OK guys, the GLSSA vs. NMCA Stock /Superstock Challenge is coming together! The Ladder with 24 seated cars is set. 16 GLSSA participants and 8 NMCA participants. There are 8 spots available! 4 Stock and 4 Superstock. The spots will be filled by a random chip draw after the Friday morning Time Trial, so anybody still has a chance to get in! The shootout will be run to conclusion on Friday evening. Should be a blast! Don't forget, this is a 100% payback event! ...Brad Z will be posting the seated ladder shortly.

GLSSA and NMCA have put a lot of work into this event. --- To the seated racers that are on the ladder --- If for any reason - you can't make it, or select to not participate in the Challenge race, that's fine, but let us know ASAP so the alternates can be notified. We are on a pretty tight time schedule, so help us out. Thanks, in advance!

[Jim Bailey]
