I think other ppl should show up to, they say they can't compete at import faceoff bc they r to slow, then they can't come to Sikeston bc they ??? Sikeston will be full street cars, no drag cars allowed. It will be a good time for sure either way.

too fast for IFO?? there are cars there as slow as 20 seconds..

If the payout was a little better would that entice anyone to make it down?

Mike, I see your point, but we only have 1/8 mile tracks around here, so we have to do with what we've got. The thing about your argument is that the track will be the same for everyone. You can't tell me that your entire timeslip is made up from 660-1320 ft. If your first 660 sucked there's no way you'd turn that 10.9xx. Also, I'm not sure if CRV and V8this realize exactly how far you'd have to travel to get there (almost 300 miles).

I wish more could/would make it out.

I never said anything about being to fast for IFO. But that is a long haul to get to kc from southeast mo, and Stl even. What like a 4 hour drive for Stl to kc?

1. 1/8th mile is not for fwd's.

2. there will be like five 13 second or slower hondas there. doesnt sound like alot of fun. at import faceoff there is a couple hundred cars.
