I disagree Jim, the tow is about the same for us as it is for you. The only reason we didn't go is that I knew it would get rained out sat and I already had a previous commitment Sunday ( the race originally did not have a rain date). I think that the payout is great ( even at $5k with 32 cars). I think that with some corporate sponsorship to bring the entry down some and you will pack the house with good weather. I can't wait for Scott to try this again.

Thanks again to all that were there. I'm in planning stages again. I personally have too much on my plate now to do something before the begining of the year but......I'm not going to say I'm not thinking about it all the time...Maybe weekend after CAJUN SPORTSNATIONALS??......Say MARCH 24TH-25TH 2012 ? And a Two Day event??

if you can arrange for us to leave our stuff there in between that would be perfect

Scott, how about a Weds or Thurs race before the Sports, cause you will get alot of people coming from events the weekend before like the Gators, might be something to kick around with Pat on.

Joe that's excellent idea

Hats off to Scott for trying his azz off to make this work. He called me several times to keep me updated and believed that this race would be ran, I just couldnt make the trip this far with the forecast. It will definately work on a "good weather" weekend and forecast. As far as the price goes, if you cant afford to make a race like this with this payout then you probably do not need a class car. People drive farther for a divisional with much less payout.

I don't think it's very polite for anyone to judge that I (have raced class for 46 years) should not be racing class!

I don't think that we can stuff any more into CajunNationals, But I've been wrong before I still think the weekend after is better , Maybe a $10,000.00 Stock/Superstock Combo race wed. and a $10,000.00 Stock and $10,000.00 Superstock Eliminator with HEADS UP, NO RECORDS....... and Jeremy don't turn a positve into a negative. He was directing that towards me not you. Please post your thoughts........

Scott, first of all I want to thank you very much for all the effort and work you put in to this, I am sorry it didn't work out because of the weather, if you see fit to do this again I hope the weather is as good as it can be.

I would have liked to been able to come but knowing I'm not the best driver in the group and the chances of me winning money is realistically not so great plus all the travel expenses and over $330.00 to enter is just too expensive for me at that time.

I hope you will see fit to do this again and I will support you in every way if I can at the time.

Thanks Jerry Davis Stk4168
