Re: Cedar Falls Saturday Sept. 17th

What's complaining going to get ya? A bad day at the track is a bad day at the track.

At least going out after was fun. It's hard to argue with $2.25 Captain Cokes.

Tri-State is a nice-enough place. However, on the 17th it was closed. I think that Cedar Falls was taking on both loads of dragsters.

The reason they do that is because the street tire cars scrape the VHT off of the track. The track managers don't like to spend money on VHT if they don't have to. If they keep you off the track with street tires, they are saving money and time in their eyes.

They wont have to worry about that for long. I heard a lot of bitching, and I think a lot of those people wont be back.

If you're doing a big burnout with street tires, you should be kicked off the track anyways. I don't think that was much of a problem there except for the white boy with the goofy-ass Civic 4-door running 17's. I'm surprised he didn't get linched, there was some serious rednecks down there.
