Good nights racing last night, Brayton was again a class above along with Metty. Not a super technical track and very short lap times but some good racing. The concerning factor is the depth of the sport with still 3 spots available on the gate for the nights triple race format, big shout out to Lawson Bopping who ended up 6th or 7th overall after not racing for nearly 2 years on a basically stock bike
Is it any wonder that people aren't lining up to race though? Potentially cripple yourself for this $100 superpole cheque. You make more working a half day at kmart.

still not getting enough 450's tho,
If ya had bigger track would of meant Brayton just flog everyone by 10plus seconds....bigger track would open up more stadium seats that would not be filled by spectators...
Yes he is a privateer, yes he knows what he is in for money wise before he signs up, yes nobody is forcing him to do it, but, there are only very limited fully supported rides and it's the privateers that fill up all those empty gates. So making it more appealing for the privateers to spend their hard earned cash would be to give them a decent track don't you think?
I'm sure privateers would love 50 second lap times, but the promoter will go broke trying to do that. Also if we go back to the arena sized tracks then an 8-10 man gate is all we need, no giant gaps in the start line, or obvious gaps in ability.
Just my thoughts
