Thanks to Michael for attempting.

Correct Mike, the first year did have a nice turnout BUT ....the second year tanked. Michael put his money and AZZ on the line and we let him down.....All the complaining about NHRA and most of us are standing in line to take more abuse. .STRANGE ......

No the date and location were horrible. 2 weeks before US NATS and at Columbus(National Trails) in August.

My son Jon Irving ( BoulderCitytrailers.com) is sponsoring a Stock/SS Combo at LVMS on the weekend of March 22. This is in conjunction with
Muscle Cars at the Strip and the stands are usually pretty full because we are the Stars for a change. 100 % payback plus a decent purse and contigency as well we hope. If he gets at least 16 cars he will do it
regularly.

His phone is (702) 563 -9144 Before 8 PM

If you give him a chance to give you a quote on your next trailer
it would help him to do this regularly.

If it was me I would stay away from "association"

I would just promote indavidual races at differenat race tracks across the counrty. Put together a list of classes and the class rules and see who shows up. Think something like a big buck bracket race but with classes.

As soon as you make it an association with champions and crap people will start getting stuiped.

I would have to agree but, ....Michael was hell bent on making this weekend work. The weather was actually nice, just not much participation....
