If you'll let us Yankees in, my wife and I would love to join you from Ohio. After having towed from Maple Grove to Vegas and Brainerd to Gainesville last year, North Carolina looks pretty good. Sounds like alot of fun without being "enhanced". We aren't crazy about "alphabet cars" but that's okay we run sone IHRA up here. The only suggestion I would like to make is - keep the heads up runs in. After all - heads up is what class racing is supposed to be about. The north/south thing sounds fun and I'll bet you'd get a good turnout. Just one thing - could you get West Virginia to smooth out the turnpike between Charleston and Beckley? Keep us posted - we are working on next year's schedule. Larry & Lisa Buckingham SS/GT

Ron, that is something that we will hopefully be able to do at some point. It will depend on the track we are running at, if they have a two day event we could possibly include our program. However, they couldn't run a race based on stock/super stock alone unless they were having a test'n tune or another event on Sunday. Definitely something that will be considered.
Larry, I hear you on the turn pike deal...traveled it a couple of weekends ago and we'll get to work on that right away! As for yankees coming down, we love for you to come down and spend money, look forward to having you.The heads up deal will be discussed at our January meeting and we'll keep you posted via the message board and hopefully a website down the road.

UPDATE, guys go to your engine builders and ask them to sponsor an event for CCRA, it is very affordable and our website will be up in 3 weeks or so and the exposure on here will be worth 10x what they will pay. I had one NC engine builder tell me he is in. Just some fine details to work out. This Association has no operating expenses so anything broght in gets paid to the racers in a points fund or race purse. Tracy and myself have decided if we have an overage we will keep a certain dollar to roll over to 2010 after this year. All this will be discussed the 2nd Saturday of January at The Cutting Board in Burlington NC.
