Mike, not trying to be too critical of your comments but at the Columbus LODRS...of the 7 D1 Stock entries....one was from Indiana...and the rest from Western NY and Western PA...
Not critical -- that was precisely my point! There is virtually no overlap at LODRS races, meaning that the total number of potential Stock and Super Stock competitors within a day's tow is astronomical. 300-350 cars for the event is quite attainable.

Hi Michael
Is there an entry list of cars that are going to be there yet? Maybe you can start one the more cars on the list may draw more cars if that makes sense. If it is going to be bigger than Indy would like to be there.

Thanks James

All of 'em!

Lists would not be representative of the final turnout, as there are people who are not online, or folks who won't know if they can make it or not until the last minute. I can tell you that almost everyone I've spoken to has said "I'll be there!" I have strolled through the pits and had folks that I don't even know holler, "HEY! I'm coming to that race next year!" With our date, location, and lead time on the event, I believe we will rival the original US Class Nationals. We should be in the 300-350 cars neighborhood -- perhaps higher if things go well. I will continue to work on sponsors, staffing, and extras for the event all year long.

For long-distance travelers, based on the traditional NHRA Div. 3 schedule, we will likely be the week after the Indy LODRS, if you want to make a 'swing' out of things.

The event logo will be undergoing some updating shortly... but I'll get with you via e-mail to handle logos/decals/sponsor agreement, etc.

No. This is an independent event, so any performances will have no bearing on any sanctioning body records, indexes, AHFS, etc.
