It seems to me that the Stock quota should at least be 80. Hopefully the NHRA will raise it.

Can't take that many cars at Englishtown because of the banker hours the township puts on the track. Even though there is an airport 30 feet away that flies all day and night..

Bobby, I am very familiar with the curfew; but in the past the Stock quota has always been higher and, in the past, they ran both alcohol classes which they are not doing this year. Where is the logic?

They do have all 3 Super classes this year. This has not been the norm.

Bobby the curfew wasn't imposed by the town.It was mandated by chicken *hit judges who bent to the will of nitwits who bought homes in the area of a racetrack.



63 more to go.

If it's a noise issue, they should mandate that all the racers use mufflers, either you are there to race or make noise. I'd prefer to race with mufflers rather then to not race at all. One of the major problems with Westhampton's closing was the noise rules put in place by the town.

Take a look at this article in Competition Plus about pit space issues at Houston.
Pretty obvious why the space problem continues to get worse every year.

The pro pits should be for the teams racing professionally, not for the hospitality areas controlled by a handful of prominent owners and sponsors

Could not agree more!
