    No passing hardly. Definitely a proponent of practice the night before. If the track was the same as last night it would've been good to go. But once again... you cannot practice before a big race or it will suck

        Good Luck

        Good luck with getting tracks to run Super Late Model feature early. I agree with you 100%, but it just don't happen. Especially at North Georgia, if you seen the feature before daylight, you were lucky.

          That in and of itself is the problem and why I haven't been to NGA in the last 3 years and will never go back. Other tracks do move the supers up and or set time limits on support classes.

          You don't need to.wonder what happened to the great NGA and why they can't get fans to.come because they continue to repeat the same mistakes.

            It's like most tracks want to drag it out in hopes you'll spend $5 at the concession stand, but fail to realize people don't want to be kept out all night for no reason and will save their $20-30 and not go to that tracks next show. But on the flip side, people love a moving show that is run efficiently and over at a good time and people remember that as well.

              That's exactly right. I purposefully don't spend money at a track's concession stand if they try to drag out the show and/or run 7 support classes before the supers run their feature. And I'm less likely to go back the next time, like you said.

                Well-stated. I agree completely.

                  Agreed. I spent zero at the track. Brought in waters and snacks in cooler. My 2 hr 10 trip included $15 in gas, $20 general admission, $7.50 Steak n Shake on the way back home. Not to shabby.
