Thoughts/Opinions on Scheduled $25k S/SS Races

SS3718 · 11-04-2020, 08:51 PM

With the announcement this week of two planned S/SS races that will pay the winner $25,000 to win, what is everyone’s opinion on the race?

Will it be successful? Will it be supported better than Michael Beard’s Class Racer Nationals from several years ago at Columbus?

Will St. Louis draw 128 cars in Stock and Super Stock?

Will the Easter Weekend 2021 Date hurt car count?

What’s everyone’s opinion on the format? Laddered 128 cars in Stock and Super Stock with the winner of each vying for the $25,000.

Fire Away!

Great idea hopefully it takes off ! If enough of these get scheduled through out the year, who in there right mind would pay 330 to enter a race to win a 1000 to 1500 anymore ? Bring it !!

Build it and we will come. Not sure if Easter would be the best weekend to do it. BP

Has anyone caught wind of the entry fee?...the website has no info as yet.

My best guess is $500.00 per $25,000.00 race. J.R.

Entry Fee is set and will be on the flyer which I’m hoping to post in next week or so but entry will be $699 for BOTH 25k main events. Not EACH.....BOTH.
