Good luck to all that attend. I will not be making the trip this year. Several asked if I was doing the K Shootout again. I had major back surgery in May(rods,plates and screws) so I'm unable to drive until next year. If there is a class nationals III ill see about another Shootout. Have fun and stay cool....

Michael, I think Mr. Paul that manages Memphis International Raceway would work with you on an event like this. I would love to see a more centralized location for this event.

I appreciate that, but we need a substantial car count to cover the strong payouts and all of the extras we do. We are currently in a fairly central location per capita. We'll have to see how we do this year and next with different schedules within this strong draw area. I like Memphis, but unfortunately, even in its NHRA National Event days, they did not drawn the cars necessary to support this kind of event. It would take a serious commitment from the racers.

Looked into it last year. Prohibitively expensive.

IHRA Cars are shunned at Bowling Green for their other S/SS combo races.
No reason to go where you are aren't welcomed especially when you are the paying customer.
