Stay Tuned!

By "a little later next year," are you still thinking in May, Michael? I'd hope you wouldn't have to get into June to pull it off,,, just thinking out loud. Thanks.

Can't wait to run at this event again. Really was a good time.

2015 Mello Yellow schedule shows: Southern Nationals, Atlanta on May 15-17.
Kansas Nationals, Topeka on May 22- 24.
Don't know if these would affect participation, due to distance from Columbus, but perhaps some racers will "bundle" a couple race weekends in a row. Too bad LODRS schedule isn't out yet. Theres some pretty attractive flight packages going right now for those of us who would fly in to spectate as soon as we get a date.

Class Nationals needs it own National Records.
Then use the NR as the Index to runoff of.

Hey Michael I'll be willing to help next year if possible and here's just a thought how about a Dave Layer memorial race or something in memory of Dave ?

I wanted to check with the family first, but yes, that's a great idea. With his contributions to the performance side of our sport, we felt it would be appropriate to both remember and honor him with the CIC race. Dave was one of the first ones to step up and support that program. Henceforth, it will be known as the Dave Layer Memorial Quick 32.

We should have our event date in the next week or two. Also, if you've followed the "2015 Rules" thread, you may have already seen that we will be using the new NHRA "Factory" class structures. We did our own "FX" classes in Stock last year, so we're happy to see NHRA take this step on their own in both Stock and Super Stock. We'll order more Lucas Oil Class Eliminations trophies!
