Tri-State Stock/Super Stock Association Race #3
Saturday, June 30
Pittsburgh Raceway Park, New Alexandria PA
US 22, approx 20 miles east from Monroeville exit on the Turnpike
2nd Annual Carl Schodde-Bob Butter Memorial S/SS Race
This is the second annual race honoring two of the legends of Pittsburgh area Class Racing. Bob "Beaver" Butter and Carl "Holeshot" Schodde. This will be a 1/4 mile race, as all our races are. We are runing in rotation with the track's weekly bracket program. Gates open at 9 am, big car time trials begin around 12:30 pm. Two time trials, then eliminations. Maybe a third time trial if time allows. If so, we will do a Best Package Run. Anyone can run the time trial. Those wishing to do so may pay five dollars, and put a dial-in on the back window. Best package, excluding redlights and breakouts, wins the pot.
S/SS race info
-**100 entry
-Any and all NHRA and IHRA-legal S/SS cars welcome.
-Must dial your Class Index or quicker (using current IHRA/old NHRA Index).
-No heads-up runs or qualifying, due to lack of scales and fuel check at the track.
-After the final time trial, we will hold a drivers meeting at my table (probably near the rear of the staging lanes). Pay your **100, draw a card, and we will set the ladder for round one.
This is the third of seven events for our season. There is still time to join our points program, for **25 (twenty-five). Best four of the five remaining races will count. We will pay the top three finishers, and third place will earn at least their **25 back. Our remaining four races after this are a pair of doubles. Sat-Sun Sept 15-16 back at Pittsburgh, and Sat-Sun November 3-4 in Hagerstown MD, which is roughly an hour or less from Breezewood PA at the I-70/I-76 split. Both are **50 Saturday/**100 Sunday entry fees. Sunday November 4th in H-town will pay **2,000, or more, to win guaranteed.
If this race (June 30) should happen to be rained out, we will make it up at Quaker City on July 28. I have a rain-date, if needed, at Pittsburgh (Sept 29), but I want to save that in case either of the races at Pittsburgh Sept 15-16 are rained out.
So, we will run the make-up of the June 30 PRP race, if needed, at Quaker on July 28 or Aug 11. The (named) Butter-Schodde race will be called that, on Sunday Sept 16 as part of the two-day, two race PID/Keystone Reunion weekend. And, if one of those two Sept races rain out, we still have Sept 29 at PRP to use, if needed.
Any questions, feel free to ask.
