ASRA S/SS race Saturday Epping,NH - Page 2

Greg , It is a great idea and has been talked about previously. The only issue with it is that scheduling is soooo tough that we are just numb by this time of year, trying to just get our regular schedule in is tough. There are 6 weekends left before november when the tracks close up here and in that time we have, ATCO div1, Sportsnationals (columbus), Richmond National, Dutch Classic, one all star race and the shootout race. I think that is 6, lets hope mother nature goes easy on us.

I promise to ask Dave Ley what he thinks about a race between the 2 associations

As far as the race that we just rained out yesterday, We most likely won't make a decision about the rain date until after Atco.

Back in 2001, i went cross country with my family and we raced at the 50th anniversary nnational event in pomona. it was on the 4th of july. We are at the track racing and it showers for about 15 minutes. No big deal, it dries quickly and I think they lost maybe an hour or so.

Do you know that 2 west coast racers came up to me and appologized for the weather, Ha I thanked them and said NO PROBLEM at all. We are from Division 1 and we RAIN OUT every other race

True story and as far as ASRA races this year, we may have rained out more than that average

Maybe the board members of both associations could get together & plan one?
One year at they're track of choice, the next year at yours?

Just a thought?

Man you are thinking I couldnt of said it better myself.......... Hmmmm....
What a way to build the all stars up more than they are..
Also it would add alot to east coast racing
As far as woking it in it could be done at the opens and the division races
You wouldnt have to have many rounds at each to make it happen
You could start with the best 6 from each to start and make it work from there
It could even be done at several races

If you build it they will come............

November 4th at Englishtown... ?

Greg Barsamian · 09-18-2007, 09:07 AM

Thought I'd get a rise out of Mr. Superstock for posting?

The reasoning is that racers in both organizations "wont cross bridges"
"Thats why we have Divisionals & National Opens"

You could even have a race within a race, "The Brat-Pack" vs "The Wolfpack"?
After Englishtown last year the "Brats got spanked on the practice tree! (gave up they're "Doo-Rags")

Mark has a "good point" have a race like this on any Sunday after a National Open?
Why not?

An East Coast Stock/Superstock/All-Star Racing Shootout would be a BLAST?

Do ASRA Top 16 in points vs. ECSSS Top 16 in points. Any track, anywhere, anytime. Lets get it on, ASRA will dominate!!!

I think a stock/superstock race with both groups would be a lot of fun.But for all racers,not just top 16.A bunch of guys having a great time. Also I would recommend a race or two at Sanair in Canada. Was just there for stock/superstock race and had a great time.

Doug Blackley · 09-18-2007, 05:35 PM

ECSSS already has a date that Dave mentioned in November. It'd be cool to see a bunch of ASRA guys head down and run with them. We're already planning on being there too.

Joe Santangelo · 09-18-2007, 06:46 PM

There is a perfect spot on RT 2 here in CT between Glastonbury and Marlborough about 1/2 mile long, straight and recently paved, that would be perfect....I know 'both' officers in Marlborough and several from Glastonbury..I'm sure we can work something out !....and my father still has most of the timing equipment from Connecticut Dragway !!!! What's up ? lol
