They should do it and use a bridge. ---

What is sad is that a major event that could have helped them out this year really back fired and unfortunately the organizers completely screwed everything up for the entire series to be canceled. I was really looking forward to the GRC event coming here and I know a bunch of other people were, they could have 100% sold that event out. It could have been something to open future events as well. Unfortunately the event organizers have not been paying people and it hit like 2 months before Lancaster was set to happen. It was a huge disappointment for me, I know that. ---

Its already going to be open next year a group of people were working on a deal before this article came out. ---

Nobody cares about 1/4 mile anymore honestly…Even Empire runs 1/8th mostly. ---

I was really looking forward to the GRC event coming here. Just to to clarify, you’re blaming the GRC organizers not Lancaster for the cancellation. I would have gone to see GRC as well.

Yep, blaming the GRC. Really pissed about that as I really was excited to see this come. Probably would have been the best racing we’d get around here in our immediate area for a long time. Unfortunately they suck at paying people back and lawsuits followed. ---

1/8th mile is lame. If you’re going to go drag racing, 1/4 mile is the way to go. The only reason empire is doing 1/8 mile is because their timing system is messed up ---

It didn’t have anything to do with the timing system they were using that as excuse early in the season…They repaved the 1/8th to put on better races they also wanted to run 1/8th to reduce the amount of time in between runs. They also switched all events besides T&T and MOMS(which they don’t run) to 1/8th only. Most racing is moving towards 1/8th mile they’re just keeping pace. ---

1/8th mile is gay, do you know how long it takes an NA Miata to reach 60 mph at WOT? About 3-4 miles. ---
