another bad experience at speedworld[clubday]

[ASUSMC]

They put 13.5 on the ASUSMC's vert on club day....

The tech guy was VERY adament in telling me that if I ran faster than a 13.50 they would kick me off the track immediately. It was written on my back window and was told at the tech shed when I got my 13.6 timeslip to be careful.

I think it had to do with the Junior Dragsters being out there. Maybe there was an NHRA official out there and if they see a non-rollbarred vert run a 12 they might get in trouble or something

That is contrary to what Butch the race director told me. He said on normal race program yes the rules apply, but on club day he has no issue will letting you run better than 13.5. Butch is the Boss.

I wonder if that means I can go 9s before I get my chassis certed or my ET license?

That may be pushing it, but they let things slide on club days.

I'll prolly be licensed by the time we reschedule, anyway.

Butch seems like a very sincere guy. He took full accountability to the fact that Sunday did not go well. I will try to get something setup soon and see how the next event goes.

I to feel that They tried to put to much in 1 day. As for the kids, we need them involved with the sport because when they reach the age to vote and become lawers and such they will remember the fun they had with the sport! As for speedworld I feel they could have performed a better job with the running of the diffrent classes. They have to remember that that customer services is thier job as well as track prep and safety. I can understand that you can't make everyone happy but they could have came to us at the track and told us that due to the amount of cars,and the rain that they would try and make it up to us at a later date. They were probably some people that left mad and might not be back. Hopefully this won't happen.
