Thanks for all of your effort to put on a great race for Stock and Super stock. Maybe try to move the race to a different track more centralized. Numidia is way up in the NE corner. Now that you live in NC maybe try Galot or Reynolds. Lots of racers with in 500 miles of those two tracks. Atlanta would have been a perfect location but we all know that is gone.
No way I can go to Numidia. 1000 mile tow for me but I would do 500 miles for sure.

Had a great time racing the old firebird. Even though the car count wasn't there, Tim Fletcher, Kenny and the gang did a great job putting the event on. Had a blast.

There were 160+ stock/super stockers at the Numidia divisional 2 weeks ago. I would say it’s a pretty central location for most D1 racers and even some D3 racers. Only about 1/3 of that number showed up. Can you even win 5k at a National event these days?

Great race, no sitting around, low entry fee, large payout & giveaways.
Hopefully Ken and Tim keep this thing going next year.

That was a great turn out for the divisional for sure. Typically the non NHRA races need to be centrally located to draw from many divisions. My bet is there were almost no racers from north of the track that came down. Just throwing out some ideas to keep it going. The Carolina stock super stock assn gets 30-40 cars at their races. Move it to Galot and add those numbers to the field that was there last weekend and you have a pretty good car count. Galot is still a long tow for me but I might opt to make the trip.
Fuel costs and inflation are gobbling up disposable income is down too.

Two of us from Canada this year...I'm gonna stick my long neck out there and predict triple that number the next time. It's the only way that I know to prove that this is a GREAT deal and well worth the tow from "up here".
