Lets also think outside the box as well!!! We have to come up with things that people love to do/see that doesnt cost a billion dollars to pull off.

Josh, I dont wish to be unduely cynical, (I know, I know, theres always a guy like me in the crowd) but, that could be taken to mean moving away from a family friendly atmosphere, ya know, where you now have to careful what the kiddies will be seeing and hearing etc. and the other "activities" that tends to attract. Is this the direction you want to take the show or is this just a statement to get ideas from folks?  Just curious.
Thanks.

My  for what ever it's worth.....
I personally can't run another points series till after my kids are done with Jrs. They need to be in their points chase in order to win a spot on the Team that goes to the Conf Finals and as such I need to be there with/for them. They do take my priority. As such I have been forced to run only at the Norwalk mopar event only as it doesn't interfere with the kids racing.
However, if there are better Mopar races that don't conflict with the home track weekend series I would be happy to consider those if they are within a reasonable distance. I really don't like much over the 5 Hr drive as it makes getting back a decent hour to go to work the next morning a strain.
As for the B's, a band and BBQ would be a nice addition but the other 2 while certain to draw a crowd are leaning too much towards the ricer boys lifestyle and are almost certain to draw the wrong type of crowd. If that were to be the case I would most certainly pass on such an event.
I also must consider the entry fee's vs the pay out. I understand that it's a "special event" and a weekend long one at that but{at least from where I stand} I can race all 4 cars for Fri TnT and the Sat program for about what the entry cost for just for the 2 cars {assuming we don't enter the gamblers} at the Mopower events and the payout isn't as good.

I WAS going to hold my tounge...but
Lenny why on earth would you not want to race at a track that has TECH??? I have raced down south, and that 20.00 and ok is scary to me. Id rather know the guy in the next lane is not going to kill me or wreck my car than to just have "loose" tech.
ALSO i cant beleive the amount of racers dont want to drive more than 4 -6 hours??? Like i say i drove 13 by myself, i understand if its the money but i must have a different mind set ???
Not bashing anyone, just my observations....LOL
OK let me have it now
OH yea and can you just have some wet t shirt (Spray them down with the beer and or ice water )contest after all the old folks went to bed in thier RV's ????
....BAD A$$ STREET CAR.....

I DID NOT say no tech!!! Most of the racers in the south are IHRA.They will not go get a NHRA license for one or two races.The tech at E-town is killer.They kicked me out for going 9.70s it was my first pass in the 9s back in EZ street days.Cost me the race!!! CHIT like that is why you see no southern guys going north.
And for the beer and babes count me in!!!!! I go racing to get the hell away from the family!!!! LOL Just kidding but some people need to pull their panties out of their crack.

Not really into bikini girls, but I don't mind if they are there. Husband said heck yeah! I'd prefer hot guys. Better truck them in though...'cause I've seen many of you in person and you wouldn't look good up there.  LOL

Josh, If you run it , I will go. East of the Mississippi is best for me. The only thing that gets in the way is that thing called work. Would not run points though, have to be flexable.
you guys on teh east coast are die hard!!!
Chuck I appreciate it!
