| Need to pay the 8's more money to attract more drivers. The 4 cyl are very boring and do not bring the excitment to the track. PAY THE 8'S MORE AND THEY WILL COME. MORE 8'S MORE FANS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE.

| bern needs to start checking the engines, some of them cars like the 59, 58 and 99 are anything but stock, makes it impossible for someone with a small budget to have a competive car, thats whats wrong with the 8s, you need nothing short of RBC backing ya to keep up with thoes guys. If it was actually stock car racing, hence stock, you would have a lot more 8s

| there is a lot of time gone into the v8 cars.those who don,t do good at the track it shows.they don,t spend time trying to set the car up or try to get it working better . there is alot of time gone into 59 99 58 19. plus who wants to see slow cars crawling around the track.bern will have to start a bone stock race for the slow people.suck it up

| "fan" that posted that 99 and 59 arn't stock were you dropped on your head? look at the cars yourself and your see there stock engines just hours of tuning the engine to make them as fast as they are

| I agree the cars should have been left bone stock. It was way more fun to watch when people just had a stock monte carlo or afire bird or some thing. Its what destroyed the dirt track in central cars like 24, 14,76, those guys had the money to invest and the little guys couldnt compete.

| Listen, I go to the races every week, and sure you got to watch the lightning and thunder, but come on people, its the v8's that i wanna see. That roar of the engines as they go flatout around the track. PRICELESS. I know 99 and 58, seem to take most of the races, but 30,19, and 156 have heart man they keep showing up and if they didn't it wouldn't be half as interesting. That being said go 59 go!!!!!

| To the persone who said was I dropped on my head, are you stupid? Do you know what a stock 350 sounds like? And to the person who said...hence super stock, read the rules....you are not aloud to modify the engine...suppose to be a stock 350, 360, 351 or whatever floats your boat. Yes time and money go into setting up theses cars, but A LOT of money goes into the motors as well....I do believe Weir got DQed out in thundervalley the weekend due to not running a stock car, failed a vacuume test...but I guess that don't mean anything. I not trying to put anyone down, they can get away with it so why not go ahead and do it, Im just proving a point thats all, ppl wonder why no 8s are showing up? its because its cheaper to buy a house then it is to run a season at avondale, and to be competive. If ppl wants to run modified cars, change the name of the class and the rules so it will be fair, and everybody knows what it will take to be competive.

| There is some good point brought up here. The high cost associated with many of the 8 cylinder cars are because of the engines. The rules are in place to keep cars competitive and also to keep cost down. The rules used at all the tracks on NF came from the mainland, there may be small changes, but essentially they are the same. By choosing not to enforce engine rules, it does allow the driver willing to spend $$$$ to have an advantage. Enforce the rules, it will level the playing field and cars will return. V8s are what people want to see. EVS is a prime example, V8s went, so did the fans, a track will not survive on 4 cylinders alone.

| The guys who are cheating, know they are cheating. They want to race and they want to win, thats why they cheat. DQ them once, they will be back the following week and the car will meet that rule enforced. It's up to management to enforce the rules, without rules people get pissed off and don't come back.

| I've said for year...there has to be a set of Rules out at the track and the Rules should be followed.Five years ago when the Rules where followed (car inspections every week & safety)..I said this for the past two year that someone will get hurt out there, and the owners don't care about anyone only the Money..This is why the track is looking like a shithole and they can't get drivers and workers.
