What if ?

Would this only be four national event style races a year? Or will this also tie into the local class combo races like ECSSA, SSSSA, etc?

I'm in. After thinking about this for several years I'm not so sure that the super classes shouldn't be included also. However, minus all the electrical start/stop stuff. Someone with lots more knowledge than me about this type racing will know more. Might as well pack the place at the bigger facilities. More entry dollars means more payout and more profit if management does their job. I also would be in favor of starting from scratch as far as index/hp/tech infractions etc.

How about letting in Nostalgia PRO GAS 9.90, foot brake and no electronics. It was fun back then.

Myron, Gritts are great with Grape Jelly and a little milk.

If you allow the .90 classes or a bracket class you would up the car counts and that would encourage the track owner to have the event. Unless you have deep enough pockets to rent a track for the weekend.

p.s. You could still be "THE SHOW" even with the other classes

Myron,

I think you live a little too far south for grits don't you? I'd say Georgia/Alabama is the southern cut-off for them.
I live south of the Mason Dixon line, but grits haven't caught on too much here. -unless you count Cracker Barrell. They serve them.

no offense to anyone I hope.

Damn....I thought Myron said "GIRLS" instead of "GRITS"....lol. He had me going there for a bit.

And the 10.90 class the same way, although I would allow trans brakes but NO other electronics or air operated stuff. It help with car counts.
