Just wondering...I've heard many people say 3-4 runs in a night at busier tracks.

The reason I ask is that last night at NYIRP (Near Rochester) I got 13 runs in.

That's not entirely ture Sprintmax..you've only been there 2-3 times so........

on an event day you will definatly get two runs because you have to get one practice run and a minimum of one bracket one if you get eliminated in the first round of brackets

on a friday night if you get there at 6pm then by 10pm you should get an average of 5-8 runs in

thing is you can't compare it to many other tracks because Etown is a MAJOR track in the area and everyone goes there...it's nothing like 75-80 dragway for those people who went to maxus

At the Memphis Motor Sports Park, I can get 10-15 runs if I go early in the evening. It's almost like spinning through a revolving door some nights. If you get there after 7:00, you might be lucky to get 3-4 runs in before they close-up shop at 10:00. The biggest determining factor is how many cars from Mississippi spew oil from one end of the track to the other! :-) It may take an *hour* to restore the track surface to race condition when that happens... Argh.

The folks out at the track run a good, professional deal. When things are going right, they really put a lot of cars through... safely, too.
