Ed & Vic,

You guys missed a very good Race @ MIR this past weekend .. It
was Sunny & Hot , but no rain on Sat. & Sunday ... I think everyone was very surprised how well everything went ... You could race your Stocker in Mod & Stock Class at the same race and many did ...
There were a couple small problem's ,but a great first Race & will only get better ... I said that I don't like buy-backs , but in this case it work out well ... It was a true re-entry, you had to win an extra round to get back into the 2nd round ... There were racers there from all over the east coast; Canada,SC,NC,GA,FL,VA,WV,PA,NY,NJ,OH, etc...
We were all upset that there weren't more racers , but it wasn't for lack of effort by Summit & IHRA & MIR ... They did a great job and I
know that the Oct. Race at VMP will be even better ... Last year's VMP was a great success & well attended for Big Money ... Yes, we all have to make choices where to Race & how far to travel ?
You really need to attend an IHRA race and see for yourself what you are missing .... See you in Oct. 14-16 @ VMP .........
