Take an E-Town date in June.

Or .. for consideration, make Lebanon Valley divisional a double, its the weekend before the 4th, and the next weekend is Epping National...lots of people take the week of the 4th for vacation anyways..... and another issue...with the loss of the Englishtown national, Stock and SS racers lose the opportunity to run class eliminations.... could be worse, if things don't change, the Div 1 Comp Elim guys have the Keystones and thats it without traveling....

Not for nothing, why would we need another Open in D1? We already have 5 and the two mainly contested ones (Atco & Maple Grove) get good counts for Stock / SS but, the rest of the classes are subpar. The opens just don't have that "luster" they used to have.

Maybe so S/SS can run them flat out without getting horsepower.Also run Class at National open.

napierville 10k usd to win... cauyga 6k each day....that's enough S/SS "luster" for most ...

Yea and Napierville only had 37 cars in combo for 10K,last year. ya all better support it or it will go away, Now if ya's look at the map it is a 6 hr drive from Atco, have a passport and leave your guns at home, 15 mins inside Canadian border. Just wonder what would happen if M/G was ever sold, everyone would have to drive then to a race,just saying.
