Toc rescheduled

Alex,
We can visit with you when at the Moser (900miles one way).
I really think they needed to finish this before the 2010 season began.
I'm just glad they made a decision.

At least the moser shootout pays $500 to first round loser. You have to get to 8 cars to get one cent in the TOC. And the first 3 years the Moser shootout was held at Rockingham and Dinwiddie.. Its also held in August, and everyone has been out and sorted out their stuff by then. You don't lose 2nd round because a water plug fell outta the block and they shut you off on the line, like happened to me in 2000.

Michael,
You need to complain to your engine builder instead of IHRA about the water plug.LOL

I don't need to complain to anyone, stuff happens first time on the track of a new season after just puting two race cars back together. I actually had delays getting to Rockingham barely got there in time for first round, unloaded the car and made my first run of the year in the first round of the shootout. No time runs or nothing.

Heck the other car was in the trailer and wouldn't even fire, I had to take the body off and figure out what was wrong with it before I bothered to buy an entry for it..

So let me get this straight, they're gonna make everyone have to drive back to Rockingham, have a national event, the allstar races and the TOC all in one weekend?! Isn't that how we got in this mess in the first place?.. Whats the definition of insanity? Attempting to do the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
What happens if it gets rained out again? And what happens to the prize money if IHRA goes into bankruptsy between then and now? Not to mention this year Rockingham was on the same weekend as the div 3 race at Indy. I just don't get it, nothing seems to make any sense to me anymore.

The Spring Rockingham Nitro Jam was originally scheduled for 2 days - Sat. & Sun. The letter we got says that the TOC will be held on Friday. I guess the ROC will be held then also but I don't believe it was actually mentioned.
