Hey Drew,
I'm awaiting a call back from MG on this, they have been flooded with calls / emails for refunds for the National Event and people calling and yelling at them because it was cancelled. So I haven't had much time to grab their ear on stuff. Also trying to get a parking staff together and some people to help in the lanes because a lot of the normal staff takes off for the Nationals since NHRA brings in their people so they use that for vacation.

I will have a flyer and all info in a day or two.

Thanks,
Rob

BKSG1198 08-21-2020 05:49 PM

Re: 90 Nationals at Maple Grove - Sept 12th & 13th - 2020
 
Due to the COVID-19 guidelines in PA, we have to unfortunately limit the car counts for each class. I would love to just open the gates and let everyone in but:

#1 - We wouldn't finish in time, if this was a 3 day event we probably could let everyone in. I also wouldn't want to make anyone mad because we ran up against curfew or couldn't finish a race in time.
#2 - With a large crowd it might set off the authority's in which we could be shut down if the crowd count go over too much.
#3 - Masks and Social Distancing is a must for this event
#4 - Right now there will be no spectators allowed.

So here's how it works - All the .90 classes will be limited to 80 cars each, anyone who finished in the Top 10 of the Mid Atlantic .90 2019 Points will get treated like a past world champ or D1 champ so even if we hit the 80 cap and someone who finished in the Top 10 hasn't got in, you will be able to get in. This is a perk for running the .90 series and supporting me. If one class doesn't fill up (Say only 65 Super Street enter) and 12 Super Comp are waiting, we'd let the 12 SC in and cap SST.

There will be NO entries at the gate, you must pre-enter. I have to do this because I can't take the risk of having 200 super comp cars show up. We will hopefully have the link set up shortly.

BKSG1198 08-22-2020 09:41 PM

Re: 90 Nationals at Maple Grove - Sept 12th & 13th - 2020
 
MONDAY, MONDAY, MONDAY!!! We will be posting the link to enter the .90 Nationals and TD / TS Shootout at the Grove. This is to be fair to everyone who’s racing in Epping this weekend for them to get a fair shot at entering this race also!
Remember only 80 Cars per .90 class and 50 in TS & TD. This will set it the fields at a comfortable setting that we will be able to fit the event in at a proper time, get you the qualified runs, the the high roller race and eliminations.

If there is weather or you cannot make the event (you pre-enter and something comes up over the next few weeks) you will have till Wednesday the 9th to back out and get a refund.

We’ll also post updates on how many spots are left, I hope to see you all come out to this event and next year we can have a big party with everyone in attendance and run for some even bigger cash and prizes!
So get the keyboard ready to enter on Monday!!

Drew,
I apologize for the wait, I'm trying to work out something to allow us in the gates around 12 on Friday to get parked and set up. The track will be open at least at 4pm Friday Night for their normal Test & Tune night and I'd advise to go through tech that night to save on the cluster on Saturday Morning but, trying to work on grabbing Friday as a Test & Tune day, just waiting on a number to rent.

Thanks again
Rob

Rob , we need to do the same as a Div or national race with "self tech" and just hand in our cards and let Tech Officials do spot checks in the lanes as they do at Div and National races.
Nearly all the cars that will sign up for this race have been doing this for over a year now , no reason not to do it at this race.

26 Super Comp
19 Super Gas
17 Super Street

Don't be shy and scared to enter, you don't have to pay right now...we're not going to hold your cash hostage or if you back out were going to transfer it to another event, you will have till Wednesday the 9th at Noon to back out and Thursday the 10th at Midnight to pre-enter. We're taking at least 80 cars so no worries about who might be entered but,if we get 80 and you call pull up at the gate, I would hate to turn you away. Just come out and have some fun and run for some big $$$ for the .90 classes!! We can only make this bigger and better for 2021 with the racers support!!

Since we had a rain-out on Saturday at Maple Grove for the .90 Race, we have a few extra contingency items left over and rather then have them go to waste, I figured it would only be right to give them back to the racers, so we're adding:

3 - $50 Jegs Gift Card
3 - $100 Jegs Gift Card
3 - $100 Meziere Gift Certificates
9 - $25 VP Gift Certificates
All winners and Runner-Ups will get a Contingency Connection Certificates used for discounts on numerous products!

All these items (except the contingency connection certificates) will be random draws to be given away for ALL Racers!!

Just talked to Roy and he said he has a guy on vacation that week and can't swing the event unfortunately. I know if some sponsors weren't planning to be there for the National their schedule were packed with other races to do since Roy does a lot of Dirt Track also.

Looking like the NHRA D1 race at Maple Grove will be a go on September 25-27th, for those wondering about this weekend and can trailers be left at the track....

Yes they can be:
#1 - You will have to fill out a form at the base of the tower
#2 - You will have to move the trailer by the tech barn, beats having to tow it back home and having to pay the tolls again.

So yet another reason to come out and hang with us this weekend!

Re: 90 Nationals at Maple Grove - Sept 12th & 13th - 2020
 
As we get closer to this event, we're looking more and more at the weather for Sunday. Right now it looks like scattered t-storms but, anyone know that two weeks ago we had 80% of rain and it never really happened. If the weather starts to look bad, we may cancel the high roller race and try to get 1 or 2 rounds in of the main event on Saturday Afternoon / Evening so if we get a window of opportunity on Sunday to finish the event.
