i got there 30 minutes late, in other words 1:30pm


the day was too crowded and packed..... as I was leaving the lines were still out the door for the race....

E town has gotten greedy by trying to get as many people into the track in one day w/o giving them the amount of runs they're entitled to

I strongly disagree

Actually the event was postponed due to rain and most of the attendees no doubt had rain checks and did not pay anything

I think Javier was just trying to squueze in the two outstanding events - Mitsu Day and the Evo vs WRX shootout before years end

The other option would have been to NOT hold the events - if you look at the Raceway Park web site their calendar is filled

There were RWD domestics there as well as SRT4's, older DSM's and us EVO/WRX guys....

I think E-towns management is out to screw us for our $$$ and not give us our 3 runs
Agreed, I was there also. Whoever missed out didn't miss anything spectacular. They don't give enough runs at all.

If only mother nature had co-operated on our last date - we had AMS, TT, Big Valey, Dan B., and of course myself all ready to race

Rain sucks

I left left soon after TT made their run. Like someone else said; those who missed it didn't miss much. It got very boring watching watching mustangs run and a bunch of other misc cars run, I know that bias but It's not what I came to see. like wise though i guess for a rain check voucher it was ok. I'm glad I didn't run though. in between evos, dsms, mustangs, bikes, and misc it was too much. Hopefully next year will be better and turn out like the rained out even; maxed with evos & STis.
