2008 Roxboro combo schedule

Tracy Robbins · 12-25-2007, 12:23 AM

Herb, If you will re-read my original post you will see the June race is scheduled for the 21st so it doesn't conflict w/ the Presidents cup. There aren't that many available weekends during the March, April, May time frame and I don't think the division 1 race will have a big affect on the turnout at Roxboro. I looked back at qualifying for last years div. 1 race at MIR and out of the 13 stockers Michael Beard was the only one that has raced at Roxboro and out of 9 super stockers Sterling Simmons was the only racer active at Roxboro. This is the only conflict w/ div. 1 or 2 that I'm aware of and to tell you the truth that's why I asked Allen to have a best 5 out of 8 points series so it won't hurt if you miss a race or two. I may end up going to MIR myself but there are at least 15 to 20 racers locally that won't go and would probably like somewhere to run before Rockingham.

Thats what I'm talking about. Get it worked out guys.

Tracy keep in mind last year MIR was something like 110% chance of rain. I did'nt go.

I remember Chip, there are still quite a few racers that go to every Roxboro race that don't attend any division races much less the one's in division 1. Even when they finished the race not that many cars from this area attended. If we only have one conflict we will be doing pretty good.

Thanks for getting the schedule out. I for one am planning on attending the MIR Pro-Am (weather permitting... I only went to the make-up date last year). I like the best 5 of 8 for Roxboro series points. I might be able to do that this year.

Hopefully everyone can make at least five races throughout the year. Anything can happen whether it be sickness, race conflicts, engine problems, what ever...this allows you to still have a shot at winning the points.
