BTW, what were the car counts at Numidia? Any coverage out there on the 'web?
Don't think DRC was there...right?

Rob...please try and keep this event alive for next year and beyond. Know it's tough..
trying to find a "clean" weekend...with other events drawing entries away...I want to
go to yours...

Who said drag racing was "dying"?

We had 12 Super Stockers enter but, Jeff Tripp & Eddie Bloom both broke on Friday so we had 10 total. 15 Stockers entered but, I know Rich Aman broke at E-Town, Demarzo was sick and Jim Harris broke on Friday. So it left us with a total of 22. We had 12 cars enter the Quickfuel Combo Race on Friday Night. After taking to Nitro Joe I decided to turn it into a combo event so I didn't totally lose my shirt on the event.

I'm not sure if their will be another one of not. Just feel like I put a ton of effort into the event and no one showed up. I just hope that Mike Beards race in Ohio is a successful one and people just aren't on here blowing things up, saying they are going to come and then don't. I know it was up against Charlotte and some racers are chasing the World. Worners, Katie, etc and I was rooting them on all weekend and understand you may only get 1 shot at the WC (I actually told Katie that in a text on Thursday...through Kelli Barbato). Some racers texted me and messaged me on FB & Here to let me know they support it but, just cant get off from work. Is it location, I don't know but, to have 94 Stockers, 80 Super Stockers, 62 Super Street, 59 Super Gas & 89 Super Comp at E-Town the weekend before and then have a total of 87 Cars at Numidia just baffles my mind. We were actually down 33 cars from when Lee, Brian and I did it last year

I'm going to get through the final MASCA/MASSA Race at Atco in 2 weeks then start to decide what the next step is.
