$10,000.00 Stock and Superstock @ No Problem

scott helms · 01-30-2012, 08:52 PM

The Southland Speed and Nitroplate Race will have a purse of $10,000.00 for Stock and $10,000.00 for Superstock (based on 64 cars) each class. $300.00 entry Paid at gate plus gate fee and we'll pay back as far as poss. We will be having Heads-up runs. No records can be set, Have tear down if you like. Scales in working order. All NHRA rules apply IHRA cars can run. We'll put you in NHRA classes for tower. Just to keep simple... I would like to allow Top Dragster and Top Sportsman to also have a race as well as Super Comp, Gas, and Street to run for a set purse but have not heard anything back from anyone. Any questions call me. Put this in your schedule for weekend after Cajuns March 24th sat. 8am More info to come ....

This is very good news for Stock/Super Stock Racers! I feel our furture is in more of these type of races. I hope the turn out is as desired. If I could offer a suggestion, if next year there is a desire to continue this race, please consider later in the spring. Reason is, Up here in the winter belt although there are some that willtake thier stuff out in the salt and slop most of us will not. A race such as this deserves to have you Good Old Southern Boys to git whup on on by us Damm Yankees!

Thanks for making this the weekend after the Sportsnationals! Gives us a good reason to stay over and eat that good cajun food for another week!!

Very cool idea, I do second what Dirk said in that a lot of us northerners dont want
to drag our stuff through the slop and salt its just brutal on equipment. This looks to
be a great race.

As always thank you for your comments, but I figured if some were not going to get into gators and planned to come this way they could change plans and stay here for two weeks like Larry amd Patsy. Also this race is not a combo but seperate classes. Thanks Post more later.....

Greg Hill · 02-01-2012, 08:56 AM

I'll be there Scott. Like Larry it's a good excuse to stay another week.

If the 64 car count is not met, any idea how the pay out will be structured back?

Thanks Mike, I thought that was the "Barrowed Money" car. We'd love for him and Crew for both races.

I have no interest in cajun race. The 10k however gets my attention.

You're missing out. The Cajun sportsnationals is a blast, but to each his own
