May sounds like a long ways away, but in reality, we're barely over two months away from the Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals! Our spectator advertising campaign begins next week. If anyone owns a retail store or shop in the Ohio region that would like to carry some of these discount spectator coupon flyers, please contact me at beard@looserocker.com

Good looking flyer, Michael. 10 bucks a day for spectators is much better than I was expecting, for all we'll get in return. Is there a 3 day pass available? Just planning ahead.

Regular admission price for Spectators and Crew is $15. We're producing thousands of $5-off discount coupons that will be distributed in various ways. They will be at the Detroit Autorama next week, the Motor City Hot Rod & Drag Racing Expo March 22-23, then later in the JEGS retail stores in Columbus, Grandpa's Garage in Springfield, OH, and more. There will be similar coupons running in the April issue of the PaperMINT coupon circular, reaching 300,000 homes in the Columbus market.

Each spectator flyer will have three $5-Off coupons on it, one for each day. People are more than welcome to pick up multiple flyers for family and friends. (Difference between "Crew" and "Spectator" is that spectators will not have Restricted Area wristbands) There's no particular 'weekend pass' discount. Rather than charge $20/day and then start discounting for 2-day or 3-day passes, we decided to keep it straightforward and simple at $15/day. Crew can purchase their restricted area wristband covering all three days at the gate on Thursday or Friday.

The discount program is intended to reach an outside spectator audience. Whatcha think, can we put 3,000 people/day in the stands?

There is a car on the flyer that looks familiar.

Dave Szerlag and Luke Bogacki will have them in their booth (Motor City Hot Rod & Drag Racing Expo) This is the booth backdrop, so you know what to look for: (I do much of the design work for their marketing materials)

Still trying to keep up with Ed Carpenter here...




When you kick off an event, why not kick it off with a clutch pedal?

Trumble Racing Engines will pay $200/WIN, $100/RU, plus $300 to the #1 Qualifier, all in the SS/K Shootout, one of the featured classes during the heads-up Lucas Oil Class Eliminations to be contested on Friday, May 2.

Thanks once again to SS/K racer Ed Carpenter who has worked tirelessly to put together these sponsorship programs for his class.

Michael, will I be able to race your event with my 64 Hemi car? I have cylinder heads that were NHRA legal until August of 2013, but but now they're declared illegal?
I also have a rebored cam tunnel, Pro stock style transmission, multi-disc clutch, Carbs that are not in the original mounting configuration, digital electronics etc, etc. But all of that is OK with them
I have an illegal 1/4-20 bolt hole.
Me thinks that NHRA has a 1/4-20 issue, I'm hoping you don't.
I need a new place to race because I dont have 20K to fix my 1/4-20 holes.
If I can race with you, I may open up the bottom of all my 1/4-20 bolt holes because it make my car sooooo fast.
If I can't race with you, maybe you can reclassify me as a SS/AH. I think that the AH stands for Any Hole or All Hole or Allowed Holes or some kind of Hole?
I look forward to your answer, unlike some organizations, I know you will give me an answer.
In case this tongue in cheek post doesn't ring with you, be glad your not involved with this nonsense.
Really, I hope this event is successful beyond your wildest dreams and the northern race breed's a southern, eastern, western, mid-southern etc.
