Pinks Slug Out

Ron Ortiz · 12-15-2007, 01:30 PM

I spoke to Mr. Rich Christensen of "Pinks" at Bradenton Motorsports Park yesterday. I told him of the internet forum concerning the possibilities of lower classed stockers, FWD cars, and other slugs being on Pinks, or as I put it a Pinks Slug Out. I told him about all the slugs that were up in the New Jersey to Canada area and he thought that it would be great. He said to contact his manager named Nate, as he lives up in that area, and that it would be great as he likes that kind of stuff.

That is all the information that I have, so all you slugs up there in the Joisey and Aye area, get ahold of this guy and see what you can do.

I already had my chance at stardom yesterday. See: "there going to put me in the movies" post

Wish you had posted this earlier. I hung out with Nate for 2 days this past week as he was Piedmont. I will email him with the link to this thread.

Ron;
Went out to dinner Fri. nite and one of us is a Raceway Park staffer who will handle the entries.I dont think you'll want to hear this.All entries mustbe muffled, no
bullet,chambered mufflers only.Thefinals requires thetwo cars to run round robin,run andget back to starting line fornext run without shutting off engine,nocool down period.I dontknow anyone who wold run a S/SS car under those conditions,I know my car would look like Old Faithful.Looks like a good race for an alcohol bracket car to me.

If so it's in the minority for a S/SS.I wouldn't do it to my car.
