Z-MAX car count
Bruton builds a Palace and no cars.
NHRA needs to try Crate Motor cars ! The car count would be 100 or more, not 67. I know of 30 or 40 cars in the area. Some really nice cars! OK, beat me up ,,,,, |

Re: Z-MAX car count
Ken
not having super stock elim prob hurt and all the talk about the police harassing racers can't be helping the situation. A four day race at a facility that large shouldn't need to drop a class just my opinion

Yeah, No Super Stok was a bad move. As far as the police harassing, I have never had a problem in NC. Just one time that I caused. lol It's a super facility, I hate to see it not used. |

Re: Z-MAX car count
I don't understand not having Super Stock in the heart of Super Stock. I agree with the comments about not having problems with the security personnel. When we were there we stay three days and two nights inside the track. It was a party all three days. Cook-outs every where. Cool night to stroll through the pits and every security person you met was very cordial.

As I have mentioned before, there are no NHRA races w/in a reasonable tow to get grade points. There are 6 IHRA division races and 2 national events (no grade points required) in the state so everyone pretty much races locally. If Zmax had a national open and a division race it would surely help their car count as the locals would be able to get a couple of grade points and then we could run the national events. There are usually 300 cars at the division 9 race at Mooresville which is only 30 miles from Zmax (if that far) and I'll bet maybe 20% of those racers are there this weekend. That means there are a couple of hundred sitting at home watching on the computer like me. It's a shame we, the locals, can't support Bruton...I enjoyed it last year when they included super stock in the fun!

Re: Z-MAX car count
If the event does not reach the quota, you do not need even one grade point to enter.

Re: Z-MAX car count
Alan,
I was told you have to have 1 grade point regardless. If it was 0 I would've went. Chip |

Re: Z-MAX car count
I've been told you have to have a minimum of 1 also. Most guys/girls don't even have NHRA licenses anymore for this reason.
