Where else can you get an all heads up eliminator in Stock and Super Stock?

As far as I know, that ONLY happens at Pat Joffrion's CIC race at the Cajun Sportsnationals...and it's not the regular eliminations, but a separate race for fun. I really hope he's still doing it when I finally get my car done.

I just read something about heads up racing on the sportsnationals page, and it got my hopes up. I would love no break out racing. I am working on a set up that will probably qualify real well, but not be consistent. Its sort of a starter for me for class racing. If I can get a record or 2, maybe win class at Indy, and maybe a/some number 1 qualifying spots, I will think about building a something more consistent. I love class racing, but to me I cant justify running a class car if I am not going to be a contender heads up. Might as well run a .90 class. I definitely understand why people do, I just cant justify it.
