Anybody planning to attend?

Really would like to go to one of these stick shift races, but not sure if I can make this one

STAGED · 09-04-2013, 12:49 PM

Me and about 50+ Prostick cars will be there. Hoping we get several members of other stick groups there as well!

Happens this weekend, perfect weather!

I think this race was a little short on promotion. Yellowbullet and Class Racer are the only places it saw it advertised.
Great race, great track and great payout. The weather will be perfect.
I expect 70+ cars.

We just got home from the race. Had a great time at a super competitive race. Lots of .000 to .005 reaction times and dead on runs. My son went out in the first round with a .004 light and an 9.85 (1000 Ft. race) on 9.86 on the brakes. Who ever says a stick car isn't consistant needed to be at MIR this weekend.

There were 71 cars in the first round on Saturday. The second chance race Saturday evening was a Pro Tree/ Dial In Bracket Race that allowed the first, second and third round losers to race a separate race. It was a huge success my view point.

Everyone was talking about a future rail.

Please explain why 1000 ft and not 1/8 or 1/4 mile race rule.

Some of the racers were from the southeast where they race 1/8 mile mostly. MIR reached out to them, and along with the 1/4 mile racers reached that agreement. Royce then installed a MPH clock/photo cell for the 1000 ft timer. Seemed like everyone liked it, not very often you see 71 stick cars these days. Not many NHRA/IHRA Stock or Super/Stock cars there though, hopefully it will catch on.
