ATTENTION IN THE PIT$!! $10,000.00 to win !!!!

scott helms · 10-02-2011, 10:05 PM

Everybody throws stuff out there so it's my turn. I'm curious if there are any Classracers that would like to come to a Combo Race @ No Problem or State Capital and run for a purse say $10,000.00 to win $3500.00 R/U and Payback Entry thru Semi's, and a portion of cash in Quarters.( Based on a 64 car field) Thinking of the Weekend of Thanksgiving on Sat. for a $300.00 Entry? Or would you prefer a $100.00 Entry and run for a Purse of $1000.00, P.S. NO HEADS UP RUNS! and we will be able to weigh class cars. You MUST Own or Drive A Stock or Superstock Car to Answer This!!! Thanks

We would like to run a race either at No Problem or Houston, If you could let IHRA cars run we would bring Sharon's stocker and run both cars.
Bill said to read this and give my opinion. I am all for it. We just disagree on price (as usual).
He likes the $10,000 and I like the lower figure but you only list winning $1000. What would runner-up get and how many places getting paid either way? I had heard of s/ss combo where they could run NHRA cars and IHRA cars. If you do that, following N or I rules for each car, then we could both run.

Dad and I would be in for sure, especially if you could do some sat night programs. I think heads ups would be a plus though.

I would go if you had one in Houston. Maybe cut the purse in half and charge 150.00 entry.

Scott how about the thursday before the southern sport nationals?

denbreeden · 10-03-2011, 10:07 AM

Does the $300 entry include a swamp tour,lol?? It's a bit of a haul but I would try to make it for a big payout.

This is what I need to know. I figure with a little help there are at least 20 cars within one hour of either track, so I like the higher pay out and less travel. Yes, it would be Ihra and Nhra thats why no heads up. Someone mentioned record runs, but just looking to see if we could do a race and maybe a series. Yeah Charlie we were thinking the same thing If your alredy going what's one more day. This all started wih Kevin and I discusing one last race with a BIG PAYOUT like Vegas last year a Combo race in between a National and Divisional. They did a $350.00 I think and advertised $10,000 not enough cars so it ended up $7500.00 I think. They said 100 cars (and got 70 I think)

There is a big bracket race at Crandall Thanksgiving weekend. That might drop car counts alot. Here is the link http://www.dallasraceway.com/site/sc...cket-nationals

Great idea Mr. Helms!!!
Likely need to walk before you can run though...the lower entry with an obvious smaller payout makes sense....what do I know I'm just a dummy from Canada!!! Kudos for getting the ball rolling!!.. Who knows a Cajun/Redneck combo stock/superstock Association may just be around the corner!!!..the CRSSSA... quite possibly a great alternative to the _HRA choices we have available to us now!! Run Forrest Run!!!
If the budget allows....I'd donate my money to the Winner!!!
there's my "for what its worth"....going back to making ICE CUBES!!

Later.....
Newbomb!!

K Stubbs · 10-03-2011, 05:29 PM
