Inquiries I've received fall into one of the four following categories:
A. I have an eligible car, ready to race or show, and plan on attending either Bowling Green or Charlotte.
B. I have a car which I will modify with the intention of being ready to race in 2010.
C. I intend to build a car for future competition.
D. I’m a fan and would love to see more of these cars.
If you wish to be a part of this program please PM me with your Postal mailing address, email address, photo of your car, or plans for a future vehicle.

For now it's Ohio, Indy, Bowling Green, Charlotte and Chicago. We may go to Washington state and SoCal in 2011.

BTW for those of you who asked, E85 is permitted.

If anyone is interested in Bowling Green, you have to pre-register with me asap if you want to get paid and get free entry. I've got Chevies coming but, so far, no Mopars.

It looks like the Class 2 cars have quite an advantage in lower weight and still can run a big engine. It looks like the Class 1 cars have to run smaller than 366 CID to run at 2100#, but the Class 2 cars run at 2100# with no restriction on engine size. Maybe I'm not reading it right, or something is missing from the rules.

Maybe it doesn't matter. The cars are run on an index of the driver's choosing. Where's the advantage? The Class 2 rules are based on NHRA Outlaw Pro Stocks of the mid seventies. The Class 1 cars were never run in an "outlaw" configuration, because they were already "outlaw" Super Stocks.

Yep, I don't see how anyone can have an advantage index racing.

Nice shot of the Stepp Arrow. I know the current owner has been collecting pieces to redo the car.

OK, what happened to the great unvailing at Bowling Green? I never even heard a class call for Nostalgia Pro Stock. Did the mist on Thursday and Friday scare them away? The altered ran it's best times this year last weekend, also ran it's quickest 60 ft. times. With the Nostalgia Funny Cars in the 5's, you can't say the track wasn't there!

Well the weather really blew at Bowling Green. Drizzle all day Thursday and Friday, the temp never got much above 50 degrees. Sat am it was 38 degrees. Got all of the racing in and Sunny was beautiful. No P/S cars though, but plenty of drivers and owners stopped by to chat. Everyone is excited about next year. Congrats to HemiFred and Tom Bryant for getting the ball rolling at zMax next week!

*** Any one planning on attending who's traveling to NC from the west beware I-40 is closed between mile marker 2 and 8 for a massive rock slide over the weekend. The detour takes you about an hour north to Johnson City TN then back down. Heres a DOT link for the detour.
http://www.ncdot.org/traffictravel/TIMS_Incidents/I-40_Slides_Map_2009.pdf

Good Luck to all who are attending

I missed the index "bracket" racing part. I thought they would be heads-up racing. Somewhat disappointed with that approach.

there's no other way to keep it from becoming a big money class. it all for fun right now



This from a guy that's having a 604 Hemi being built. Fred, that would work to your advantage. I think the spectators would like to see some heads-up racing.

The best racing is all heads-up that I can see - Hemi Shootouts, Pro Mod, T/S, etc. Not cheap classes at all though. There is always someone with too much money, like 700 CID Super Gas cars with Pro Stock chassis, etc. If I can't win in this class, I'll drop down until I can kick everyone's butt.
