It is Byron

That is Jack Ditmar on the far left of the photo
Chitown on the far right of the photo.
I have a call into Ditmar and Ron Leak to see who the other 2 are.

I wonder how far away we are from bracket racing like this.
Could you imagine trying to lift and not breakout on 3 other cars lol.

Cool pics...may be de ja vu ....this is exactly what Bruton Smith wants to do, and he has the track to do it!

Nitro Joe Jackson · 07-04-2009, 10:20 PM

This raises so many questions... if it went this way.

Are you racing all three other people, or just the guy in the lane with your tree? If the former, how do you draw up a bracket like this? I mean, what's it look like on paper? Does CompuLink software understand this?

And then, just how does it work? You have to wait for three other clowns to stage? What does "courtesy stage" mean here? Does everyone have to go -pre- before anyone goes -stage-? I have to look across way over there to see if I can go in? And when do you get up on the chip? Again, I have to look all the way down the line? Ugh...

What if there's an ugly accident? Instead of someone breaking something and veering hard taking out just one other car, they can take out three other people?

Then, what about the shutdown/turnoff? Who goes where/when? Imagine all the parachute tangles that are possible. Hard enough to keep out of the way of one other person some times...

This seems like a real cluster to me.

I know you were joshing. But Bruton must think it has a chance, or why would he build the track that way??
