Re: Carolina Class Racers Association
This does mean that every racer must take 1 dive against me in these races. Gotta take it easy on the class virgin

Re: Carolina Class Racers Association
Dang it Beard! You beat me to it.
Figured since I was almost finished I would go ahead and throw it up here. I went a much more simple route than you did though...

Re: Carolina Class Racers Association
Got bored and threw together another one. Not trying to steal any work from Beard here, just need some practice and critique.
Not as "Jazzy", more on the simple side. Even if Beard does the stickers, I would love to get involved by doing some shirts. I would be willing to do small runs as to not have too much overstock and do them close to cost. Herb or Tracy, Do you know the exact date on the meeting?

Re: Carolina Class Racers Association
Lee, I got my new firejacket today. I'll bring it with me to the $20K Footbrake at Piedmont this weekend so that you can do my Duck Tape logo embroidery for me again. How's your business card design coming together?
Back on topic... I think having a cohesive series, schedule, and points chase could build quite well off of the existing combos that Tracy, Herb, and others have been doing on their own. I think it'd be a win-win for everyone. Might want to check with Gump or Beaver and see if it would make sense to have a Top Stock show along with CCRA events. I second Herb's nomination of Angela as Official Photographer. Lee and I both can probably help with website stuff.

I agree that this could be a win-win for everyone if it comes together well. Top-Stock could be a great show to bring in spectators. Put Beard on the graphics and sticker designs, and I'll code up a site and keep it updated. What would be cool to see is a combo race that could pay $5,000 or in that range to win. I know Atco had the $10,000 combo race, and I feel like this sort of race could be pulled off in this area if planned and promoted correctly.

Re: Carolina Class Racers Association
Hey
How 'bout a Big Payout Stock Elim. North vs South ??????? Like a $10,000 race like David Ley did at Atco. You can do the same for Super Stock. I was talking with Pat Joffrion about this type of race. Maybe at the end of October, just have to pick a halfway point from Maine to Georgia. Or you can have 2 races, 1 at a North track & 1 at a South track.... Anybody like this kind of idea????? Maybe Herb Jr. can put out a poll question to see if there's any interest in it. Just my 2 cents Pistol Pete Dutko 1374 J/SA |

Meeting date is 2nd Saturday in January you need to RSVP as I have no clue how big of a room to get. The Cutting Board is a nice place where you can eat about anything ,burger, chicken or steak related. My email is herb@piedmontdragway.com so please email ifyou can come and the number of people. They can hold 275 or as small as 8, I just want to reserve the right amount of space.
Herb Jr The schedule for the first 3 races will intrest everyone trust me. No I wont tell anyone |
