This is not fair at all! I'm going to ask Obama to make you give 40% of that to the U/SA shootout.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Ed, Awesome job coordinating this! Ken and Classrcercom helps make this a true value for those wanting to reach their target market of classracers!
This looks easy only because Ed makes it look easy. There is a lot of thought and time that goes into this. I don't have a SS/K, but I can appreciate what everyone is doing here. Keep it up! Jim

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

James I can set you up with what used to be one of the fast 283 autos in the country, not enough time for me to get mine going by then. Tom

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Ed,, have you got a current head count for the Shootout? I'm hoping you will get a 16 car field,, if thats reasonable. Once again, thanks for your efforts in putting this thing together,, I'll be in the stands with camera in hand.

I need a 283 lol!! Congrats Ed wish I was in but will definitely be spectating :)

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

The man that started it all with the original US Class Nationals way back in 2001, Alex Denysenko, along with his wife Beth and son Tony are stepping up to support this year's event. Their business, MoneyMaker Racing will post a non-contingent cash award of $50 to the winner of the SS/K Shootout (or $100 if it's a Ford!), as well as a $50 non-contingent award to the winner of the Stock and Super Stock Main Event Eliminators.

Denysenko, a multi-time IHRA Div. 5 Super Stock champion, with his wealth of knowledge and experience makes all the difference with his customers, going beyond competitive pricing and quick shipping with the R&D knowledge to help customers choose the right parts and setups the first time, and help them understand *why* they're right. Tap into that resource at www.moneymakerracing.net, on Facebook at www.facebook.com/MoneymakerRacing, or give them a call at 219-861-1214.

While Denysenko has enjoyed great success both on the track and at the shop, it is his brainchild of the US Class Nationals in 2001 that will forever be remembered as the pinnacle in the history of Stock and Super Stock racing. It is for that incredible event and all the work that made it happen that we honor Alex Denysenko at the Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals as our Grand Marshal. (*We are contractually obligated to note that this does make him any relation to Bob or Craig.)

I wish I had something new to report. I guess I've exhausted all available support for the K Shootout. I thought I had a few more but they didn't pan out. I actually worked on getting some support for my entry but got no where with that. Dean Oliver and I are trying to get shirts done for the Shootout. I will update that when I hear something firm. Thanks to each and every supporter of the event I truly appreciate it.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

New sponsor update! Cometic Gasket will award a complete engine gasket set to the winner of the K Shootout and a head gasket set to the runner up! Thanks to Cometic for being a supporter. I can't take credit for this one. It was Jim Schaechter working with Kevyn Kistner at Cometic. Thanks guys.

Awesome. He won't be the only Ford there trust me. My quest for a 16 car field is becoming a reality! ☺

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Nitrojoe posted this. I think this will be awesome!

if everything goes right I'm wanting to run the SS/K shootout out of the "hot car" lane (in front of the bleachers) and line them up on a angle up front so people sitting in bleachers can do a photo op of all the cars sitting there for this classical shootout.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Shirt design is done. Lee Norton did a great job with this. Everyone so far really likes the shirt. I've had a lot of people asking can I buy one. Yes you can. I'm placing the order tomorrow, but we are ordering extras so the can be purchased for 12.00 each. If your going to be at the race just find me there. Thanks to Dean Oliver for helping out tremendously with this.

Put me down for 3 2 large, 1 x large. I will send cash with Bich. Tom

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

I would like to get one too. X/L for me. I will send you the cash. You should be receiving your sponsorship check from me this week.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Ed,

1 2x and 1 xl.

Dad will be at the race and I'll have him stop by and pay. PM or text me if you need anything else

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Ed,, do you plan on having the T-shirts available at the event? I'm hoping you do. Once again, you've done a great job of putting this together,, I'm deffinately looking forward to this race within a race. Don't forget some "big boy" sizes. See ya there.
Danny Durham

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Yes I will be handing the shirts out there. I'm hoping most of them will be picked up there. I ordered 20 xxl shirts so should be some left.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

My brand new engine suffered a failure on the dyno Saturday. I had the cylinder heads updated and part of the deck on #4 just came apart. Luckily the bottom end was not damaged. The guys at Trumble Racing Engines gave it a great try sunday and today trying to weld it up but it didn't happen. So right now the class nationals don't look good. I guess some things aren't meant to be.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Noooooooo! Don't throw in the towel yet. Driving down with Tony Fillipone to this race, really looking forward to this Shootout! I think you should take a motor from someone who decided they WEREN'T going to the Class Nationals, obviously they don't need it! lol

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

C'mon, Ed you've got to bring your car,, somebody please bring a set of heads for him.
A lot of work has gone into this shootout, not to mention the family setback suffered by Ed. He deserves to be in his own race within a race. Any help out there? I hope so.
Danny Durham

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

I'm hearing Ed got a new bullet together,,, that's great news. I'm really looking forward to the shootout and I plan to put my camcorder to use. I'm hoping Rob will be there shooting also.
Danny Durham

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

As of right now, I will be there. Will see how Tony's car does testing this Saturday.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

I hope all goes well this weekend for you guys. We don't need anyone dropping out of the shootout this close to the main event.
Danny Durham

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
 

Ed…I've sent you a PM.

Re: SS/K Stick Shift Shootout Class Nationals May 2014
