IHRA Div 4 points race this weekend...
 

As the title says, it's here at TRP (Tulsa Raceway Park) next weekend, and it is 1/4 mile. The guys that think it's not enough of a challenge need to come collect some easy money. You may even have some fun to boot. It's a nice facility, you might even find you like it. Same rules, same cars (except for crate motor stockers, but they still race the shoe polish too) same indexes, friendly people, etc. Gates open for parking at noon Friday, test and tune session for entrants only that evening from 4:00 'till 9:00 pm. Saturday gates open at 8:00 am, qualifying begins, I believe, at 9:00 am. Same thing again Sunday.

If you find it actually is, as you originally thought, beneath you, you don't have to go to another one.

Ed I wish we could make it. Not going to happen. Car is almost done, but need to go test it with the new engine, clutch, trans etc. Work is talking about more Border Operations too. We plan on being in Houston next month. Hope to see you soon. Good luck in Tulsa. ED

Is this a double race, what are there entry fees, are there motel rooms to be had, what are the payouts{not that I would win anyway} Thanks Tom

Tom, it is a double race weekend. You only have to be there Saturday and Sunday. Several hotels within a couple of miles. Here is a link to the flyer:

Ed, I wish you could make it. I'm looking forward to seeing that new engine run. Sure made some good dyno numbers. Your son keeps helping out like that your gonna have to break down and let him drive it. :D

If nothing falls off mine out here or at Memphis, I'll see you guys in Houston. James is getting his 3-to-4 speed change-over done this week. Should have it in here this weekend.

Careful at the border. I don't think those drug gangs down there like you guys too well.

Take care, Ed

Kenny, I'm going to try to make that one also. I was going to the national event down there but got so busy the week before I just could not afford to close up the shop and go.
