Default Pinks all out

Pinks All-out has posted the schedule for 2008. Each track has a link to there websites. I know people have different thoughts about the way the show is run but…..10 Grand is 10 Grand. I entered the All-out at Maple Grove last year and it was a pretty good time. There was a very small showing of street cars compared to the amount of full race cars as well. I think that may be due to the way the entries are advertised. It’s obvious that the shows host always leans toward 9 and 10 second cars. It would be cool if enough REAL street cars showed up to give better odds to get in the final 16. Check your local tracks sign-up procedures and let’s flood the fields with actual street cars.

they come to Englishtown in July and we have a lot of Corvettes that race there so it will be interesting to see what it ends up being.

There also of lot of 8.5- races cars in the area...should be interesting.

They came to Tucson, AZ. Southwestern International Raceway and ran a 12.50 class because of whatever. So there ya go, street cars. There was also 425 cars here too, that drag strip was absolutely packed. I crew on a car there and haven't seen it that packed even for a $15,000 race before

If you want to see any chance you have to be consistant in your time. They run cars that run within a tenth of itself on each pass. I understand they want consistancy to make for closer better racing. Maybe we need to get a list of names that wants to see a stick car Pinks all out. This would make things much more interesting in my opinion. They almost ALWAYS choose auto/big tire cars set up to run bracket in the 9-10.5second range from my experience in watching and going to MIR,Maple grove etc.
