The new manager takes over the track one week from today and I meet with him in person prior to that. I'll be working on event details from now until all is done and doing my best to make this 2013 weekend the best yet.

There is really no comparison to NHRA National event prepped tracks since NHRA does their own prep, and four weeks from a National Event is an eternity. And, this:

So, yeah, as a person who has raced divisional events there in the past, when the track prep was often mediocre at best, and with Charlie's last event this weekend, I was just inquiring about the track surface since I think others would be interested, as well. If you don't feel it's necessary, no worries...I was just asking since you mentioned you would be meeting with the new managers out there.
