That's 70+ already, just concentrating on MN (our core group of local racer's).

If this get's STRONG, then we can hopefully pull some of the Dakota/Wisconsin racer's---Ricky Ryan, Steve Koppien, Mike Koppien, Jim Thune, Eddie Wohl, Dave Engles, Dale Radtke, Dirk Olson, Doc Neumeyer...

Alan Messer is there a lot, John Kristianson-(spelling) Rod Neugebauer,Lyn Engels,

Re: S/SS combo @ BIR 2011
 

I realize there are more...just trying to focus on MN for now. We haven't been able to get 33 cars for years, so this is a start. BIR needs to do a mailer of some sort.

I just briefly looked at the 2010 Lucas Oil National qualifying list to get most of the original names I came up with...

Re: S/SS combo @ BIR 2011
 

I guess I'll chime in with my .02 cents. We haven't attended any races in recent years for various reasons. Part of that has to do with moneyand family, part with work. As I work every other Saturday until noon. Thunder Valley and Oahe both start in the afternoon on Saturdays so I can work and still make it in time to run. Finally part of it is because it's only a one day race. I know you can bracket race on Sunday. But, I can bracket race at Oahe and usually be home at a reasonable hour with half the expense.

I can see Travis' point on the purse issue for S/SS as opposed to the bracket cars. Why would he want to pound on a high dollar SS'er for minimal return. Then run in a bracket class with it Sunday when he has a tank of a bracket car that requires little maintainance sitting at home. So I can understand his mindset. We're in the same boat. We're turning dad's old 4 door into a bracket car so we can run more closer to home with wearing out the SS'ers or be able to run a bracket class along with the combo race.

Glen, I wish you luck if anyone can get it turned around it's you. I'd love to see it turn into a two day race and then I know we would try to make a couple when possible.

What about having an incentive program. Like if you win a race or RU you get 50/25 per race attended that season inaddition to the normal winnings obivously it would be payed out at the end of the year. also I thought of Dan Jeska. I would also like a 2 day stock/ss weekend

Re: S/SS combo @ BIR 2011
 

well now we are getting somewhere, what about having a couple 2 day races, get 40-50-60
cars plus kerby"s idea and you have some pretty good pay possible. Check scheduling
so we are not overlapping anything else and we should have a good turn out, i havent looked at the schedule but a week before of after other races that people are traveling to
would make sense as they will be here or close anyway, like around the nationals or
divisional or traveling to the us nationals.. Just a idea

Re: S/SS combo @ BIR 2011
 

Incentive Program, Hmmm!!! I can clearly recall tracks paying tow money to long distance racers (150 miles or more) but that was at the dawn of the internal combustion engine. I used a tow bar at that time and still have the hooks on the front of one of my cars today. I still have that tow bar too. Doug

Re: S/SS combo @ BIR 2011
