The original Combo in the Hills was Mother's Day weekend, located in the center of the highly populated Division 1, and drew about 85 cars for $10,000 to win. So.... yah, no.

2 no-no weekends is Mothers Day and Easter, you cannot compete with Mom and God.

I hear you,,, and don't get me wrong,, I love my mom, but our local track has scheduled an "Easter Bunny Nationals and a Mother's Day Nationals" for quite a few years now. I always felt a little peculiar racing on Easter,, but Mom has always been taken out to dinner, received a nice card and flowers, etc,, on an alternative day, and we've raced on Mother's Day,,, weather permitting. There was even a special "Mothers' class", for those that wanted to compete.

Beaver Springs does Mother's Day races, too, with a Mom's Eliminator where they race for a diamond necklace. I would (and have) raced on Mother's Day, and they used to have races Easter Saturday as well. Roxboro, NC has a big 2-day Easter Bash each year. When planning events, however, you have to look beyond what you would do yourself and understand your customer base as a whole. Yes, many people would race... but many people would not. We're trying to grow the car count, not cut it in half. Different customer bases and different markets have different requirements and expectations.
