Should make a rule. Driver of the car, must be the owner of car. Would help stop people from borrowing someone elses dialed in car to run. Race what you own per say.

I don't really think this will be too much of an issue, plus if someone "borrows" a car it just increases the car count.

Why is it 1/8 mile? Is it because there's not enough shut down area at GLD?

I have a turbo car, so my car performs better on the big end. I can run 9's, 10's or 11s in the quarter mile, but my 1/8 mile is always the same!

It's 1/8 mile because if a faster car spins vs a "slower" car it makes the race very close vs having a faster car that spins and still drives around the slower car in the 1/4 so it evens the playing field.

I'm sure it helps car count for the 1 or two guys that use someone else's car, but kind of kick to the balls when you get that someone entering a race, with a borrowed car that fits the bill, and mops the field. I think more people would want enter, if they felt they had a better chance with people running their own cars. The builder brawl last year was packed just for this reason, you had to build and own what you brought. Would be nice to see more of that happen.
