Kim, it was great meeting you guys. Hanging out with you guys was a blast and very educational!
We will have to make a habit out of that Italian restaurant!

Maple Grove is a great track!

The staff is the best as far as I'm concerned.

We will be back next year!

I don't post much at all or want to say anything negative but I agree with the with the original post. I worked hard to make my stocker a 1 under car. I've tried to run this race multiple times and nationals with class. Class constantly gets dumped. The dutch is about the heads up and putting the car on kill. I looked at the forecast and backed out of going.
I knew right away class would get dumped like last year. With the costs of traveling and not being able to use the car like I want I said forget it and put it for sale the Tuesday after the Dutch. Its already sold and off to its new owner. I wish him the best of luck. I will so miss the car.
I've decided to buy dragster again and support my local track for now.
Not hating on NHRA because I'll still run the divisional in TD or SC when it's in town.
I'm sure someday i'll do another stocker since my bucket list is class at Indy but it's been put on hold for now till I see a litlle effort not to kill races so quick.
