Beech Bend, being an NHRA track, might be pressured by the NHRA to not have the race, (see the earlier post by Adger Smith). If that is the case, an IHRA track may be a viable option.

I wonder if Bill Kapolka from Milan Dragway would be interested. Milan is an IHRA track that lost the Motor City Nationals. As far as I know with the exception of the NMCA and possibly Pinks, I don't know if Milan has any other large events not even an IHRA points meet. There is another good possibility, Milan is a nice facility that could handle the cars and people.

How about Charlotte? I'll bet NHRA wouldn't try to strong-arm Bruton...the city of Concord tried that and you see where it got them!

Charlotte...........Now That's a great idea ! ! ! Talk to Doug Herbert. He has the connections.

Does anybody know what ever happened to US 31 in Morroco,In ? That wasn't a bad place.
