With all this debate switching over to 8th from qtr for Pro and S/p to be like the Div 3 Indy finals is funny .Its I guess the goal to be competitive their since many tracks in 3 run 8th mile at their home track some felt disadvantage from GMP . Now the kicker is all those Champs then go to Pomona World finals and then race qtr mile . My goal is to do my best at my track .Everything is icing on the trip .

60 plus in pro from what some of the crew members were saying . 7 rounds in pro with no buybacks in all class's Sat due to quite a bit of down time . Was this fair to the Bracket class's ? There was some talk with racers suggesting GMP make the Jegs race a non Points race and just a bracket race . We were all on the same playing field Sat .

With three cars left on Saturday, the fastest one was a 7.30 car. 1/8th mile reduces the advantage of the 9 second cars somewahat. I think the class is going to be more competitve because of it.

That may happen The drag racing world is set on 1/4 mile that's the standard Even NHRA fall to 1/8. Yes it went to 1000 ft ! Only because of the speeds and saftey Once you lose your 1/4 track it never comes back , GMP was the only track left within 300 miles It was never about the quarter mile as to why racers stayed away it's the same issues you see today lack of communication lack of pay (for some) lack of any information , the changing of rules at will , it's left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing and no one in charge of nothing Here we are year #5 and it has only gotten worse a few say we have an owner who is a racer and understands us racers lol. Really. Not from the sound of some of you guys Whether it's 1/8 or 1/4 the same issues abound Now we have a great facility built for 1/4 racing a great heritage of racers a grand opertunity to seperate it self from all the rest decided at last minute to go 1/8 only Oo well it's here 1/4 mile is gone

Lol There is always going to be things at all tracks that need improved, but Gateway is ran better now and the last couple years than it has in over 10 years! My dad stopped coming to Gateway in the 90's because of how bad it was there and he is very pleased with what he sees for the most part there today. Like I said in another thread, most of the bitching about the track comes from guys who don't go there! The P.A system and the timeslip booth are the two things at the track that drive me nuts and have an effect on me at the track, but I have lived through it and have hopes of them both being fixed someday, but I guess it could be worse! I could have your negative attitude
