$2,000 to win Jackson, Tn Combo - Nov 6th - Roll Call
 

OK gang, its time for some downhome fun at the final installment of the 2011 NitroPlate Combo series at the New Jackson [Tn] Dragway.

So far the track has shown tons of promise with the class cars.
To date this year:

-Matt Hoover has ran -.90 under his NHRA index and says he's ran better times in his record holding SS/TC Chevy S 10 here than he ever has at Bowling Green.

- Alex Owens killer M/SA was dialed -.80 under his NHRA index recently.

-Amy Faulk was dialed -.72 under her index in a lane that had trans fluid dumped on it from start to finish less than two hours prior. [She went to the semis that night]

-Kenny Bomar, runner up at the big $5,000-to win Combo at Bowling Green, has his stick car with the front bumper 3 feet in the air.

-About a dozen cars have ran better here than the current IHRA record or minimum. [How bout a record run soon ya'll?]

So here's a thought: if Bowling Green can draw over 60 cars, according to Jimmy Bridges, for a $1,000 to win race, how many Combo racers will invade Jackson!

The track features a brand new concrete burnout box followed by a 285-foot laser leveled concrete launch pad.

New expanded pits feature fresh asphalt.

So whose gonna be there to take the guaranteed $2,000 to win purse?

And as the Announcer for the day, I get the honor of calling combo events since 1993 at Music City. I can still here those small block stick cars in my sleep! Oh and help a guy out please, bring a little cheat sheet on your car/driver. Like: Engine size/HP rating, accomplishments like Nat'l/Div event wins, former record holder, Div Champ etc. Its a chance to brag on yourself a little bit!

Gates open Sunday Nov 6th at 10 ct, time trials start at Noon ct. Entry only $50

Quick update folks.

Don't forget to set your clocks back this Sat night before going to bed.
If not, you might show up at the gate at 9 am ct instead of 10 ct. Might not be a bad idea given the buzz about the Combo meet.

Weather forecast looks fantastic with lots of cool fall air that engines
L-O-V-E!

Call Track Manager David Glidewell's personal cel, listed in this threads opening, with any questions.

Oh yeah, about the race's buzz, pop quiz: What two former NHRA Super Stock World Champions just committed to being there this weekend?
