gambler race is like a bracket race that everyone is in the same class right?

This always messes up TNT. These Gambler races take forever and there never seems to be alot in them. I am coming for TNT. Last time I was there I got there early and only ran 4 times and left around 1am.

I like the idea. Fridays are tough for to make unless I'm off work on time. I would like to see it be no delay box though.

When its cold outside those cars keep the track warm so everyone is benefitting from them some kinda way.

the gamblers race at bowman usually takes about 10 min a round. if you only got 4 runs in it was your own fault

Ya, Ok, Not the night I was there. The wait in between them stoppping the TNT and getting the Gamblers going was atleast a 15 min wait and I was in line waiting just about everytime. So No, It wasn't my fault.

I dont get there until between 8-9pm and I have enough time to cool the car off and get in 4 runs in before I leave...But I stay away from the staging lanes when they call the gamble cars up!

I think they prep the track before they start each round also...Maybe you just had bad timing

I think its a pretty good idea, but like Will I would like to see delays boxes and cross overs eliminated..

Amen to that! It will help to level the playing field a bit.

That was just my experience and I did not get in the stageing lanes on purpose when the bracket was going on. They called them up while I was in staging and just cut TNT off. Oh well, Will not keep me from going back.
