Memphis Combos - roll call!

TRWMotorsports · 02-24-2012, 01:13 PM

Hey folks,

Just a quick note from the office here at Memphis International Raceway.

The topic of Combos has come up several times and the Track Manager Paul Cartwright and I wanted to reach out to the class car community.

We wanted to know who would be in for some down home Saturday Night 1/4-mile fun here in the Mid South?!?

Also, if the area tracks worked together then a 2-day, 2-race possibility could exist. Saturday night 1/4-mile fun, Sunday afternoon 1/8-mile action!

We're planning around the IHRA points meet, NHRA national/points meet, and Bowling Green schedules and have identified 3-4 dates that appear to be pretty clear.

So gang, who's in for some down home fun, Saturday Night Combo Shootout style?

It's Roll Call time!!!

From the Combo Pits,

Count me in, it will be fun.

Fred Connell · 02-24-2012, 03:49 PM

You can count me in. 2-day I like even better.

If you run anything 1/4 mile ie.. combos, bracket racing, 8.90 9.90.10.90 etc. count me and many more local racers in that are chomping at the bit to run quarter mile again.

i'd be interested in a 2 day combo for sure

I might come for a two day race. You guys need to re- think the dates on your points race. I know a lot of folks that won't come to Memphis to race in August.

Woke up to about 4-6 inches of heavy wet snow.Racing anywhere in August has to be better than this.

Quick update gang...

I've spoken to drivers in 3 states that have committed to being here. Several have agreed to pass the word to their buddies in the SS/S ranks to join the fun too.

Now, as Track Manager Paul Cartwright has said, "We just need to find a date."

Our hope is the area tracks will work together so a 2 day Combo event for class cars could take place.

That would rock wouldn't it!?!
