I can say my thoughts are exactly the way I felt years back after 2 attempts at a .90 Nationals at Numidia and one year with Lee & Brian and one year trying it on my own for Stock & SS big event there. You just can't figure out what to do, you guarantee payouts, give them specialty events, have a cool trophy, checks, etc and the most important part is treat them like they are a customer and wanted at your race. I was saying after seeing the numbers at the D1 race and knowing you were the week after, I said Ken's going to knock this out of the park this year. Just keep pushing and trying to make it better and better each year is all you can do and I know .90 cars are not the show but, I'm sure if you ever wanted to team up, just let me know.

Rob...you can lead a horse to water...BUT!!!

Ken and his crew really put on an enjoying event.I would hope that some how there would be more then 1 race a year.Happy for Joe and DJ both good friends.Besides the great food at Numidia the starting line was killer.....Thanks Again for a great weekend.

It was a great race and a great time. Outstanding job by Ken, the staff, and all the sponsors.

My only complaint is that for two days now, I've not been able to get Sinatra and Elvis tunes out of my head!

Can't wait until next year's Class Nationals.

Sounds like this was an awesome event. This has been a big year for class racing outside of the NHRA. 3 huge events put on by private promoters and all for big money. SGMP. The Tyler Bohannon race and now the Class Racer National. All got excellent reviews from those that attended. I was able to go to the big one at SGMP. That was within a reasonable travel distance for me. It was very well run and a great time. All of these races seemed to be successful and we all have to hope that there might be more to come next year. I know I will do my best to support these type of events when possible.

Thanks to Ken and his staff for putting on this event.

This was my second year at this event and is on my schedule next year even if I miss a Divisional race. When I entered Friday to prep everyone was welcoming, I thought I died and went to the land of Oz....

Any questions I had, Answered! Any idea's for next, Welcomed! This was a class act from the go......

I want to thank Class Racer Forum (Ken Miele), MicroStrategy Tech Solutions, ATI, Gold RUSH Trailers, Weldon, IRC, Oakes Landscaping, Biondo, Dan Fletcher Trailer Sales, Motorsports Innovations and DRC Racing for supporting sportsman racing.

In addition the staff who worked were the best. Dan, Tim, Deanna and Taylor Fletcher, Kaylin Guenther, Russ Wernes, Bill Holmes, Dave Ley and the Numidia staff I say thank you for a great show.

I was a disappointed in the turn out because all I read is there is no races for sportsman, we get treated like poorly, there is no money to win, we only get 1 run, blah blah blah you missed a great race.

Finally, As some of you know a great sportsman racer and my friend Larry Guest recently passed. Larry has been around racing a long time and I leave you with our favorite quote: "The Future is now!"

Good morning Ken and to all,
Joe I think you certainly expressed most of my sentiments. I want to say THANK YOU to Kenny and Dave and everyone who rolled up there sleeves and made that event happen. THANK YOU to all the sponsors that pitched in and gave it there all as well.
I had a Great time and the racing, the facility and everything else that goes into an event this size was terrific. The event moved at a good pace and everyone had enough time to be prepared for the following round.
I will be sure to be participating at any of your future events. Thank goodness the weather cooperated and I hope everyone returned home safely.

Respectfully,
Henry Kunz 1534 H/SA
