Would 3 great races be enough for the first year?

What would be the 3 tracks that you guys as racers would pick

What would be furthest you would travel (keep in mind payouts will be guaranteed)

For the Super Pro and Pro classes, what would be the most you would feel comfortable paying?

How would you like recognized at the end of the season? Cash, gift, party, free entry for the following year?


Keep in mind we are pretending here guys!!! I have some oppurtunities that I am working on that could be pretty good but I cant do this with 200 race cars and disgruntled customers (racers)

I believe that I made that statement on sept 9,2011.I offered indy,gateway,michigan and ohio or south.would make gateway last stop as it was original home of mmw.offer those that attend every one upto finals,1 or 2 free weekend passes or 1 race car free entry or????could be very interesting if not patterned after other two series.

Bands, BBQs, BEER....BABES.....

Just some suggestions: From some no-name races being put on that usually pack the House with Car counts and spectators."Standing room only"

Try to acquire some decent Cash sponsors for pay out.

Money talks! all the people saying they will only travel 6-8 hrs. You make the pay-out right and I bet they would go 10-12-14hrs.

I know a promoter in the South Pulling cars from upper New England states, Texas and California when he puts on a race.

Another idea is if the field is at least xx number of cars in a class entry fees are paid back for that class. Usually being 32-50+ cars on a 16-car field.

I understand your needing to only do 3 races the first year. I been talking to another promoter about pointers of doing something in Texas when I finally get out of the desert and these events take a lot of time and coordination on many levels. Even small events.

I'd suggest 3 major tracks in the given area and make them when things are slow at other tracks and events and for families.
1=Spring when the tracks open
2=End of summer
3=End of year before the track closes for Winter.

Maybe even reduce the Number of classes and be a bit creative with Classes. Make up your Own!!!

Be creative and Flamboyant with your advertising!!! Think old skool ads for drag racing (1960's) with Modern technology and Twists.

You payout like you did at Indy and I have no issue driving 8 hours.
Columbus always draws a crowd and is within 6-8 hours of a large majority of Mopars.
As far as the points go, I dont mind products but if a guy wins the deal he should be able to use most of the products that he wins.
