I'm Marcus Allen and my car is the SS/D 69 camaro out of Colorado. I have spoken to racers in the past and nhra about doing something like this. My plan was to do it after the western swing at Kearney, Ne. I choose this location due to speaking with Hyatt Racing about stopping there on their way to Brainerd, Mn. My brother Frank and I found about 50 different S/SS racers just in the surrounding states that could attend. At the time the track manager wasn't willing to risk that type of race but has since changed his mind set when we started to bring 20 cars from CO to the track to hold a stick race.

Every so often I think about doing something like this but don't see it working, because of a lack of racer interest. You have a list and my two cents is pick a divisional near those who respond back to a message sent to those racers. Have the race after the first time shot Sat with NHRA approval. If they (NHRA) don't think that's fair because of these racers having a competition before everyone else, then try Earlville, IA (if they have another national open in 2016) with the midwest class racers. The folks at midwest class racers were interested in it when Frank brought it to them and at a national open their is plenty of time. My original spot was Topeka, Ks because it was centrally located in the US. But reality is find the most dense populated reference a response to s letter and since your doing the work find a track between them and you. Don't give up and good luck.

P.S. payout is only an incentive to a few of the stick racers. Those who truly love stick cars will make the trip if told this is a one time deal. I traveled to Indy 1100 miles one way for a stick race put on by umtr one year.
