[quote=Steve Barcak;4892164....... Just 4 weeks back this same track ran a NHRA national event with 300mph cars. Why would you be concerned?...... [/quote]

I believe NHRA does their own track prep for national events--bring their own crew, equipment, etc. In years past, there have been concerns about track prep at Firebird (mine among them), so it's certainly worth bringing up and emphasizing with the new track manager when you meet with him .
