Nitroplater Stk/SS Shootout at Numidia - Sept 13th & 14th - Page 6

BKSG1198 · 07-04-2013, 08:20 PM

Want to THANK Bob Bender and the "Fat Girl" for carrying the logo of the event at the next upcoming events. Bob & Penny have been a friend of the family for 30 to 40 years and we always make sure when we are at Cecil we go out to dinner with them. So a big THANKS to Bob for the support! I know about 20-30 stock & super stock racers and I'm getting to know more and more as I go to more events and Bob has helped me to get to know more. I must say the support from the racers has been insane and a big Thanks to Mike Ficacci, Ian Hill, Bob Bender and Joe Demarzo who have been carrying the logos throughout the East Coast.

Happy 4th of July to everyone and a Big Thanks to all the Service Men and Women who risk their lives everyday so that we can do what we love....DRAG RACE!

Time to thank a few more sponsors because without their support this race would never happen. Next up I'd like to Thank Lenny and Dawn Croteau of Ultimate Converter Concepts. Lenny and Dawn are new supporters to the Nitroplate Stk/SS Shootout but, we supporters of the original CITH event in 2011. Even though they have relocated to North Carolina and left us racers up North to deal with the snow Lenny still makes frequent trips up North to make sure his customers are getting top notch service with his products. On any given day at a Division 1 event you will find at least one Ultimate Converter Concepts T-Shirt or Sticker in the staging lanes worn by Lenny's many, many customers.

Once again Thanks Lenny and Dawn for your continued support and please visit their website or call 704-892-6837 to find out what Ultimate Converter Concepts can do for you!

I spoke with track owner Bob Dimino this weekend as I was up there for the MASGA Races. Just to add a few things onto the list....

As we all know the Englishtown Lucas Oil event is the weekend before the Nitroplate Stk/SS Shootout. Anyone who would like to drop off their trailers following the event may do so to save on travel and gas / tolls. The gates will be open till about 5pm on Sunday the 8th. Numidia has someone on grounds throughout the week to check on things and about the only thing you may have to worry about is Yogi Bear or Bambi stealing anything. The place is under tight security as a lot of racers leave their stuff their throughout the week. We will begin the next round of parking at 12pm on Thursday the 12th.

Also as some of you may know the NHRA Division 1 Bracket Finals will be run at Numidia the following weekend after the Nitroplater Stk/SS Shootout. Anyone who may have qualified at their respected track and wants to leave their trailers at the track may do so. You may have to move them over to the holding area on the cold side. Also since the bracket finals are being held at Numidia they will be putting together 2 big dollar bracket races that will be held on Monday the 16th & Tuesday the 17th that will be open to all racers rather you made the bracket finals or not but, if you didn't make the cut you will have to remove the trailer by Tuesday evening to make way for the bracket finalist.

We will park everyone on the left side of the track and run out of the tower side staging lanes which have been expanded and are great. If we have any overflow we will park them over on cold side of the track.

Remember anyone who is looking for a hotel Hampton Inn in Bloomsburg is the official Hotel of the Nitroplater Stk/SS Shootout. You will have up till Aug 24th to book your room at a discounted "Racers Discount". Please call (570) 380-1020 and it's located on 255 Paper Mill Rd Bloomsburg, PA 17815.

Last but, not least you still have 2 1/2 weeks left before the final pre-entry of $180 is over on Aug 1st.

Proud to have Mike Bassin back for a 3rd year as the official "voice" of the Nitroplate Stock/SS Shootout. Mike did the announcing for last years event along with the inaugural Combo in the Hills event that Brian and Lee did. Mike is very knowledgeable on all forms of racing as he is the weekly announcer for Mason-Dixon Dragway in Maryland. Mike also was the "voice" of Numidia during the NHRA Lucas Oil Series events back in the early 2000's. Mike will be sharing the mic with Bob Reed who is the weekly voice of Numidia Dragway, Bob Dimino & Myself.

As far as starting line / track prep prep goes....who else but, the famous Mike Summers. For all of you D-1 Stock & Super Stockers who go "That guy looks familiar?" Mike was the starter at Maple Grove Raceway and Cecil County Dragway for many years including numerous Lucas Oil Events at those tracks. Mike is one of the very few who still does it "Old School" with scraping the track everyday, using the correct glue and prepping the track in between every class with spraying and gold dust. To show you how good Mike is at last weeks Super Gas event in 2 days of racing excluding qualifying their were 20 - 9.90's put up on the board. I know I'm speaking for the 90 guys but it just tells you how hooked the track was.

Hope to see a lot of supporters for this event. I have put a lot of sweat into this event to make it as big as previous years. I know we all have busy schedules and some say September is not a good month but, we really don't race at all in that month except E-Town and unless you travel 600 miles to Charlotte or to Columbus. Hopefully in 2014 we can make it even larger.

Here is the 1st look at the Quickfuel Technology Stock & Super Stock Combo Shootout logo that will take place on Friday Night at Numidia. This event will be run similar to all the Combo events that you see on the East Coast with Stockers running Super Stockers from 1st round on. Thanks to Quickfuel for coming on board for this event and we may have some more added bonus for the winner and runner-up as we get closer!

Entry Fee: $70.00
Winner: $1,000
Runner-Up: $400
Semi-Finalist: $200
3rd Round Loser: $70

If we get more then 32 entries we will up the purse! Hope to see a lot of racers come out and enjoy 3 days of Stock / SS racing on the Hills of Numidia

Just remember racers this Thursday, August 1st is the final cut-off for the last pre-entry into the Nitroplate Stk/SS Shootout presented by Autometer at Numidia! It looks like my schedule has changed a little bit and I WILL be at Atco this weekend running the Lucas Race in S/G. If anyone wants to enter there you may do so but, after Sunday the gates are closed! Just look for the car below and even if you don't want to enter come over and say Hi....I don't bite!

BKSG1198 · 07-30-2013, 06:46 PM

Just waiting on a few more sponsorship logos but, here is the preview of the 2013 Nitroplate Stock/SS T-Shirts that will be available at the track on Sept 13th & 14th. Still have to get prices on the printing and bulk before they can be sold. Thanks to Jeff Serra from In Motion Solutions for doing the design.

BKSG1198 · 07-31-2013, 09:21 AM

Just got the Ok that the Nitro Lounge is heading East...that's right Nitro Joe Jackson, will be making the trip out from Ohio with the Nitro Lounge to help out with parking, ladders and helping Ashlee out with pairing up cars and anything else I can find him to do. Joe is a man who can do it all and comes from a great drag racing family as both his parents were Event Winners in the .90 Classes with their "Scratcher" cars. Look for the yellow golfcart and the smiling face of Joe to guide you into the Nitroplate Stock/Super Stock Shootout presented by Autometer.

BKSG1198 · 08-05-2013, 01:57 PM

After the smoke has cleared at Atco this weekend and the final cut-off for the Nitroplate Stk/SS Shootout at Numidia passed on Thursday, here is the final list for the pre-entries. From this point on all entries will be accepted at the gate. When you enter the gates at Numidia you will pay for any crew or spectators that you may have with you. Once we get you parked you may come down and register for the race. Right next to the Nitro Lounge we will have 2 Pop-Up Tents that will have the registration for the event. Once you get settled up with the my crew, you will get a goody bag from the sponsors that will have a Tech Card, Schedule, Participant Decals and all other info you may need. Registration will be open till Saturday the 14th after the 1st qualifying shot. Once we start the 2nd qualifying shot, gates are closed and will no longer accept any new entries.
