I am pleased to announce that the 2012 .90 Nationals will be held on June 9th, 2012 at Numidia Dragway. Once again we will do the free test & tune on Friday June 8th, 2012 from 12 to 5pm. Also if their is enough interest we will try to throw together a high-roller race on Friday night for a small entry fee for all 3 classes. We will also be throwing together the racers BBQ on Saturday Night for all racers & crew to attend to be prepared by Uncle Buck. We are still working out a race for Sunday or we may just leave that as a travel day for most of you. Entry fee's will be adjusted just a bit for the event as the $155.00 entry fee is already completed but, the $170 entry fee will re-open today till May 6th. Remember by pre-entering by the May 6th date you get entered into the raffle for some cool prizes (GC Towards a Brodix Block, Accelerated Travel G.C., Buy 1 Get 1 from Hoosier Tires, Etc) The entry fee from May 7th till the gate opening will be $190.00 (It's $10.00 cheaper then the 2011 rate). As always the purse to win will be $5,000 to win in each class plus contingency certificates from sponsors. I'm also working to combine this race with the Combo in the Hills Stk/SS Race for some of you that might have a Stk/SS & .90 Car. We are trying to put together a sportsman race that everyone will be talking for a long time. So mark the calenders and put that personal time in at work....the .90 Nationals are here!!!

Haha Quiet down Tom! Why do you think I picked the week after the Englishtown National Event (They have Paved Pits) and I won't have to worry about the pits being too muddy...unless the lake overflows.....

Some of you may have read on the Stock/SS page but, I'm pleased to announce that we will combining the .90 Nationals & the Combo In The Hills II together for 1 huge weekend of sportsman racing on June 8th & 9th at Numidia Dragway. Friday June 8th will be a FREE Test & Tune put on by Track Owner Bob Dimino, Brian, Lee & Myself. The FREE Test & Tune will run from 12 to 4pm ( I can't promise how many time shots you will receive that day as we will run everyone in groups so we don't have to switch the tree over from a .400/.500 Pro to .5 Tenths when we run the Stk/SS guys ). After the Test & Tune is complete Numidia will have to do some minor prep work to get ready for their normal Friday Night Street Session. At that time Lee & Brian will be putting together a special "CIC" Race for the Stk/SS Guys and to give back to the .90 Guys we will run a special "Top 32 Shootout" that will be open to all 3 classes (1 race for S/St, 1 for S/G, 1 for S/C). The entry for that event will be $75.00 and it will guarantee $1,000 to the winner of each class. We hope to get 1 or 2 rounds in before Numidia starts their Street Night and we will fit in the remaining rounds in between (Trust me if you've never been to Numidia on a Friday Night...Bob packs the stands with people).
On Saturday June 9th we will kick off the .90 Nationals / Combo in the Hills event at 9am with 2 qualifying shots for everyone. Stock will be the first to hit the well-prepped Numidia Strip in the morning followed by Super Gas (Make sure you set your alarms since I know your not used to being out 2nd), Super Stock, Super Street & Super Comp. Once qualifying is complete we will take a quick 15-20 minute break to groom the track, let the track crew get a breather & a bite to eat. We will stick with the same run order that we had for qualifying with Stock running 1st round followed by Super Gas (We have a few double up racers in SG & S/ST & a few Racers have S/G & S/C Cars they may double enter so to give them time to not rush around). 1st round will be random pairings for all classes and 2nd round you will go on a ladder till we are complete. On Saturday Night Myself, Uncle Buck and the Donhausers will be putting together a FREE BBQ for all the racers and family (Hopefully we bring enough food) to come and enjoy. This will though be a BYOB (Bring your own Boooze) as my pockets only go soooo deep unless I get some supporters who want to pitch in and want to give me some cash or bring a side dish. Also if your not into BBQ's Knoebel's Amusement Park will be open on Friday and Saturday Night for all to enjoy. On Sunday I assume Bob and his Crew will have a Summit Series Bracket Race for all to enjoy with a pretty nice payout. Here is a layout for the $$ Payout for the .90 Nationals... Top 32 Shootout: (S/St, S/G, S/C) W: $1,000 RU: $500 Semi: $250 3rd Round: $100 .90 Nationals: (Based off of 85 Cars per Class) W: $5,000 RU: $2,000 Semi: $1,000 1/4 Final: $ 500 4th Round: $225 3rd Round: $120 Entry Fee Info: 1st Pre-Entry: $155 (Completed & Not Open) 2nd Pre-Entry: $170 - Open till May 6th Final Entry: $190 - Can Pre-Pay after May 7th till the Gate (Cash Only at the Gate) Address to Pre-Entry: Rob Keister 1887 N. Delsea Dr. #152 Vineland, NJ 08360 Hope to see everyone there.... |

Hope everyone had a great Holiday!
I've set up a PayPal account for the .90 Nationals for anyone who would like to Pre-Pay for the event rather then having to mail out a check and risk of it getting lost in the mail. Just go onto www.paypal.com and put my e-mail address ( Rekeister@aol.com ) into the file and you can pay that way. This should make things a lot easier in the future for those who want to pre-enter. ** Just an FYI If you decide to go with the PayPal route you will need to add the fee of $10.00 that PayPal charges for the transaction. So it's not really saving much for you but, it does give you another option to pay with if you choose too ** Rob K. Last edited by BKSG1198; 12-28-2011 at 03:13 PM. |

Well I hope everyone is doing well!
Not too much to report on the home front since a lot of things are already in place from last year. All the sponsors that were going to support this race last year have signed back on for the 2012 version. We have less then 4 months to go before we kick off this great event and the pre-entry list is holding strong. You have up till May 6th to enter at the rate of $170.00 before it goes up to $190.00. Hopefully gas will not be an issue and not hit $5.00 a gallon by June because I think a lot of us will be cutting back on out racing plans for 2012. Remember Lee, Brian & Myself are here to put together a sportsman race for all the racers and we hope to see everyone support it! It will be a great time I promise you!!!

A few of you have asked about the "Top 32 Shootout" that we are offering on Friday Night. If many of you remember back in day at Divisional Events for a small fee Division 1 would put together a shootout for the Top 8 or 16 Qualifiers at each event and they would have a small race later on at night. I'm pretty sure that D-3 still does something similar to that. Since we will not be qualifying on Friday the way the "Shootout" will work is at 3pm the day of the Test & Tune I will make an announcement over the PA system that anyone who would like to sign-up for the event to please meet me at the base of the tower and we will settle up there. Once the 32 drivers are paid ($75.00) and on the list the class is closed for the night. I would love to expand it to a larger field but, the Stk/SS guys are running a CIC Race that Night and Numidia has a Friday Night Street Program which, if you've never been there on a Friday Night you would think it was a National Event as the stands are packed. Those events start at 6pm and I will try to have at least 1 round completed by that time. Time will dictate if I will be allowing a time shot beforehand so it will be important to get a few shots in at the Free Test & Tune from 12-4. The winner of the Top 32 Shootout will pocket $1,000 to start off their weekend and the Runner-Up will pocket $500.00 and we will pay back till the 3rd round loser.
As far as the race itself on Saturday June 9th, we plan on getting started early at 9am with Stock, then into Super Gas till we give all 5 classes 2 time shots so hopefully eliminations will kick off around 2-3pm with Stock. Remember it is still random pairings for 1st round and we will basically be pulling from random lanes so everyone needs to be on their toes. The pre-entry is still at $170.00 till May 6th (Atco Open) then it will go to $190.00 after that and at the gate. As Lee & Brian have said "You Support it, I'll pay it" so the plan is $5,000 for 85 cars each class but, if we get more then that I'm willing to up the purse. Remember I'm not in this fight to make money for myself but, as long as I can cover my cost's for items I'll be glad to pay it back to the racers. So tell you friends, pass the flier out to anyone you may know and get those entries in ASAP. Also the racers BBQ is coming together very well and should be a great time for all and of course if you want to stay on Sunday Numidia will be offering up a Summit Equipment Bracket Race that could pay up to $2,500 to the winner. Last but, not least Numidia will be playing host to their 2nd annual "Superbucks in the Hills" the following weekend on June 15th to 17th which will pay either $5,000 or $10,000 to the winners in Super Pro. So far we are at: Super Comp: 12 Super Gas: 25 Super Street: 11 Any questions feel free to e-mail or call Rob Keister .90 Nationals 856-332-2851 |
