Payouts are a big topic right now. Want a more than fair payout? If you live anywhere near the Carolinas, here's your chance to prove it.

Ultimate Doorslammer Shootout
Pageland Dragway, Pageland, SC
July 20-21, 2007

The event on Saturday, July 21 is a limited, pre-entered field. There will be four segments of 32 cars: (128-car field total, 7 rounds, no buybacks)
1) 32 Stock/Super Stock cars
2) 32 Footbrake cars
3-4) total of 64 Box doorslammers, separated into Quick & Slow 32's.

3rd round loser: $100
4th round loser: $300
S/SS r/u: $1,000
S/SS winner runs Footbrake winner in the semis ($2,000)
Winner of that round runs the winner of the two Box segments for $7,000 and an IHRA Iron Man trophy to win and $3,000 R/U. If the winner is a S/SS or FB car, there will be a $500 bonus!
Entry is $200. Win three rounds and pay for your whole weekend! Even if you only win two rounds, you paid for your gas.

There will also be a free 'Dash for Cash' for $200/win on the last qualifying run.

Race is 1/8th mile. Like most Combo races, no heads-up runs.

Friday's event is just an all-run bracket race, keeping box/no-box separate as much as possible.

A little extra info: Pageland is located kind of between Charlotte and Darlington. I've been bracket racing there this year. 2 wins and a semi with my bracket car and a r/u with the Stocker. Myron Piatek also has a runner-up there and can attest to the track.

Track website: www.jpdragway.com

If you want to get MapQuest directions to the track use:
2380 Peach Orchard Rd
Jefferson, SC 29718

(The track is actually another mile up the road, but MapQuest doesn't recognize the track's physical address for some reason.)

Zero, to date, which is why I was looking for suggestions. Everyone I talked to thought it looks like a great race, but all I've had is verbal commitments. The original pre-entry deadline was June 1, but I had extended it to June 15, as I didn't get the flyers out as quickly as I wanted, except on the internet. I'll do one more push at Kinston this weekend...

Flyer notes 80% payout.

One racer called me last night and said he was planning on going, but didn't realize that it was a pre-entry race. Who else falls into that category?
