Everyone is going about this the wrong way.

Slow or fast everyone is welcome at the track. Ya hurst your right watching a slow car going down the track isnt always fun....but I bet if you ask that driver in the car if they are having a good time most likely they will say yes.

Thats what this sport is supose to be all about, either fast or slow as long as the driver (not the spectator) is having fun.

I would much rather see a slow import at the track than seeing a slow import on the street doing dumb shit and putting alot of peoples lives in danger. Slow or fast off the line these imports can get up to well over 100 mph on the streets (may take a tad longer than a domestic but they can do it) Do you really want to be driving with you wife and kids with someone (anyone domestic or import) doing a flyby at 100+ mph weaving in and out of traffic? And dont put this all on imports guys, I see alot of domestic cars that have trouble breaking into the 14's too. Again it boils down to having fun and thats whats it all about.

I know this sounds weird that a mainly domestic race shop is sticking up for imports but there is no reason we cant all get along.

Tracks are closing down left and right around the country thanks to the slowing economy and lack of paticipation. Racing is frowened upon during this economic down turn and especially with all the tree hugging hippies out there wanting to take our gas engines away (hmmmm.....wonder how we are gonna make battery powered cars faster? More batteries )

Think back to the 70's when the gas shortages came into play. Back then before that happened you could go to the dealership and buy a car with a 500+ cu in big block straight off the show room floor! Those days are obvisouly gone, but I see the trend starting to begin again. Ford has leaked rumors that they may eventually do away with the 8 cyl motor, making most of their new cars 6 cyl turbo engines....what is a domestic car gonna be called when that happens?

I am waiting to see how many of you "domestic" guys actually show up. Talk, talk, talk yet when race day comes around I pull into the track and no one that said they where going to be there is there! With all the hype and talk going on out there in the internet world this even on the 17th should be hell of fun with a shit ton of people there, thats if the people who say they are gonna show up actually do.

Support your local tracks....trust me you will look back on this someday and realize why you no longer have a place to race safely if everyone stays in this mind set.
