Southwest Nostalgia Drags..Stock /Super Combo

[Mark Yacavone]

Update on S/SS Combo.

Over the weekend , I had a fan of S/SS racing post $100 for the Best Package Shootout.

There's the setup then:
Track opens at 5:00 PM Friday the 21st of Nov. This is a track T&T event. You will be paying WHMP track fees for Friday night
You are welcome to stay in the pits overnight , but we will collect our Saturday fees on Friday night if you are staying. You only have to tech in once, but you'll have to submit both tech cards at that time.
If there is enough interest, I will conduct a gambler race for you guys on Friday night.
I have the track's permission to do that.

Saturday, the 22nd.gates open 7 am.
You purchase your tech card and crew passes at gate 2...The middle gate by the VIP building.
See me or Mike Mingo to sign in with your lane fee. (100% pay back of this fee)

All classes will get three TT's if all goes well, in rotation.

Please tech in with your NHRA index at the top of the tech card, as soon as possible ,so we can get the tech cards to the computer operator for first round qualifying.

Sportsman ladder by qualifying order.
I will be checking weight and doing a little look over at the scales, 1st and 2nd Q runs.
However ..NO HEADS-UP RUNS IN ELIMINATIONS ..I just don't have the tech personnel for that.
Qualifying is for bragging rights and for the ladder only. If someone wants to sponsor or post an award for no.1 , please do.
.
First two hits are Q runs. 3rd run is the Best package shoot out .
Dial it in ... Must be on the green side and over index to win it.
Tree will come down staggered.
As stated, $100 dollars posted for this, so far. I might add to it if we have a good turnout, so bring all your friends and neighbors, so we can do this again in March.

Any questions? Call me

Good luck in Vegas ,guys.

Mark,

I want in.......can you all make me an "honorary" stocker member for a day. I have a 98 camaro with a whomping v6.....fuel injected.....very base model. What would be the natural class for this comb? I want to get into U/SA......I've been hearing about some wicked Maverick running around the neighborhood here in Tempe.

I could dump the antifreeze out of it for the day, I better as there would be a good chance it will.

Or heck I owe Don one....we can save that till the final. I can drive over to Wildhorse Pass.......but may need a tow getting home.

....good chance it will break......

Brad, Thanks for bumping up the thread...I don't know what else to say....

Good luck to those going to Pomona.

We are looking good here for the 22nd.
It's supposed to be low to mid 70's hear next week .
I haven't got a report from Vegas yet about our local racers..

Specifically, here's some I have not heard from;

Chris Ashley
Eric Bell
Ray Menard
Setters family (part time..snowbirds)
Hawk Bros.
Jack Foshee
Angelo Philips
Harry Doolittle
Bill Nelson
and ??
SoCal ? Vegas? El Paso? Albuquerque?
Anyone talk to these people about our event?

Thanks

Oh..We will be parking cars NHRA event style ..Straight rows disregarding road course through pits.
Of course S/SS can all pit together on the upper level past the Comp pits or at the quarter mile scoreboards but those spots go fast.

Just heard from a racer from Teuton's Dark Side, and from the North Country.
He'll be down Friday night. The early snow up there must have convinced him.

Won't happen here....Sunny and 70 degrees rest of the week.

Who else?

Will there be fuel available at the track? Any racing going on Sunday?
