Div. 7 racers, R.M.R. has a BIG RACE 4 US!

Additionally per my chat with Ron Craft, If you are not an IHRA member, you can purchase for $25 bucks a "one race" membership/competiton number/ chassis certification ( as long as your NHRA status is current). If it is not current, then an IHRA membership etc., will be required at IHRA rates (which are still half of what NHRA now charges).

"See my adjustment to the original post...due to clarification by Ron Craft". Again this race WILL NOT QUALIFY FOR THE WORLD FINALS "TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS" race after all, due to it being a combo race, and not a regular Stock Eliminator and regular Super Stock Eliminator race....that will be changed next year, with the success of this race helping that quest out!

My first post on this forum. This is worth trying to get the car count up in class racing in the new division 6 of IHRA. I will be there for sure , and possibly 2 other super stocks and 3 stockers from Wyoming and Colorado. The track is great, Ron and the personel are super to work with and really appreciate the sportsman racer. It's in June and there is lots to do in the Salt Lake Valley.See you there! This is one super stock that's in for sure!

Glad to hear that L. Rush, because with you and those you spoke of hopefully being there, that will make this a venue where all of the fans that showed up for their Nitro Jam race last year, really like seeing us there (over and beyond where we all will be coming from). I think there's some Az. racers (and possibly at least one Ca. racer), who might chime in on this with me too, but I'll have to chat with them to see? Ron is very excited about this happening, and I'm thankful to have the chance to support it (along with you, Paul Plummer), and all others who'll be there. Having raced at R.M.R. in the late '90's, I don't ever recall seeing as many fans in the stands, as there was at their first Nitro Jam race! THE STANDS WERE PACKED (from what the Drag Review Magazine pictures showed), and my biggest regret was I wasn't there to take it in with the "5" racers (Paul Plummer being one of them), who were there. GOD willing, I will definitely be there this year, and I'm counting the days!!!

Great news from Wyoming & Colorado, I am originally from Great Falls, MT - Anybody else in Idaho or MT reading about this and care to find out more and how to participate?

Terry Hombre - are you doing the Spokane Division Race? If not, come and visit us, I still feel a little guilty about missing second gear and then driving around you when you thought I broke!!!! Come and trailer me!! If not, good luck at the division race in Spokane.

Ok, so let's start a running list of confirmed participant's so far. If we get enough names on this list, some of the people on the fence may just step down and commit.

Each time someone new commits, add the new names to this list, and repost. By the end of this thread we will have a final count of the "committed" who probably should be committed.

Here goes:

1) Gary Hampton
2) L Rush
3) Paul (Jody) Plummer
4)
5)
6)
7)
8)
9)

Here is the extent of my personal ability to attract racers to the Salt Lake Event.

There are three stock eliminator racers in my community. I personally only know one of the other two. I do know that both of these guys are died in wool NHRA competitors. This isn't meant to be negative. They and their friends have raced together at the NHRA events for years. As I stated in a post several months ago, we are not only fighting multiple division races scheduled the same week-end but also battling the family reunion nature of the NHRA santioned races.

Needless to say I am the only local racer willing to fore-go my local division race and travel to Salt Lake.

I do have a good friend who is an old school super-stock racer who is working hard to get his car together and is expressing sincere interest in going to the Salt Lake event. I would say we have a 50/50 shot of getting him. Travel costs will definitely be an issue for him.

So all of that having been said, I do have a few other outside-the-box ideas that I think would best be discussed sans email or phone vs. this forum. Ideas that we could work out with Skooter at IHRA and Ron at RMR. Email me at m900rider@gmail.com or call me at 208-691-6394 to discuss.

Thanks,
