off subject, but I read that about track owner/crews a lot. I feel very fortunate that our track is very friendly, prep well, and has always been an all around great experience - for over 30 years. Cordova Dragway :)
It's a bit different when you end up dealing with a city bureaucracy and their lawyers who won't go by their own written laws, and they collude with other tracks to coerce or downright threaten people who have no dog in the fight to use their leverage to kill anything moving forward to increase the use of the dragstrip.
I could type for 2 hours and not hit even the high points about how filthy CART was. Just FILTY.
I detest politicians. I'm related to a couple of them. Working with them is impossible unless you are a boot licking quisling.
Yep, I'm not a fan of owing to any track much any more. BTDT.
