I'm not legal to run, but I'll be there. Quick 4 is heads up right? Please tell me it isn't bracket style.

This is a bracket series on a full tree and these are bracket racers racing for bragiing rights. Would be fair to ask them to one race on a full tree and the the next on pro tree followed by a full tree, then another pro tree ,then a full tree.

JD, I agree.

Get me 8 mid to low 10. Vettes and a sponsor with about "6 Grand" and I'll run it as a separate series on SUNDAYS so we can use open exhaust and a PRO TREE it will be and will have better track conditions.

Can you do that JD for me ;) I'll do it.

NOW That's :cool: ;)

why do you need that many cars to run a pro tree? they're out there...i don't know about ALL of them being in nearby NJ...but they're existing.

i spoke to john g 92 about this...i think (and it's just my opinion) you'll see less red lights with a pro than a full. heads up is to me the first one to the finish wins, you don't see john force or the top dogs going off a bracket style tree.we shouldn't be any different. JMHO no flaming intended.

JD please read below. Thanks for you input but this is in the interest of the bracket racer not John Force

This is a bracket series on a full tree and these are bracket racers racing for bragiing rights. Would be fair to ask them to one race on a full tree and the the next on pro tree followed by a full tree, then another pro tree ,then a full tree.

Mackey,I think it should be run on a pro tree,I also think there should be a Quick 4 Unlimited,and a Quick 4 N/A,in Maryland at the Vette/Viper shootout back in May,there was a Quick 8 N/A and a Quick 8 Unlimited,it worked out good that way.

Let see how this works one thing at a time.

I'll talk to the track again on the PRO tree.

One thing you must remember car count and a sponsor for this race will give us more opportunities.

Thats how it works.

Glad to see some other agree. It'd be more challenging also re-acting off a pro tree. It is by NO MEANS......."EASY" I'd done it a few times with my mustang back in '92-'95
