Re: NFMS tickets yet - 2 years ago
OK.... The attached image is a good map for pull seating. If you see any Freedom Hall maps, the ends marked as "stage" or "screen" are always the starting line. This particular map shows only one area that is not actual seating on the finish line, the blue seat sections marked 101, 102, 103, 143, and 144. Hope this helps your seating decisions.by Bryan Lively - Forum

Re: How pulling dies - 2 years ago
This thread illustrates the need for pulling to use biofuels as a base fuel. I understand the obstacles using those fuels but what better way to sustain the sport? Using "renewable" fuels puts the sport in a positive light and could "grow" it in an unexpected way, in my opinion.

Re: Grow the sport gambling - 2 years ago
The largest hurdle is that many states still do not have legal gaming (betting specifically) available. Secondary to that is the cost of gaming licenses which based on my limited research are far beyond reason. I fall back on my continuing argument about anything, let NASCAR or the NHRA figure out how to make it work on-site and adopt a similar format. I have an idea for a gaming coby Bryan Lively - Forum
