How/why a Wally at a non nhra event?

Al I didn't realize you were a CT. guy. A close friend of mine Papa Frank Tantilo told me. Great that you are letting us know about this race. It's races like this and the Memorial one for Dave Lebrun and Alan Peters that will help with keeping our sport going. Thanks for those that are involved. Barry

Kevin,
Tracks have the option to buy a certain amount of Wally’s per year for “ND Days” or King of the Tracks. So you can gove away Wally’s at any event of the track will get them for you at the cost. I know Atco got a couple a few years back for me.

Hello Al We were wondering what the NMCA index classes would be ? Do you have any information on them ? May have some interest in them. thanks Bob

Here's the Index deal in a nutshell:

1/4 second indexes from 8.5 to 13.0
5 tenths pro tree, handicap start.

I've done it and it's a lot of fun.

Do you pick the index and then you run off that, no dial in? For example all the 10.50 cars would run off of 10.50

Albert Lee · 03-25-2019, 04:37 PM

Yes, you pick an index before the last qualifier and it doesn't change after that. In eliminations, all cars race together so there is usually a handicap start on the 5 tenths pro tree.

As I mentioned, it's a lot of fun!! I think I'll double enter and try my luck.

We had two of our local racers from Mitchell double entry last year and went to late rounds in both classes. They said it was a blast and are doing it again this year. They really enjoyed the pro tree. This is going to be a great weekend with a Stick Shift race and test and tune on Friday and 4000 dallors both Saturday and Sunday what's not to LIKE. Don't miss this great event plus don't forget about the Wally
