Keep the SportsNational.

[RNNChrisbarnes]

So a question for the D1crowd. Would you like to see the JEGS Sportsnatoinals become a yearly event? And if yes, keep it at one track. Or move it every year?

[rboyle]

Yes definitely keep it. Atco, Epping, Lebanon, Numidia, Cecil are all good choices! Island Dragway should get an open too

Get’s my affirmative vote, and I’m not opposed to having it rotate amongst tracks in the division. We need more events that encourage folks to get involved in the Sportsman categories with the added incentive of a chance to earn a big Wally.

Lebannon or island Dragway would be cool and isnt ATCO closed?

Yes and run class too.......isn't that what Sportsnationals is.

[Dave Casey]

New England's National event got cancelled, the Sportsnationals at New England probably only happened because of that cancellation . We all want a Sportsnational, Hope for it, but don't expect it , especially if the National events all happen in 2021.

My guess is that unless someone else steps up the number and location of the various SportsNationals is pretty much up to Jeg's.

In my opinion that is who should be lobbied on this one.

Its to bad that the division couldn't or wouldn't advocate for this extra race again. Yes 2020 was a hot mess. But racing is racing. But also having 3 to 400 cars show up should carry some weight.

You are also getting back 3 National Events in D1 hopefully for 2021, the SportsNats were added to help aide those who were looking for NE points in D1 since we lost all three Nationals here. Trust me I think if they added the Sportsnats to the schedule with the 3 Nationals on the schedule you wouldn't get 400 + cars and you had a decent amount of OOD Division cars that attended because Nationals were few and far between, Epping is not a track that a lot of us down in the PA, NJ, DE, MD, VA area like to travel too. You also have to look at what JEGS wants to do also, If JEGS isn't willing to be the sponsor of the Sportsnats then the show won't go on. I think they are very happy with the Columbus Race and JEGS All-Stars at Indy but, if we have a repeat of 2020, I could see Jegs jumping back up to put some events together for the sportsman racers so they can get National Event points.

Well, i think if it is done again it should be a 1 race only, and in the middle of the division, and by 1 race i mean no double/weekend, 1 div race and then the sportsnats, Why? well IHRA did the same thing 1 weekend 2 races 1 (saturday) would be a division race the other (sunday) would be the National event. So it all came down to what day you got lucky enough to win. Saturdays winner kinda got hosed....
Again, double divisional races are cool but keep the big races (nationals and sportsnationals) separate and keep the Glory of winning one special!
