Does it have to be in August? Div 4 is smart enough to skip July & August. Too stinking hit to be any fun.

I agree. Would be nice to have more races on the west side of Division 5!

How about Earlville the week before Brainerd Nat
And Earlville the week after Indy Nats

The real question is how does an event get added? Perhaps a sportsman nationals without alcohol cars? Distance is certainly a factor. What are the good options?

I do not know how NHRA & D5 pick a track or how much said track has to pay to hold an event or if Tri-State would want another event.

But if I were running a business, I would put the event where I would get the biggest car count / return on investment.

Be fun to have a back-to-back weekend there, or better yet, move Topeka and go Earlville-Indy-Earlville...

It would be nice to have a race later in the fall. Being done at the first part of September when you do not start until Late May, if you race just Div 5 does not give you a shot at the REAL GOOD air. Maybe then we could some damage instead of our East /West coast brothers.
