Once again, Doug Rose shooting himself in the foot.  I thought the idea of the smaller track was to tighten up the competition and save wear and excessive strain on the motors.  Now the racers are running the "big" small blocks, running them at higher rpm's and basically creating their own issues.  Might as well go back to the 5/8 track, mandate all big blocks for the Modifieds, and let the racers race.  Quit trying to make things better.  It doesn't work.  If Doug really wants to do something good for the racers, figure out how to prepare the track so the cars aren't burning off 3 tires every feature.  With the current costs, there won't be many cars left by half way through the year.
