BTW........nice times you have for that setup. Impressive.
Thanks.......

The closest I saw was an 11 sec field. That's why I wanted to post this. Most tracks have the sign ups as first come first serve. I've seen a few tracks auction off a few spots but for the most part if you get your name in early enough you're in.

If enough guys let more street car guys know, the odds of getting a larger field to pick from get better.
I'm pretty sure it's still 12.99 and faster cars to sign up. Looks like most tracks are accepting 400 entries.

Don't just watch......Get your name in. Worst that could happen is you get at least 2 runs in.

I obviously wasn't in contention as they picked a 9.xx second field when I went. But I did get to be on TV in one of the opening clips getting spanked by a 9 second car.

I think if enough people know about it, the better the chance of seeing more street cars.

Help spread the word.......................

I love pinks and frequently watch it ..but I however am sick of all the catering they do to the 9 sec or 10 sec all out drag cars...In my opinion unless your a high 9 sec or low 10 sec car it's a waste to enter...heck yesturday I watched the thanksgiving day evening run of 4 to 5 all out episodes in a row and almost every episode was 10 sec cars.......I agree with the post above about doing a street car episode...now that'd be cool and different...us street guys are always forgotten about and put out to pasture..yet we make up the greater population of racing ... cause were what most blue collar people can afford to buy and mod

Watch how many people hang out in the stands to watchForce's AA/FC Mustangs Runat the Nationals.
Now see how many people hang out to watch the NHRA Stockers Run.
Its all about what the television audience wants.

While this is true for the most part, I agree, I think it would be nice to see an 11-12 sec bracket for a change instead of the same thing show after show. Just b/c the cars aren't as fast, doesn't mean it won't be just as interesting/exciting.

We just went to all out in Tuscon, AZ. We took some 9 second cars and they ended up running a 12.5 class. Rich was a total d**khead, just like he seems to be on the show.

I loved that episode, it was freakin hilarious, he looked like a rag doll. Then he was trying to act all tough after.

yea, he interfears too much. Whats up with not letting people bet under $500. You gave them the money, let them bet whatever they want.
