Guys I really hate that I could not make the 2 races this year.Family and life got the best of my this year.But I raced KOS for 95-03 only missed 1 race.So I think I've run about all the tracks that we could run at.Here is the good and bad!!!!
GOOD!!! The ROCK!! Steve will help any way he can! There is already a Mopar show in the sping,so it's easy to work this in.
Columbus has always been easy to work with.Nice track and easy to get to for everyone.
Bristol is an awsome track!!!The Mopar race has taken a hit in the last 5years but still a great place!
Clay city always a great place to race!! Fans love fast cars!
THE BAD!!!
The tracks up north are hard as HELL to get to!! Toll roads and DMV take the fun out of it for me. Tech at places like E-town will keep alot of racers away!!!! DID I SAY I HATE THE TRACKS UP NORTH!!!!!! LOL
A series is a great idea.I loved the old KOS days.Chit we raced all over for chicken feed.So the money is not the only thing.Places we went made us feel like KINGS.
Thanks Lenny and yes I plan to race next year.
No toll roads to get to Norwalk, Indy, Milan, Martin or any of the other Ohio tracks. Don't group the East coast tracks with the Midwest ones.

I have thought of both of those tracks and they are not 1/4 mile tracks, and for a lot of racers in the pro and super pro classes as well as others, it is just not worth their time to run 1/8th mile.
Edgewater is a 1/4 mile track where the racers voted to run 1/8th.

Milan/Martin/Ubly/Stanton/ Michigan Tracks No toll roads here.... Just bumpy roads OHIO Tracks Norwalk/Columbus/KilKare(Small track) $$ TollRoads and still bumpy. There's about, What 10 tracks in Ohio alone? I will drive up to 13 hours to go to a race that's my limit (Bristol)

My wish list kind looks like this
A nice track in Ohio Indy Englishtown Pittsburgh Martin Michigan / Milan
Englishtown is probably more of a stand alone event from The stand point that much west of Pennsylvania would not make that trip except for the diehards. it would still be on the points series but I really would be looki g at a completely different group of people to attend that event.
Nice track in ohio is gonna get you. because norwalk did a contract with mo-power so no other mopar race is there. and you already have 2 mopar races at National Trails. which nhra will not allow another one. there has to be 90 days between same brand events. so the the Classics and Mopar nats are grandfahered in..
Call it a hunch but I bet there aint gonna be no Mo-Power event at Trails or Norwalk next season.
Here's an update for everyone. Just so you know, National Trail, Norwalk, Kil-Kare, US-131 and Pittsburgh are all parties to a "bankruptcy". Knowingly or not, that means they are unable to book any new "Mopar type" events without permission of the court, which won't happen. However, I am planning the all-new Chrysler Power points series, hopefully for 2012.
I've had a nice conversation with Josh and he did a Kick A job at Indy, especially for a newbie. Keep your ideas coming. There is definitely a Mopar Points Series on the horizon!
I'll share more details with folks in person at my Ohio Mopar Expo in Columbus, November 19th.
