What happened to it being in June when it always is? And why are we possibly moving to Quaker city? July and August are so hot most years that I usually don't bother racing.
Andy, PRP has been leased by the Tedescos to a management company. Bob George posted sometime during the Holidays that he was having a problem with scheduling the meet at PRP on the usual dates for some reason and is trying to keep the meet together one way or another. He may have to have it a Quaker city because of this.

AJ....August 10 is also the weekend of BSD's Flashback Friday (the 9th), as well as the 422 AllStars NSS race the next day. Not as big as the Nostalgia Nats, but still a big deal.
That would hurt car count.

I would be for either weekend in August at either track you can secure. What other race is in June besides MM on the 28th? Maybe earlier in June Russ

Josh has moved Monster Mopar at Indy to June as well as many other Mopar races that have been schudled.As I mention in other post too many races in June will hurt the attendence at all these events. If someone has a full race schudle for all this years Mopar events maybe post them so we can see what i'am referring to. I have met with both PRP and Quaker and they both wish to have the event.If we can't decide on a viable date and track then there is not much point in trying to compete and not have a successfull event. We are welcoming everyones imput. Respectfully Bob

Here is what I have listed on my calender but not sure of which ones I will go to. This is a listing of the ones that do interest me. As you will see I have no interest in the Mopower events so they are not listed!
6/22 Sled City Nostalgia 6/28 MM Indy 7/19 Blue Suede Crusie w/NSS race Norwalk 7/28 JJ Chrysler Classic 8/1 Doug Duell NSS 8/24 JJ Chrysler Classic or Norwalk NMCA 9/13 MM Norwalk
These are weekend dates and may show Friday but are 2 or 3 day races.

That looks like a really go schedule for every one.

Personally, I think early June is the time to hold it. The MD race is over, and nothing big seems to go on until the Sled City deal. The weather hasn't gotten really hot yet. Besides, no one has blown their stuff up yet. I could be wrong, but isn't Josh's race in St. Louis; Indy or somewhere a bit further west? With fuel being what it is, I don't see that as a real direct competitor. Anyway, that's my

Like to 19-21 July weekend. Quaker is a slower track, but for those who haven't been there. In every other way it is a better facility. The pits are not gravel all over. The rest room and shower facilities are there. Too me its all about location as well. Quaker overall is a nicer place to race. Please take a look at there web page if you have never been there. Boardman is right around the corner for night time activities as well. Alot of times they have car cruises down town as well. Thank you, Ken Michalik
I haven't been to Quaker since the Pumpkin race that closed the 2011 season. Did they add showers and restrooms? I know they used to be there, but in 2011, with all the changes, the bathrooms and showers got taken out... there were only portajohns. Did it change last year, or for this coming season? In no way am I trying to pick on QC... I just wouldn't want anyone voting for it thinking they have shower facilties and can camp out, if there aren't any. I do agree the grass is great, and there are plenty of wide open staging lanes.

I voted for August, but June 7 - 9 looks wide open for someone to have a race. Pittsburgh would be great and or Quaker City. Thanks / Gary
I second the June 7-9 date at Quaker City. This looks to be good fit, plenty of time between it and Monster Mopar at Indy. I do not think you will conflict with the Sled Citys event. How many on this board raced the Sled City?? NSS had less than 16 cars, No Box- maybe 30 cars, etc. Early June as Gary said is WIDE OPEN. Racers need to schedule their vacation time asap, probably too late for some.

There were a few from this board there, and all you know that I race 100% Mopars and have been since 1967. But I want to be honest with you , there sure were a lot of Fords in the winners circle and I would like to see the Mopars in that spot. Support the event and come out and whip some Fords aces. Check out the picture from that event at www.sledcityevents.com. Thanks N/SS guy for the plug!

I agree with Gary, second week in june would be great. I would like Pittsburg as it has been the Curt George location since it's start. That being said, we would attend whenever wherever. I know the Short horse racing team will be bringing 8 to 12 cars Thanks, Noel

The Chrysler Power Classic and All-Hemi Reunion is scheduled for Tri-State Dragway in Hamilton, OH, August 24-25, 2013. Marion County, Ohio is still up in the air. We'll also be doing an event October 19-20 in a slightly warmer climate. There will probably be another event, but it will depend on what BG is doing. It won't interfere with the Memorial.
