haha, ya.. but since I drive an amazing gas guzzler, and I live in Clearwater.. even though I would prefer bmp, I couldn't make it their. So Sunshine Speedway is the only track I have to race at, and I know lots of people who says its the same way for them.

they need to pull out the tractors and make it a 1/4. 1/8th is worthless.

I've said it way too many times...
build a fast (i.e. quick) car and you'll understand how enjoyable an 1/8th mile race can be..

and for the millionth time.. they can't make it a 1/4 mile again (yes it used to be), because there isn't enough shut down room for a full quarter..

and for those who say good riddence, i'll remember when your crying about not having any place to race and the drive to BMP when Sunshine is gone..

Sunshine is okay. I have only watched the races there. I made the drive down to BMP in about 45min. I had a half a tank of gas when I left my house, I made 20 or so runs at Track Day and left with a quater tank left. I'm sure you could make it down to BMP. Although I've heard the lines for Test and Tune and 1320 are hella long. I say the city just buy some land and build us a 1/4 mile track isntead of building townhouse oceans along the highway. Just my opinion.
