Some of the racers were from the southeast where they race 1/8 mile mostly. MIR reached out to them, and along with the 1/4 mile racers reached that agreement. Royce then installed a MPH clock/photo cell for the 1000 ft timer. Seemed like everyone liked it, not very often you see 71 stick cars these days. Not many NHRA/IHRA Stock or Super/Stock cars there though, hopefully it will catch on.

Mike,

How about a fall race instead of spring? Weather can be very IFFY in the great white north and yes we have had snow that time of year.
