Div. 3 Stock/Superstock Combo Races

Dick Butler · 01-31-2009, 01:23 PM

It is great that people are taking on the project of having more races for people to run close to home. It is good that Tech will be done to assure following the rules.
Is there any places going to add TOP/STK or JR/STK so that some type of Class racing (Heads Up) can be held instead of all "dial in " format?

Dick, the problem with that is some tracks not having scales and fuel check, and the qualified people to work them. Plus the lack of qualified tech people to know what a car should/shouldn't have. That's the main reason for having no actual qualifying or heads-up runs. I guess if the track had all the stuff to do it, and had someone like Travis, Duane, Terry or someone, it could probably be done. For most of us that do these races/circuits, we like these to be easy, laid back, low pressure, fun races for the racers to compete at.

Roger, wont be a problem at all, the car meets general saftey rules with no problem, so come race!

Dick, main reason is like Mike is talking, we are not going to scale anybody, just come in, dail in and go.
I'm running this on the same deal as my good friend Dave Ley runs his highly secessful ECSSSA. races.
Now, you want to step up and put some $$$$ up, now we can talk.

At the risk of sounding stupid, IHRA and GT stock OK? We are building, slowly a Crate Motor car to get our feet wet again after a long hiatus and are looking for places to run it around IN, IL and Ohio

It would be nice to have a S/SS Race scheduled at Div.3 Kil-Kare in Xenia, Oh.
The UMTR stick shift Assn. ran there last year. If I remember right a couple years
ago Dave Layer & others scheduled S/SS race at Kil-Kare that I believe was rained
out.

I spoke to Kil-Kare on Saturday and it look as if we will have 1 or maybe 2 races there. We just have to work out dates .
All IHRA and NHRA are allowed.This includes Stock GT , Crate Motor Stock , Pure Stock ,any class listed in the rulebook under Stock or Super Stock.
Will keep everyone updated.
