Ohio Valley Class Racers association

Greg Hill · 01-26-2009, 08:39 AM

Is there any interest in starting a racers association for stock and super stock in KY, TN, IN, ILL, MO and OH? Right now Bowling Green has 3 combo races scheduled and Ohio Valley has 8. I f we could find a couple of more racetracks to host 3 each we could use 3 of Ohio Valley's and the 3 at Bowling Green and have a 12 race series. I am doing this not to get a new job but to gauge interest from racers. If you are interested e-mail me at gph.hill@insightbb.com or let me know on the class racer site.

Greg,
I'm sure there is plenty of interest. I know many are talking about "staying close to home." The big problem here in TN is a lack of tracks. Music City is practically impossible to get the big trucks in to. We'd have gone to the race they had there last year, but it's so dangerous to take the truck on that road. Not sure what other options are possible. I'm sending you a PM, give me a call, I'll do everything I can to help.

Alan, I was thinking more like maybe racetracks in S Ohio or S Indiana, or even in S MO or ILL. That way we could attract racers from a larger area. I'm basically thinking Nashville, Louisville, Indy, Cincinatti, Dayton, Columbus, and St. Louis and the surrounding areas.

Greg,
That's fine. I think you are correct.

Greg,
Count me in. I would really like to see more Sunday race day races. That way I can work OT Saturday and still afford to race. Maybe Edgewater?

Greg,

I don't have my class car or my bracket car ready yet. I'd be interested in doing what I could. I believe, if, there are going to be races, racers are going have to band together. I agree with Terry on the Sunday races. I too, work alot of Saturdays. I'm roughly two hours from Ohio Valley, two hours from Edgewater, two hours from Muncie, pretty much two or more hours from everywhere.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Bowling Green allows IHRA cars to race just like Ohio Valley?

Greg, you know you will have our support if at all possible that should result in 10 or so cars
