As alot of people on here know, 20 years ago was THE U.S. Classnationals. The date was chosen based on 2 assumptions. 1, availability. Byron always had something going on. We were able to get something fit into their schedule on a shorter notice. 2, that the NHRA and IHRA would have somewhat of an involvement, and be good enough to NOT put a race up agianst us. Thus giving any racer who wanted to race the event a choice to race or stay home. As opposed to Race here, or there. Denver was not actually on their schedule yet when we approached them to have discussions. NHRA CHOSE to put Denver against our race. NHRA also said they would not change their date.

In our case, Byron was chosen for they way they operated by getting cars down the track. 20 years later, Id still do it again, and right back at that place. 150 degrees in the shade or not.

Tyler, If I can help you in any way, just ask. I will see where I can.

Firstly, I would like to say THANK YOU to Tyler the GREAT for this opportunity to race for big bucks. Secondly, if you don’t know the Bohannon family, you are missing out....They are wonderful folks...I have seen the flyer on FB but had a real hard time reading the rules..(old eyes) ....Are you capping the entries at 128 stockers OR , are you qualifying the fastest 128 stockers from let’s say 150 entries ? MJ .....

Hey guys!

Apologies for taking a while to respond. I will post an update on here tomorrow as well but below I will give you the basics.

I have attempted to blow the rules up a little better and will put that in with my post tomorrow

Any and all info can be found on our site racederbycity.com or Facebook.

Comp eliminator will be turning into an open field as long as you pre enter on our site January 12th. So if you’re comp racer, you want to be in on this. Over 32 cars pays $10,000 to win!!!!!

Pre entry date is JANUARY 12th. ONCE AGAIN, PRE ENTRY OPENS JANUARY 12.

We will capping this race at 128 stockers and 128 super stockers. That could change in the future but for this one, we will leave it like that.

Mr. D, THANK YOU! Having the support means a lot! You know scheduling isn’t easy! I’ll more than likely get a hold of you with questions. Never can be too knowledgable.

Also guys, as always. Feel FREE to contact me 502-417-0008 if I’m not responding on here, or if you just want to talk for a bit!
