John, when you design the waterbox area, PLEASE make it wide enough for radial tire cars to go around the water. It used to **** me off when I went to Sealy on drag radials and was forced to drive through a puddle of water each pass.

Thanks

I believe that the staging lanes, including the waterbox, are getting a substantial updating as well. To allow for passage around the waterbox. They almost have enough room now, but there hose and spigot are placed right in the middle of the the two boxes.
