Two suggestions here.......I know the tracks are "seperate entities" but.....why not have a two day ticket at say $30.....might get a few more people to attend both......especially being a holiday weekend and Orlando could use the help!
Secondly, why not let the strictly stocks run first and let the FUPS race be the main event and last event of the evening........and the ST STK's dont put down any more fluid than the emods, trucks or super stocks......

Just a couple of thoughts......

Sounds like great ideas Fred. I just feel bad for the Strictlys running last ever week almost.

I agree a 25 or 30 dollors for both night might get some extra people to come out to both shows.

Those are great ideas... I think that may bring people that might go to just one or the other show... So as to eliminate any confusion, just make sure that the employees at both track know this at the start...

Have a great day all and I hope that both Orlando and New Smyrna have great events full of cars and people....

As for the Strictly Stocks, they almost have to be run last. Not so much because of dropping fluids, as much as shedding debris around the track. Nuts, bolts, tire carcasses, etc....

I agreee that they have some good entertainment value, but they just leave too much behind sometimes.

Hey Jerry.. Evidently you haven't seen the Lates, the supers, and the trucks lately... ROFLMAO...

Have a great night all...
