Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Just throwing this out there to see what everyone's thoughts are for the 2013 season since I was approached by a few racers over the past few weeks about doing a series here on the Northeast. The Series would piggy-back the Mid Atlantic Super Gas & Comp Series and would feature either 8 or 10 events (Double weekends) of 10.90 racing. We would try to put these events before a Divisional event or National Event at either the same track or a track close by so you can just leave your stuff there or just have a short travel to the track for the following weekend.
2 weekends at Atco 1 weekend at Maple Grove 1 weekend at Cecil County Possibly 1 weekend at Numidia We would count 6 out of 10 events towards a year end points payout and the chance for the 10.90 guys to race something other then Divisional races. Let me know what you think - I'm open for suggestions Like I said I'm just getting a feel for it right now and I'm not saying it's a go but, just wanted to get a feel as to what some of the 10.90 racers thought.

Not sure as of yet, just getting a feel to see if there is any interest to put a series together. I figure out rules and all that fun stuff if we decide to go forward with the series.

Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Like the idea Rob. If I can assist in any way, let me know.

It's a great idea Rob. I would support a series like this.

Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
So far looks like we have a fair amount of good interest in the series. I figured where we are located the series will not effect Ted's Series or Kenny's Series up in Canada / Eastern New York and take away from their car counts. I would never start a series that would throw a monkey wrench into other series and take away from their car counts. This also gives 10.90 racers something else to do when not running divisionals and the 1 or 2 National Events a year they are at.
What I'm looking at is a TRUE .500 pro tree, No Min Weight, All cars must have roofs and working doors. Same entry fee's as MASGA & MASCA per race ($70.00) plus gate fees and $70.00 for membership to run for the year end points program. Like I said all in the works as of right now and if I have someone who would like to come on board and help out that would be even better. I've pretty much turned the driving duties over to my Dad for all the MASGA Races so I can focus on the Super Comp Series / 90 Nationals and make them successful. |

Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Count me in Bob. I'm hoping to be back in action in Super Street for the Dutch Classic and be full time in 2013. I've alway's thought it would be a great idea to include Super Street. I was hooked after the MASGA race I ran in 2010, before my forced hiatus. hope the plans work out. I spent a good amount of time at Cacil County talking it up!

Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Dave,
It will be good to see you back out there. How's the car coming along after the crash...all fixed or did you have to buy a new one? I must say after the responses on Class Racer, E-Mails & Facebook that MASSA (The Mid Atlantic Super Street Association) will be alive and kicking for the 2013 season. For all those guys and gals who have attended a MASGA Race here and got hooked but, just couldn't run 9.90 now is your chance to finally shine. I mean where can you go to run 2 Super Street Races in 1 weekend and have a Awesome BBQ on Saturday Night and not have your pockets empty when you go home. Mr. Michael Beard is currently working on the logo and should have it in a few weeks or so. As far as a schedule goes...well that will come in time as I have to wait for the National & Divisional schedules to be set and then try to get with the track owners to see what they have available. So look for some info in the next few months and I will hopefully be at E-Town on Sunday to talk it up with some of the S/St Racers. Rob |
Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Thanx for the concern Rob! Unfortunately the Firebird was to far gone, the chassis wasn't all that bad, that would have been fixable. The costly part was that it would have had to been completely re-bodied including tin work. So the the new ride will be a '69 Camaro all steel bodied (except) hood with a 4 link and a big block. A little heavier than what I'm used to, but it should get the job done. I am looking forward to getting back out there and will be awaiting further news on the MASSA schedule. See you at the races!

wow sounds great , count me in ...
if it be could scheduled along with some masga races that would be great.. jim |
Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Jim
All the events will be held with the MASGA Guys. I run the Super Comp Series and run all our events w/ the MASGA Crew except for 1 this year. Next year is a different story as everything will be together to make 1 BIG .90 Super Series. Rob |
Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!

great ..if you need any help just ask, I can get the ok with numidia if you need. jim |
Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Jim,
Thanks for the help. I should be ok w/ Numidia as Bob & I are pretty close. We worked together for the .90 Nationals and I will be calling Bob here shortly to get the 2013 date all set-up for that event. The reason I was on the fence about Numida was seeing if everyone will tow up there. The track is great, the people are 1st class, just hoping I don't have an event and then 5 S/ST cars show up...lol. The plan is to put the race either week before or the week after the 90 Nationals so people can leave there rigs up at the track. Bob has already told me he will do the same with the Super Comp guys as he does with the Super Gas guys and guarantee the $1,000.00 payout on both days, maybe I can twist his arm to include the Super Streeters in there also. Deb, What happened with Super Comp? Was Ken tired of you beating up on him....lol. It's the downfall of having ADD. I always have to be doing something or I go crazy. You should see me at my desk at work, I'm rarely ever in my seat....haha. Rob |
Re: Super Street Series for 2013 in the Northeast!
Rob,
We are planning to put the sc car back together over the winter. We picked up a really nice S/ST car and I made some passes in it on Tues @ Atco. Never drove a door car, and it really handled nice. Hopefully you can get this going and people will support it. And, thank goodness after all these years driving in SC, we only had to run each other 3 times. and I am 0 for 3...lol Debbie Moses |
