My favorite event of the season! Hope to be there with Bobby Fazio and Bob Sr..Hope all the racers from New Jersey make it back after last years tragedy.I also hope that those whose year ends with the Dutch Classic will want to end the year racing ,not dodging raindrops!

Do you normally have a good turnout for the N/SS cars? Thinking about making the trip.

Mike Carr · 10-15-2013, 03:03 PM

This is our first year allowing N/SS in our series. We haven't had very many at all at the local (western PA/eastern OH) races this year. Four on Memorial day weekend, one June 15, one Sept 7, and two Sept 28 (none Sept 29). We had a two-day two-race weekend at Pittsburgh Sept 28-29. N/SS chose to have their own, stand-alone class for just them, because, in their words, "$100 is too much to pay to race". To most of us (S/SS), that was totally absurd, but, whatever...I'll pay 100 to run for two grand every day of the week (and would have paid $2K at Pittsburgh with the fifty combined cars between the two eliminators. I don't expect a huge turnout of N/SS at Hagerstown, honestly.

Also, if any racer, company or sponsor would like to get involved with the November races, let me know. Support could be in any fashion. Money into the race purse(s), award for long distance tow, best winning and/or losing first round package, prize for first racer to win with a dead-on with a zero, gift certificates for winners and/or RU's, whatever you would like to do. Any support is greatly appreciated.

This is one of the "BEST" & "FUN" races we go too. The weather has been very good and we all have a fun time. Right Lew?? Please come and have some fun................

Lew Silverman · 10-17-2013, 08:36 AM

Oh Yes!!

This is probably my favorite race of the year! I get a chance to visit with a lot of folks who I only see once or twice a year. Doesn't really matter what the temperature is (and it can get really cold!) I can't imagine NOT having a good time at this event.

This one answers the question "What if they held a race and a party broke out!"

I'll be there!

Mike Carr · 10-18-2013, 12:53 PM

Yes, always a fun way to end the CLass Racing season, for sure.

Here are a few Mr Jack Matyas "LIve From" reports from Hagerstown, 2009 and 2011

Also, I received an e-mail from Larry Mohar. The annual Racer Dinner at the Crazy Horse Steakhouse and Saloon is a go! 7 pm (no deposit was required), so come on out for, as Mr Matyas put it once, "a great steak and even better bench racing".
