East Coast Stock / Super Stock Races

[Dave Siltman]

The United Stock/SuperStock series had a schedule change and will not coincide with these races.

As the last post mentioned, Jimmy, Chad, Lance & His Group and myself all agreed we might have been chewing more then we should for that weekend, so the United Stock / SS Series has moved to another weekend to free up a little space, either way this is still going to be an action-packed weekend of racing to fill the void in between the Lucas Oil Race at Cecil and then Maple Grove on Memorial Day.

We also released a new program at our banquet a few days late from NHRA D1 announcement of the What's App program. It is very simple application you download on your phone and is set up like FB Messenger is (You don't need FB). It is a group chat setting that if properly set up only the Admins can post in it, we know if we open it up to the masses it could turn ugly.

This will give you updates on:
Schedules
Gate times
Run orders
Ladders
Calls to the lanes (for those tracks you can’t hear the PA system)
Schedule updates & changes
Weather updates

You simply download the App and use the link below to join the group.

Last but not least - Nitro fish will add another $500 to the champ program for running nitro fish sticker at all 4 events if you win the championship....we will have stickers at Race # 1.

So, I’ve had some people have questions about the Stock / SS Race at Cecil in May & August, so I’ll answer the ones that have been posed to me so far, have a question put it below:

Rules: All NHRA / IHRA legal cars only, no shoe polish cars (meaning it must fit into a class, can’t throw shoe polish on your tow vehicle to race), cannot dial above your index. The byes are chosen by best R/T in Qualifying, Random Pairs for R1, Laddered come R2, No Heads Up, No Weight / Fuel Check, Combo Class of Stock / SS

Payouts: Payouts are based on 32 cars (please tell me where at 32 cars you can run for $2,500 in Stk/SS) and thanks to the great sponsors who stepped up to sponsor this series this is the format they decided on, I get $2,500 to win / $500 RUP might be a steep decline in winner to r/up payouts but I’m sure you can work something out if you make it to the finals. I can tell you it’s way easier to get a sponsor on board for 4 races rather than 10 events…the dollar is stretched out a little further at 10 races.

Entry: YES, entry fee is $100 to race per day, and you make it to 3rd round you get that back!! Spectators & Crew are $15 per day.

Championship fund: Really, no buy in? Yes, once again thanks to great sponsors, no membership is required (for Stk/SS) to run for the cash!

Rotation: Plan is to put the Combo Class in Between Top Dragster & Top Sportsman to allow those running double duty in TD / TS to get a break, there will be plenty of time to arrive, set-up and make your runs and have some downtime, the plan is 2 qualifiers on Sat & 1 Sun followed by eliminations both days.

*Rotations are not easy to do, and I know I'll have a Super Street guy who has a Junior or also has a Super Comp car, all can say it work together...ask for help if possible.

Let’s have fun and come 2025 hopefully this is a regular deal!

The UNSS schedule has been updated.

One of the biggest requests I receive over the years is if we can have an RFC presence at our events. Many racers enjoy the calming feeling of prayer before a run down the track or to ease the nerves before a final round. We’re proud to add D1 Chaplain Kevin Cooke to our team for 2024. Kevin will be floating through the staging lanes providing prayer and guidance for all our racers. Kevin will also be doing Sunday Morning church service beginning at 7:30 am in the grandstands for all racers to attend! The only race Kevin will not be at will be the August Pig Roast (the best race right??…but Kevin is looking for coverage for that race. Thanks Kevin & RFC for all the support!
