Double entering at National Opens

casper · 08-08-2007, 02:45 PM

Do you agree with being able to enter a car in more than one category at National Opens ? Example, entering a stocker in the combo race and the Pro category on the same day.

Hey Casper,

Don't forget to ask for those Buy-backs, you should have atleast 3 per combo !!! you are Kidding Right.............. Dave...1033/stock(RV-455)

One car-one driver-one entry
no buy backs

that's the way it is @ the Fall Classic @ Indy....you CAN run pro & stock....or pro & super/stock it happened last year!

When you are already spending so much money to be there, it makes financial sense to do both.

I'm one of the people who did this double enter this weekend at 'the hat'.

But i dont think i gained any other advantage, trust me. My car picks up .04 to .06 after the hot lap.

I also needed every possible minute i could get to cool down the car, which ended up stressing the battery, which made time more critical.

It was fun, but also the most stressfull hectic weekend of racing i have ever had.

But i think i'd do it again. I'm just going to up grade my cooling system before i do it next time.....

And what about the National Open in Sonoma where people entered cars in stock which were not legal for that stock combination??

Greg, wasn't the bracket race completely separate at Indy? I didn't run last year, but in 2005 I ran both Super Street and Pro bracket. The bracket race was Saturday night only, and it's only 1/8 mile, too. I raced a Super Stocker first round, and a Stocker 2nd. I don't see why anyone would have a problem with them running the bracket race? Everyone on the grounds has the same opportunity.
