In regard to the Drag Classes at ATCO for yesterdays Pontiac Nationals, it was a poor choice of having ONLY two RACING classes set up. The Pro Pontiac Class was for cars 9.00 to 19.99. How many STREET cars even had a chance with professional drivers cutting double 0 lights and running slicks. My son Darren cut a very good light @ .014, but the RACE car he was up against in the first round cuts a .010 light. He lost by .025 and the tree was part of it. I contacted Tom from the GTO club, that put on the event , and he said he has asked for a Street Class with NO slicks, but ATCO has refused. He and I both did take a GOLD award in the show which was really cool.

That's that way things go sometimes. It sucks that they didn't have a no slick category, but there isn't much you can do about. I used to bracket race all the time back home in Illinois and a few times I was the only street car in a field of guys running 7s-11s. I managed to get to the final one night only to race a 7 second rail car using electronics to run the same every time. I had an awesome reaction time, but its all I could do to lose by .001. It sucked, but hey I had a blast. There really is nothing like getting a 6 second head start and watching a rail run you down like a freight train. lol

IMO the tracks are forced to cut back on the number of classes due to the low number of entries. I remember that Atco had multiple classes for Pontiac Day back in 2003. It took 5 rounds to get into the final and the ET cut was 13.0. Back then there were enought cars to let the tracks run multiple classes give payouts in each and still make money.
The other issure I see is plain bracket racing experiece. The guy in the race car had more experience and a better tool than you son. At these events there are always going to be a number of good bracket racers looking for an "easy" payday. I don't see any way around that problem. For the record I have been running a 14 second pure street mustang ('07 GT auto) and I'm very competitive against a pro class field.
I hope you and your son don't get fed up with everything and never bracket race again. Moreover I really hope for just the opposet. Race as often as you can, gain expereince, and come back next year with the street car and kick a$$ in the pro eliminator class. Atco does offer a street bracket racing class as does Raceway Park.

The same happened to my buddy Steve(green '98 T/A with NY plates). Both were exactly the same off of their dials but the other car(which was a slicked up race car) cut a slightly better tree....it happens...that's racing. It sucks but like others have said, when it gets to be this time of year and turnout is typically low you can't have a bunch of classes, it dilutes the number of entries.
