Today is 4/08 day!

So far, Gainesville has not impressed me with how they run the place. It was fine for the Gatornats but the 1x/month bracket racing? Are you kidding me? NHRA supposed to be promoting the sport and only bracket race 1 weekend/month? And the March event was basically a wash as they never ran a car down the track until near 5:00pm even though gates opened at 8:00 and no rain until about 2:00. And NOTHING from the tower about what was going on until near 4:00.

Rant over - wish I was closer to Bradenton!

Back to 408 day!!
I am old enough to remember that most drag racing tracks were built during the 60's and 70's (probably 50's was the start) because people needed an outlet not to race on the streets. With all the 1/4 mile tracks closing and the rise in "street take-overs" it seems as if history is repeating itself.
Anyway, off soapbox, and Happy 408 day to ya!
