I have to congratulate Brian, Lee and family, for bring fun back to class racing. They got a pretty good turnout. Besides the weather, everything went smooth and people looked like they were enjoying themselves.

I second that. The Chili wasn't bad either. :)

A very cool track and event. I think I'll drag my car out next year if this event happens again and get drilled by the D1 guys :). Then eat, drink beer (work on my tune up as Al Carp says), and watch the rest of the weekend.

Re: LIVE from Numidia Combo in the Hills $10K!
 

We also had a great time at this race. Thanks to Lee, Brian, Lisa & Kati for all their hard work making this come together. We thought the turnout was great and the race ran smoothly. Also thanks to the DiMino family, we're very lucky to have Numidia as our home track, it is truely a fantastic facility and always a fun place to race.

Congratulations to Brian and Ray!!!!

I was just talking about this persons post this weekend............ hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Re: LIVE from Numidia Combo in the Hills $10K!
 

A great job brian and katie and lee and lisa. You all worked hard to make this a great race!!!

Re: LIVE from Numidia Combo in the Hills $10K!
 

Worth noting that the split at 5 cars was $310. Just goes to show that the more people support combo races, the better it pays. I'll make three laps for $310 every day of the week if you let me! :p While the main event was huge, just think if you had 100 cars get in the $50 gamblers.... that's a $5,000 purse!


Here's a couple of pics I got with the real camera before the batteries went kaput...

A Few thoughts from Myself about the "Combo in The Hills" First of all it was really cool to see a lot of the "East Coast Hitters "running their cars . I got to meet a lot of Good racers and put a face to their name it was awesome.

Brian and Kati Van Poppel , Lee and Lisa Zane put on one heck of a fun Show for Stock and Super Stock.They paid out the Full Purse even though the car count was not as many as needed a huge "Way To GO" here over $10,000.00 to win and over $4,000.00 runner up was a huge success

They had for Stock and Super Stock in their Own Pits . The pits were great plenty of room and no one to tell you how to park your rig ,hey the racers don't need someone to tell them how to park their rigs .lol

They had a track that had teeth big time I personally only saw two cars spin the whole time and one was that torque monster hemi SS er

The way they ran the eliminations was awesome for Stock and Super Stock.

The track had a separate especially only pits for Stock and Super Stock and the gate was open until 11 o'clock at night , no waiting to get to the pits .
Free test and Tune on Friday heck some cars got as many as 3 to 6 runs cool.

a few Words about the race track Numidia Dragway. the owner s The DiMino Family have to rank up at the top of the "most aware of racers needs "that I have ever seen since Dave Danish at Tucson. he let us in at 11:30 Thursday night and Told Brian and Lee if you need anything let me know. He even was congratulating the final 5 racers in the staging lanes Holy Cow . I watched him also and he was always driving around to make sure Stock and Super Stock Racers were well taken care of . he was genuine concerned about the racer .His track is immaculate the grass in the pits was groomed , the starting line was great , hey he even prepped the whole track from the start to finish with VHT the good smelly stuff , was great and I just think not diluted cause not many spun .
The concession food was great and it was just like a official restaurant the employees were very friendly , I know I purchased three slushes for TJ My grandson and ate a lot of food cause it was very fresh and tasted great .

the playground was great ok so I was taking care of TJ a lot My choice he is one sharp grandson .

over all I only wish that the other decisions makers for running events and tracks would know how a race can be ran with fun for all,with a great purse very little oil downs and a racer friendly track. The wake up call at 7AM on Sunday was super cool from The PA
more pictures to come later , I just may have to go to Fontana to let the button go at sea level with My Old Pontiac . lol

The race was awsome and Numidia was a beautiful track!
Lisa and I both enjoyed ourselves. Thanks to Brian and Lee for all the effort they put into this. I met both of them for the first time this weekend and the only thing I regret about the weekend is that I didn't get more time to talk to them. Nice people! Brian- Thanks again for the helmet, hopefully I will be able to return the favor one day. Looking forward to attending the next one!

Speaking of "the next one"???? When is the next "Combo in the Hills"?? Fall?, next year? Maybe I'll actually have the car ready this time.

Congratulations everyone on the planning, execution and participation in and of this race. I had a good time watching, even though I'm a lousy spectator!

Next time I'm bringing rain gear no matter what the weather forcast says!

Re: LIVE from Numidia Combo in the Hills $10K!
 

I know I'm not here to speak for Brian and Lee but, all goes well with my race in August for the .90 Cars at Numidia (I know you guys hate the throttle stops but, we are all racers and are dealing with the same enhancements and increases) then you may see a big announcement coming in the future reguarding the next installment of the "Combo in the Hills x 2". Lee, Brian and Myself have already started putting the bug in each others ears reguarding the next installment.

Re: LIVE from Numidia Combo in the Hills $10K!
 

Brobaey, how would one get copies of the picture you took? I see being able to purchase a coffee cup/mug but just some pictures.

Please let me/us know.

P.S. I am still talking about the race to anyone who will listen, that was very cool.
