since this is a association i think we should take a vote on allowing racers with a stock and a super stock car to allow a double entry, i think this should be up us the races to decide by vote and you pick your points claim before the first qualifying roud( im not trying to step on toes here, just think we should look into this). i think this will be a good idea more cars equals more rd money a bigger payout and points fund

also thanks scott for a great schedule and thank you to all sponsors envolved, im ready to get the season started

On double entrys if u have a stocker and super stocker its to different car setup and class rules which we r allowed to run both class in Ihra or Nhra class on the same weekend. I know of 10 people runing ccra right now that would run two cars thats 750 more dollars per race thats more than what Ihra runner up money is I agree with Brandon there should be a vote

[SCOTT TILLEY]

The CCRA is a Stock/Super Stock Combo Class Racing association. Stock and Super Stock is run as one eliminator. I don't know of any IHRA/NHRA event that you can drive 2 cars in the same eliminator, except maybe a bracket race. We are not a bracket racing association. The CCRA was started to allow legal IHRA/NHRA Stock and Super Stock cars and trucks an alternative place to race. And to follow IHRA/NHRA class rules and race regulations. This is the main reason I have started a second chance race. To give CLASS racers another chance to win at a very low cost.

If you have any questions please contact me.

Thank You

Other than putting more money in the pot, what would be the advantage for all the racers and the association? There is none. The advantage would only be for the ones that have two cars entered. You get double the hits on the tree and when it comes down to having to run yourself, which car do you think you will pick to win? Of course the one you are claiming for the points. It is an unfair advantage.

Thanks

right scott good point who needs more cars more support from the races i forgot if we allow that then we are comparing it to bracket racing..whatever man.

i guess we have no say in anything that happens at these races, years ago this was supposed to be something fun for all of us to do instead of high prices and long waits at the nationals, i have no problem with rules and i think a second chance race is a great idea to have at the combos, but what is the problem with a person that has a STOCKER and a SUPER STOCKER being able to race at the same event IHRA allows this at there track hosted combos, and you can run both cars i did it at rockingham a few years ago..if im going to drive to VMP for a combo i would like to take 2 cars, there is no extra hits on the tree thats a moot point no car is exactly the same so saying i get a time run in both cars that is no extra time on the tree leaving with a transbrake is not the same as leaving with a footbrake, make it 1 time run per car then if thats the problem i have no problem making a run in my ss car and a run in my stocker and thats it, thats the ww do it at the 2 day races...

i thought we took a survey on this... and what was the result i never heard anything,, im beginning to wonder if this is Scott Tilleys Stock Super Stock Association, if your so concerd and such an avid class racer how is you run an association and dont even show up to all your events last year or run but 1 or 2 IHRA races.....

this is the guy that tells us how we are supposed to run our association

Well Scott, it's a damn shame that with all of your wonderful hard work along with Tabitha's that you have to listen to garbage like this!!!! As one of CCRA's sponsors I agree that we follow the original premise of IHRA rules and the last time i checked we can't run 2 cars in the same eliminator.... nuff said. I for one, hope your don't get discouraged hearing this b.s. and i sincerely appreciate your hard work to give us an alternative place to race. Hell, i've got 6 race cars....I'm perfectly happy to bring only 1!

Jim, opinions are opinions that's just it an opinion, I along with others are not trying to change a thing just asking if we can race 2 different cars in a combo race... I apologize for my actions and words that were not the best to use but I apologize for them... I'm fine with racing one car it was a simple question and I'm tired of it being resorted to the term bracket racing not class racing...l told Scott and Tabitha I thankful for what they did no question about that...

I am very disappointed in some of the remarks I see here...that said I am glad apologies have been extended. There are only positives for the people trying to run multiple cars in a situation like this, it definitely will not attract additional members but it may encourage a few to stay home. In a points earning race the biggest advantage I see is if you get a round where you run yourself and the others don't have that option for a "free" round. If they allow it at an IHRA combo race you have to remember they aren't keeping points, that is a stand alone event. I don't think we want to end up with just 4 or 5 guys racing 2 cars and others not attending. I have raced multiple cars before and I know for a fact that it helped me to get more laps, more hits at the tree, just all around more comfortable knowing if you lost in one car you still had a chance in another. I really don't think it's just about getting more cars but we need more members.
Believe me, I know how difficult the job is that Scott is doing and insults don't make it any easier. Just support what we have and be happy we have someone willing to put the time and energy into coordinating it!
Just my .02 cents

Scott,

Just a thought don't change your rules , as Jim /Tracy said IHRA & NHRA wouldn't allow this why should CCRA ... Why not increase the entry fee by $25 & it will do the same think without giving any advantage to other people !! If it's about Money then this should workout & everyone can be Happy ? You guys have a good thing going don't ruin it , stay away from Two cars & Buy-backs ... The Race at VMP will draw more racers to CCRA , so keep expanding the track base ... I have to agree with everyone that Scott has done a great Job and needs our support for his hard work ... Keeping the sponsor's Happy is the most important thing you can do... Without them you are Toast !! Just something's to think about?
