There already is, 4x4 SS, Tim won last year and a lot of us are older, we just gotta quit letting the kids play in there.

The loop got moved from the end of the strait, to the downside of the wall ride, the signal was just too weak at the strait.

at some point either the triple a mains are gonna have to go or some classes will have to be dropped....seems 18 hours stretched into 24 into 30 into 36...why not make all rounds single a mains till the big finally of a two day triple a main double point day or something...every year i watch another class or two pop up... or get sub divided....which in turn offers another sign up but probably removes at least two racers who cant commit to another three hours...and zach 120 entries doesn't = 120 people...it equals 60-80 people running multiple classes... you sell more hotdogs with more people than you do with more mutliple class entries....it's the one class people you have eliminated..that dont wanna wait 5 hours between runs...me i just dont want to spend 18 hours running 6 batteries....ok maybe 8 batteries includiung two 10 mintue pratice session over 4 hours..

This I know... the way I see it, there was 173 ENTRIES for the opener, so according to your math, thats around 90ish people, now add in the fact that this is the final round, with a bad ass track, we may get some more people, maybe 100 or so. NOW add for some plain customers, ie. not racing, racer's family members, spectators, you get the picture, 60-80 people signed up to race still might come out to 100+ people throughout the day....

And the only reason we don't have a hot dog class is Gould would DOMINATE!
