Date Posted: 17:52:38 05/08/04 Sat Author Host/IP: 205.188.116.195 I'm glad to see that you guys have increased the money for the remaining races. We had a great time last time, but with the dew on the track it was kind of scary in the semi's, which is why we and Bud Morgan split the purse instead of running the finals. I know you guys want this series to grow, which is why I am posting this response. I don't know how the other racers feel, which is why I am posting this message, but I wish that the race could be started a little earlier. I believe that the way the race is handled, and the time in between round is great. But, we feel that if the race would have started earlier that the fans would have got to seen some side by side action in the outlaw class this past April. Bud and Tony went up in smoke in the semi's, and we (Mike Brown) almost lost it on the big end in the semi's. We've got two round of qualifying, and the race to run, yet we didn't start running til after 4 p.m. Later into the night, when the final rounds were being run, there were fewer and fewer cars going down the track, which allowed the track to get cooler and the dew to settle. Also, I could be wrong, but I personally did not see the track personnel prep or spray down any track bite after the race had started. The launch pad was sticky, but as soon as we got off the pad the track didn't have much bite after that. I'm not trying to step on any toes, or piss anyone off, but I am trying to give my opinion on helping the series grow. I believe the payouts are headed into the right direction, but if you want to see some of the bigger name guys in the outlaw 10.5 racing, then the track prep is what is going to bring them and keep them coming back. Yea, we ran some 4.90s in April, and Tony blasted off the 4.83, but I'm sure the fans would love to see some 80's and 70's all the time. If the track could hold these numbers, the car count would definitely increase, and so would the number of fans. No harm intended, and I am just trying to throw my 2 cents your way to help this series grow. See you guys later. On another note, I think you will see a few more cars from MS in June.
