Hey Eric,

I'm not trying to dump on this race, just trying to get clarification. Someone said that it paid $10,000 to win, but that's not how I read it. BTW, Thank you to PC Richards for sponsoring this series. I think the grade point goes to the lesser paying race in Napierville, but with a lesser entry. Again, thank you to Napierville; I was very proud to have won that race. I think this is about a 450 mile tow for me with a lot of tolls; about the same as for you. Lastly, as to which car I can win with, have you been talking with Nancy? LOL!

Where are you in VT Greg? If you live middle to north end, consider travelling through Canada. There is a highway to bypass Montreal; no significant tolls - great roads for the most part.

No it is not typical of a S/SS event.
IMHO,$325 is a bargain!! Try entering a NHRA national, you pay a lot more for a lot less.Oh but wait,..you can win a Wally at a national...that makes it worth it.(embed sarcasm here).

I will be there...in IHRA Crate Motor trim.

This is great! and $10,000 US, that's what $30,000 Canadian? Course for us it's $1500 Canadian to enter too. LOL!

Great to see, and a race in the Miramichi this year too, things are looking up for us north of the 49th!

Thank you for posting a breakdown of the payout. This should be a great race, but I couldn't see how it could possibly pay $10,000 to the winner each day. We have 4 multi-day races in 4 weeks, and I don't see how I can hit them all. I have never been to Cayuga and am thinking of skipping Englishtown to attend this one.

Dave, I live in the southeast corner of VT, so my best route is over the mountain to Albany, and straight out I-90 to Niagara Falls. I think I'd enjoy travelling through Canada, but it would be a lot of extra miles.

Lastly, the Gaffney's have never received adequate recognition for their support in Napierville. Thank you Sean and Kevin.

How's that for jumping all around?

Hello,
I'm providing information on U.S./ Canada border crossing. The U.S. Passport Card can be used to enter the United States from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Bermuda at land border crossings or sea ports-of-entry and is more convenient and less expensive than a passport book. The passport card cannot be used for international travel by air.Card is good for 10 years. Two ways to get your passport card,
1. Download a " DS11 " form, fill out and submit 2(2x2) CVS photos with app.
Go to your town hall and let them send out the pkg. The fee is $25.00 to the town and a check for $30.00 to Dept of State. Also, US post office.
2. https://travel.state.gov/
Going on this site is also the price of $55.00. Passports cost $135.00
Don't forget that the US dollar goes an long way in Canada.
Your fellow Canadians will be happy of your presence and the track owners will be happy about a bigger car count especially the Brunet family in Napierville.
Hope to see you in Canada!!!
