Re: Big Money Class Races-our thoughts
NSS cars are a good fit in the STK/SS world and are included in several of the Association races. There are a good number of NSS cars in the Midwest to draw from. Michael Beard had this right.
Joliet may be the best location for all but its cost and future don’t look good. |

Re: Big Money Class Races-our thoughts
Something to consider, when WE are the show....who is the FILLER ??? We need some sort of filler ...to minimize the downtime....I believe a nice $$ nostalgia race would fit right in ???? Like YAC said, SPECTATORS....$$$$. Sure can help the bottom line. .......

Re: Big Money Class Races-our thoughts
From a pretty good source in the first 25 k race the last eight split the prize money. Same thing in the CIC stock race, the top two had a deal. There are some pretty Classy Racers out there. It is not always about the money. Tom

Re: Big Money Class Races-our thoughts
Hi Larry Was good to see you in St Loius . We have some good races scheduled at Earlville this season and would love to have you there. I can assure you that steps are being taken to maintain consistency with traction at these races. The challenge is the large car count puts a strain on the track, but I have faith in Reed and Bill to take care of us. thanks Bob

Re: Big Money Class Races-our thoughts
Bob if large car counts are the problem the track has to know it’s limitations. The choice is simple, limit entries to what they can provide value to, a good racing experience. Rent equipment and expertise to handle the surge or move it to a quality track.
