Big Super Gas Race?

06-16-2008, 09:03 PM

Anyone who thought a Big Money race for the Sportsman guys could not happen was proven wrong last Wednesday. $10,000.00 to win Stock/Super Stock race at Atco, and yes they only got 66 cars (based on 128 to enter) but they still paid out the $10,000.00. So the question is who would be up for a Super Gas Race similar to that? Maybe not $10,000.00 to win but something worth the tow and entry fee (7,500.00, 5,000.00). I am looking at closer to the end of the year (maybe the Wednesday October 1st before the D-1 race at Atco). Let me know if anyone would be interested in racing or being a sponsor. You can e-mail me at rekeister@aol.com. Let's get it on.....

maybe if you would make it a super gas/super comp race there would be the possibilty of more entrys....run seperate until final and maybe have a run off ?

Heck, lets make it a 8.90, 9.90, 10.90 race. I'll be there!!

You guys let me know how you wouls like to run it. I think the combo race is a good idea but the only thing is when you start pitting door cars against dragsters I think there is a unfair advantage. I bracket race at Atco all the time and trying to judge a dragster upstairs is very tough. Then with Super Street you have the difference in the christmas tree .4 tenths to .5 tenths. I mean if I get enough sponsors and interest I could work on a race for all classes but only time will tell.

Haha, that sounds like that Pro Tree Nationals race that MIR used to put on back in the day. I do miss that race...probably cause we won the Super Comp part of it in '91

I'd like to see that, doubt we will get enough cars tho. With a low entry fee we might.

All ready have a few people interested on here and through e-mail. I am working on it very hard so hopefully I will have more info for you guys as it becomes available. Hopefully Gas is not 7.00 a gallon by this race either...time will tell
