You know I'm in Brian and Lee! We'll be there with both cars! Happy Holidays everyone!

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Well we have 51 entries so far, if you know of anyone that may be coming and they are not on classracer or Facebook please let us know. Again if we get enough entries we will adjust both payouts, the Cic race on Friday and the combo Race on Saturday. Plus we still have a few ideas that may get thrown out there for everyone to decide on.
Wishing everyone a Happy and safe New Year! See you soon

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Make that 52. I'm in!

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Happy New Year!!!!

Here is one idea we would like to try. ASRA vs. ECSSSA at the Combo in the Hills. We are thinking of a $50 side bet to whoever goes the farthest on Saturdays combo event gets the pot and bragging rights for there association. You need to be a member of either association to be eligible. Just to throw a number out there if 40 people enter this it would be a $2000 payday and you don't necessarily have to win the event. Just need to be the last racer in that entered this side bet. Brian and I have passed this along to Dave Ley and Greg Barsamian, both have agreed to this. Please give us some feedback if this is something worth trying or any other ideas that we may be able to bring to the Combo in the Hills!

Let's here your ideas.

please make a ad up and I'll put it in the first 2012 issue of the stats for you

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

I am going to try and make it this year. but the only thing is I will only be spectateing. unless I hit the lottery by then. Sounds like a awesome race heard alot of good things about last years race.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Mike Bassin,... Brian , Rob and I would love to have you with us again this year.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Happy New Year to you and your families,

Your idea sounds good to me, the ASRA will be having our annual meeting in conjunction with our banquet on Feb 4th and I will make sure that your event is discussed, and a decision made. Personally,my concern is that we could get enough members to attend, many of our members don't travel that far, hopefully we could encourage enough to attend. You picked a good date this year , scheduling is always the hardest part of these things.

Props to both of you for setting up this event, any stock and super stock races that promote and enrich our style of racing are a great thing. I put Numidia as one of my favorite facilities.

Thanks, Dave

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Dave, Thanks so much for your interest and your support. We greatly appreciate it. I know that for a long time now there have been talks about having a race between the ASRA and ECSSSA. We understand the logistics and difficulty with scheduling and just figured that this could get the guys on both sides a little more interested in attending the race. I know that a lot of your racers do not travel that far but I do know that a lot of them do go to the divisional at Englishtown and Numidia is only 60 miles more from Lebanon Valley (Where a few of your races are) than Englishtown is. Plus a lot less tolls. And You would run for more money at our race. With all of these I would hope that the race would become viable for a lot of the ASRA. Once again, Happy New Year to everyone. Hopefully 2012 is everything that you want it to be.

Lee, Brian and Rob,

I would love to announce the Combo in the Hills II, as long as the Dimino family would like me there. I had a great time last year, it was my pleasure. Feel free to call me anytime, 717-259-7996. I will be over at Hershey in for the the Div. One meetings, see many of you there!

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Lee, Brian and Rob,

How bout throwing the CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association, into the mix of the side bets? If everything goes right with this year, I plan to be there.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

This is great, how about the idea of starting round money with a 1st round win. Getting something for a round or two win takes the sting out of ever growing high over head. Plus I get to show something to my wife, heheheh....

Just my thoughts:)

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Scott, we would love to have you there. We will let you know about adding on to the side bet for the association racers. If it would help draw cars I'm all for it, and as far as paying 2nd round loser we just cannot do it. It takes quite a bit of money from the following rounds to make that happen. And to pay someone that gets pulled for a bye without actually competing for a win light just doesn't sound right to me. We are paying 3rd round losers. As it was set up, if we get 100 cars entered on Saturday you will receive $200 for your efforts. That's $50 more than the cost of your entry. We thought this was fair for everyone. Again if we get the entries we will adjust the payout from 3rd round loser to the winner.

Thank you, can't wait to get the season started and see you at Numidia our Division1 Track of the year!!!!

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

As long as I have a car to race I will be there.. My stocker project is slow moving and super stocker is still apart. I agree first round winner getting a little something always helps. I know Mike Carr does that.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

We will be coming from Connecticut and don't really want to leave after the race is over saturday to drive home that night.
Can we leave car and trailer at track saturday night stay overnight pick up Sunday morning and leave for home?
Thanks,Dan.
Guess what I am really asking is will we have to pay Sunday morning to get into track?

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Look forward to seeing you there Dan, should not be a problem at all to come in Sunday morning to pick up your trailer.

Lee
Brian

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

I saw the list of nearby hotels/motels.
Can anyone recommend a favorite in the area?
Thanks, dan.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

They are all good, Holiday Inn Express at the Buckhorn very nice and give a Numidia Dragway discount. Patroit Inn in Bloomsburg also gives a discount.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

My suggestion would be to just pitch a tent at Mustang Sally's or if you guys can leave the gate open for the people that are coming back from there.. Thanks

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Ok if I show up You East Coast Racers won't beat me up to bad LOL Miss My daughter , Grand Son and Son in Law big time :) Not sure i can make my car run in humid weather

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Don,
As Myself, Lee & Brian would say just come out and have fun cause that's what this race is all about! Have fun, catching up with old friends, getting some good grub and if we have time we'll try to fit some racing in their also.

Rob Keister
.90 Nationals Promoter

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Yes Don I would love to see you again. Had a great time talking to you last year in Brians motorhome. I watched all the videos of your car that Toby put on here and they looked great. I hope to see you here again this year

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Just talked with Vinny from Numidia, he told me that he will have someone on duty at the gate till 10pm on Sunday, June 3rd for anyone that is coming from Englishtown National Event or the Pittsburgh IHRA Pro-Am and would like to drop off their trailers for the following weekend. Just let the person at the gate know that you are parking for the .90 Nationals / Combo in the Hills Event and you will be good to go. Their will be no parking on Mon - Wed and the gates will open at 5pm on Thursday June 7th or if Lee, Brian or Myself get up there earlier the 5. Thanks!

RK

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

I figured since we are literally 2 months away from the Combo in the Hills / .90 Nationals I'd let everyone re-live last years Combo in the Hills Event that Lee and Brian worked so hard on. Hope to see everyone make it out for this event, we promise you from the time you enter the gate on Thursday / Friday for the Free Test & Tune all the way till the end and the Free Racers BBQ on Saturday Night we want you to leave going "Wow that was FUN and I can't wait till next year!!"

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

That was a Great clip of video's put together, thank you for sharing.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Can I also request that Stock and Super Stock be pitted on the tower side of the track. It's nice to be all together, and nicer when you are on the side of the track where the return road, fuel pumps and staging lanes are! Plus, that is where we always pitted when were there for points races. It's just a lot more convenient.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

We are going to be pitted on the tower side this year. Since we have the track all to ourselves it should be cleared out enough so that we have plenty of room for everyone over there.

Brian Van Poppel

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

The only thing I do ask is to leave a decent size area around the grandstands open as that is where we are going to park the Donhausers and set-up for the Racers BBQ. If anyone would like to contribute and bring something you can e-mail me at Rekeister@aol.com. The menu that night will consist of Burgers, Hot Dogs, Corn, Chips and whatever else I come up with in the next few weeks. It will be Bring Your Own Beer Though!

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

I know most of you are all racing at E-Town this weekend but, I just figured I'd see who's coming to Numidia next weekend? I know Brian & Lee take delivery of their new baby this afternoon from WJ so I know they will be on Cloud 9 for the next few days, months, years...lol. All three of us look forward to putting on a great sportsman show at the "Thrills in the Hills" next weekend and I hope you the racers support the hard work and effort we have all put into bringing you this race. Without you the racers coming to these events it would never survive. I talked to Bob yesterday and he said he's getting warmed up on the mic for everyone next weekend at Numidia so watch out! Hope to see everyone next weekend at the Combo in the Hills x 2.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Rob, Brian, & Lee, Didn't know you wanted a head count, been planning on it since last year! See you Sat. AM. Bill Taylor B/S 1005.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

We will be there Saturday morning. See you then. Thanks for all your hard work on this. Can't wait to get there!!!!

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Bill,

We are not looking for a head count at all just seeing who might be making the trip. I know for some it's 3 or 4 weeks in a row and to be honest with the addition of the National in Epping Next year it's going to make it tough for future events...just too much racing going on and new series popping up that it's becoming harder and harder to schedule these types of races and get good car counts. Trust me I'd rather do this type of racing rather then the other stuff but, I'm not everyone. For me with the 90 Race I've had to dodge Hurricanes & Rescheduled National Events and looking at the weather for next weekend.......let's not even go there......lol

Rob K.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

I think the track sells Sunoco race fuels. Will anyone be there Friday with VP?

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Tony,

Track does sell Sunoco, you can e-mail Bob at Numidia (gobusing@aol.com) and see if he can bring some in for the weekend. I know a few .90 Guys may need some VP also.

Rob

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

Count me in.

Re: "Combo in the Hills 2"
 

I will be back again with two cars....The Bounding Beagle dakota has had some work at MR-2 performance and will hopefully be bounding higher and faster.....And the Ed-Mobile will be doing its pro-stock style launches..armed with a full Moly cage from Tom Goldman....My daughter if school work allows might be shoing the Ed-Mobile for the first time.....Watching your kids play at this, is priceless.
