So during my lunch break I called and talked to Bob over at Numidia about a .90 big $$$ race for Super Comp, Super Gas and if we get enough interest maybe Super Street. Remember I'm not in this for myself, I'm a racer like everyone else on here and it's time for us to start branching out on our own. I won't be racing that weekend so I will be working with the Numidia Crew to make sure everything runs smooth cause the last thing I want it to get a bad rap. Here are the details:
I picked Numidia because it is central located for D1 and D3 racers and some D2 guys if they wanted to come up. I modeled the pay structure off of some of the feedback on this site. I think what Tom Goldman said is correct and we would average about 75 to 85 cars per class. I also looked around at some track schedules such as Maple Grove and Atco to see what was going on those weekends and didn't schedule anything on those weekends if their was a big race going on. The date I came up with is Saturday, August 27th...it's the weekend before Indy and on a Saturday so anyone who is traveling to Indy can race on Saturday, load up and travel on Sunday to get to Indy for the gates to open. So here you go....FEEDBACK AND SPONSORS are more then welcomed and anyone who would like to help out feel free to e-mail me at
