and that's exactly why the sport will never get any bigger around here. seems that if the 'scene' isn't already huge no one wants to bother with trying to grow the movement. Plus, if no one will show up to the smaller events at 1/8 mile tracks, why would anyone ever decide to invest in lengthening to a 1/4? Mike, I know what you're saying about 1/8 being 'no fun', but it's all we got.

I just hope I can get a car there! I developed a mystery CEL last night...I'm betting O2 is outta whack.
