World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

This could make things very interesting in early March in Florida. Yesterday I saw an announcement for the World Doorslammer Nationals in Orlando.Last year Wes Buck (Drag Illustrated) and Richard Freeman (Elite Motorsports) put on a 50k to win Pro Stock and Pro Mod race the weekend before the Gators. This year is #2 and they are adding Top Sportsman, Comp, Factory Stock Showdown, and a Super Stock/Stock combo with each class paying 10 Grand!! In the announcement they stated that it's about time these classes got the recognition and purses they deserve.......

The million dollar question now is.... how many will skip the baby Gators to attend!! LOL! 10k talks!

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

I think the real question here is... where will my man Kenny be?

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

In true crackhead fashion........ maybe BOTH! LOL!! I am planning on running the Div schedule BUT last year I went to this race and it was one of the coolest races I've ever attended. Throw 10k on top and it will be a tough
decision!

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

I seen this too, looks like some people want to look after sportsman, but have question on it and i hope someone will come on here and answer, 1, how much is entry, 2. is it Guaranteed money. Asking for a friend, lol

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

sounds like race too good to pass up !

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

How about someone posting it here for the Class Racer community?

This is tempting me to skip the little gators and show my support. If this is not supported, it will quickly go away. To bad they stacked this on top of another race.

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

In my opinion, they did this to show NHRA how racers SHOULD be rewarded with better payouts and promotion.

If this race is a success and the baby gators flops, I think NHRA will quickly realize they're in trouble and make drastic changes money wise.

I highly suggest racers attend this race. It'll really make heads turn in Glendora. NHRA thinks they're the best option for sportsmen, pro stock & pro mod .... this race should prove them wrong.

Don't miss your chance to snub NHRA and prove racers deserve better.

Wish we had more options to run our car .... but we're kinda limited. Lol

I wished this was not on top of the d2 points race. I really don’t want to snub NHRA. Tough decision to make. The grade points to be able to run a few nationals is also important to some of us.

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

Depending on how their schedule stacks on the Baby Gators I’m hoping to run class at Gainesville, get a grade point and still be able to get a time trial and race the 10K. I’m now following Orlando on FB to see what info they share on pre entry and schedule.

Top dogs at NHRA better take notes after this is ran

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

$500 to enter stock/superstock combo. will be interesting who shows up and how payout compares to a divisional

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

$500 entry fee!?!?! OK that makes my decision a lil easier...

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

Makes mine much easier. If it was less I was thinking of running class Thursday and then heading to Orlando but now I will stay in one place.

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

Is the Stock, Super Stock combo 1/4 mile?

Double edged sword. If it fails, makes NHRA position stronger. With $500 entry, compared to NHRA $200. will be interesting.

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

The Southern Sportsman Showdown is $900 entry for 3 $20k races, The Class racer revival is $699 for 2 $25k races. $500 for single $10k race is not the best deal in town considering ProStock is $1000 entry for $75K. I guess S/SS combo will cover the ProMod/ProStock payout. I will be racing the Showdown and Revival, Just not sold on the Doorslammer just yet.

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

Those are some hefty entry fees !

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

some serious money to win also and look at the pay back on the Adel race

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

wonder how bad this is going to hurt the Baby Gators attendance

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

That is a very busy weekend. I plan on being at the NMRA in Bradenton for the Cobra-Jet Shootout.

I can go to other Division races but only get an couple of chances a year for the Cobra-Jet deal.

I don't have any grade points from sitting out the past few years. So the fun of going to Gainesville back to back isn't in the cards for me.

It's sad to see so many good options on the same weekend.

ya kinda wish they didnt pile it all on top of eachother

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

Push come to shove, the opportunity to run class is a bigger draw than $$$.

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

The way I see it you can go to a points race anytime this is a golden event not to miss

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

Is there anyplace that shows the payout structure for any of these big dollar races? Not that I have a car ready or would ever travel that far. But I have always looked more at Entry fee than the purse I know I have to pay the entry fee the odds of bringing home the big $ is pretty slim for most that enter. Now if you can make a few rounds and get your money back that makes it more appealing than the very top heavy payout that some have.

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

You are thinking correctly about these races. the payout Palm beach bracket race on new years went 10 rounds for $10k. entry was $150 pre enter. Most of these races pay round money starting 3rd or 4th round. think about over 3/4 of the racers are gone without money. The one thing bracket racers like about these events many times is 1 tow to enter 3 races. You have to do the math. of course NHRA does not get any money from these, just track and promoter, so maybe a little bigger pot

Re: World Doorslammer Nationals Stock Super/Stock Combo
 

I just checked the entry for S/SS. It says $350, includes 2 days (Thur. and Fri.) testing. No other details. Anyone find round money, or ladder info., etc.?
