing the wheelstand competition to Lance Line(his was bigger).

Loosing in round 2 on the first race and having to lift when the wheelstand went awry but the track prep let me Dukes of Hazard it back into the center and out of harms way.

Having this all on Motormania TV made it an even more special experience. My wife got to watch from home.

Bobby Fazio did all those interviews which were great.

It was a privilege to go, glad I could, for those that couldn't you unfortunately missed out.

Eric

My car was inspected they looked everything over front to back from pedals to shifter. Every run was weighed. It was awesome that they where on the look out.

What in the hell is wrong with you active Stock and Super Stock racers? 74 Stockers and 54 Super Stockers. There should of been twice that many. I think there were more D7 cars than D4. Division 3 probably has over 200 active SS racers and 54 total from all divisions show up. These two young men put on a race that has something for everybody. One of the best track prep guys in the country, NHRA tech guys, centrally located on a really nice track. In a month Gateway is going to have a double points race where you get to race for a $1000 and I would bet there will be over a hundred Stockers and 100 Super Stockers. If we keep on not supporting these races there wont be any more of them.I don’t see any way Tyler and Brian didn’t lose money on this race.

Michael Beard tried this and couldn’t make it work because of low racer turnout. Wake up folks.
Easter weekend for us is not a good race weekend.

I do think it is a good thing for the sport and I would have tried to attend if I had a STK or SS legal car. To Brett's point I would agree, racing is lighter on Easter weekend at most tracks and for those that still have little kids, spring break week is a bad week to go racing. I was on vacation with my kids in the Smokey Mtn's the whole week, scheduled back in October, for instance... It sounds like it was a great event and I hope they do it again next year!

ya had to look quick but we WERE there, Wednesday only, two Q runs, and for a short while we were in the wheelstand consideration, just behind Cory Hopkins, but quickly dropped down...after second Q, we had water coming out from somewhere (water pump, block, dunno)
Since, because of Easter we planned Wed/Thurs only and spend Easter with family in Kansas City
Since we couldn't diagnose problem nor repair before E1 Wednesday, we loaded up.

Also, we absolutely froze to death Wed AM; just can't take the cold & wind at my age

Soooo, very disappointed in our effort BUT what a tremendous effort put out by TB Promotions, I'm just sick about the area racers support for this in light of the EAST & WEST coast attendees, esp the Mandella crew and Zavala; Larry's interview hit my thoughts exactly, wasn't planning on coming but felt the need to support in some small way
Pit interviews were great, and video views were awesome
