Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
This race is on the Mason Dixon schedule for Oct 31-Nov1. Does anyone know information on who will be in charge of running the race? I definitely plan to go both days-great race to end the season.

Though thinking about it. Would be happy to help. Thought of a couple fun things Have a Heads Up S/SS Challenge. Where two racers competitively close would run Heads Up. For example a A/SA against a SS/IA car. or Two racers Run on their Dial In. Side Bet or Bragging Rights What do your think? D |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
The race was always successful as it was run in the past. Test and Tune Friday. Saturday Race and Sunday Race.

Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
I wonder with the ECSSSA race at Atco this year on 11/1, and the report of non legal class cars at the race last year, if it will be as successful as in years past when Mike and his mom ran it. Being an hour from Atco and supporting Dave Leys races all year, I will be going to Atco as long as they run it.

Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
Thinking about going to Atco myself. The track claims there going to run the race yet let there weekly racers claim classes that they could never fit In and never entered a ihra or NHRA race. Then again maybe I’ll claim the special addition Shelby made foxbody body and run pure stock.

As far as N/SS cars go, integrating them as the Buckeye and Great Lakes groups do is fine, but they should adhere to NMCA rules like enforced by those groups. If you let the local N/SS group in, you open up a whole can of worms as their only requirements are age of vehicle, and no snorkel scoops. |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
My question was in regards to who will be running the race. Mike Carr no longer runs it due to health reasons.
|
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
I told Mike Carr I will be there to cover for him if he and Wendy can't make it. As for what cars will and will not be allowed to race; Mike always allowed Nostalgia Super Stock and the Pure Stock cars to race and I can accept that. But there was one car that I can recall from last year that was nothing more than a bracket car. If I am running things that car will not race with us. I know we want as many cars as possible, but we should hold true to what class racing is, otherwise we might just as well have a bracket race. I will admit that I am not schooled on all the classes that NHRA has now, nor all the classes that IHRA had before they closed up shop on class racing but there are enough knowledgeable racers to help me out on that. I will say this, if you have never raced an NHRA or IHRA race with your car, or you don't even know which class your car fits in or what the index for your class is, then it is not a Stock or Super Stock car. If you think you should be able to enter this race you better bring a rule book that defines what class your car is and what index it runs. And just to let you know, if you want to bitch about it, get it done on here because I am not going to this race to listen to people complain.

Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
Have not received a call back yet. I'm still at VMP waiting to run the finals of the PDRA race. I should be home by Tuesday, will try again to contact Elmer

Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
I'm still sitting in the rain at VMP waiting to finish the final round of Pro Boost at the PDRA World Finals
Since Elmer doesn't have the courtesy to return my call from LAST WEEK I have decided that I am not going to spend my own money to travel out of state on my birthday to run race for him. Sorry guys, but you are on your own. |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
I see that there is a sign-up sheet on the MD website for Saturday and Sunday. Maybe this is to get an estimated car count.

RAIN in Germantown Md
FYI
Sunday November 1st, 9:30 am Raining here in Germantown MD. Rain is heading west. |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
The weather was always a crapshoot at Mason-Dixon. One year it was T-shirts and shorts the next it was thermals and winter coats - always made it interesting!
Hope you get the race in! |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
I was there twenty-five years in a row. I halve seen snow flurries. I have seen eighty degrees. And just about everything in between. Only two rainouts, twenty years apart. We were very fortunate over the years. I wish you all the best today
|
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
Looks like the rain did not get to Mason Dixon.
Thinking they ran. Too late to get there before first round. Ok...having a quiet Sunday. Cars need some attention anyway! D |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
Was nice there yesterday for awhile. A little brisk, not bad. Track looked like it was in good shape. S/SS guys pretty much had the place to themselves.
After this year, it was nice to just get out and catch up some. |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
Any results from today?

I won Stock/SS Saturday running my F/PS Impala SS Got a lucky bye in Finals as the other car broke. Think it was an AMX. So Pure Stockers ruled the day |
Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
Anyone else think there may have been intermittent technical cliches in the timing or tree? We had a redlight and timeslip that made no sense.Replay on my cell phone video didn't really clarify it.

Re: Mason Dixon Stock/Super stock race
Sorry I didn't get on here yesterday. We started out with sunshine and temp. about 40 degrees and by the end of the day it did get cloudy with temps in the high 40's. First time run had 34 entries starting at 11:30 am. Everybody was fast, big wheel stands, fun to watch. About 12:30 we ran the second time run. In the end Dan Fahey in his 96 Chevy Caprice E/PS got a single in the final as Aris Asdourian SS/B AMX had broken in the semis. It was Vic Guilmino and Kevin Anderson as the semi racers. Very good racing, we would have loved to have more entries, a less than great weather forecast Sunday and the ECSSA race at Atco probably affected of us I'm sure. The racers paid a $20.00 Tech card fee and $100.00 entry.....a full %100 of their entry fee went to the racers. We still love having this race every year. A good show as always. We did try to race Sunday, rain to the south and east of us backed in on us about 10 am and soaked the place and we were forced cancel. A big thanks to Troy Huntzberry for running the race. We did miss Mike Carr and his mom Wendy for all they've done over the years with this event. A big thanks to all that participated!!
