Just checking in to see who all is planning on being there for the Race, Car Show, Swap Meet & Car Corral.

By the way ALL Race Class Payouts are guaranteed this year.

I'm gonna be there with two cars this year, gonna run two classes Electronics with the 74 Dart Sport, and the Modern Mopar Hemi Shootout in an 09' Hemi Challenger !!

Who else is coming an what class(s) you going to be running ??

It's funny how they split up the classes for "footbrake" racing. What if your car normally runs in the 11.80 or so range? Can't quite make the 7.50 min dial in the 1/8th mile = 1st round duck......or dial 2 tenths of cushion to run the 12.00 and slower 1/4 mile = 1st round duck. Just saying that they could have had a small overlap of the two classes and not put anyone in this situation.

We have listened and we are responding. We have effective today, changed the PRO Eliminator bracket to be 11.70 and slower, Foot brake.

Also, we want everyone to know that you may run more than one class. And even though your race car isn't going to be in attendance, race your MOPAR tow truck, or your wife's Viper, or your mother's Sundance. Just come race or show with us. Have a good time. Look forward to seeing everyone there.

We haven't amended the Flyer - but the change to PRO Eliminator has been made and will be in effect.

I plan on going even though Texas Raceway is having a points race. Mom is coming too. I know I may be in the minority here but a quick electronics and quick no/e class would be cool too. You know me Bill I want to race as much as I can but don't have a electronics car ready right now.

Thanks Bill....looks like that covers everyone.
I don't have anything else "Mopar" to race since my wife traded her Charger R/T, but I will be there regardless. Maybe in the swap area.

Sam we have appreciated your participation in the past Mopars at the Motorplex events. Sorry you won't be there with us this year. We have strived this year to make this the best event we possibly can, including the partnership with Mopar Action's Mega Mopar Action Series and with the Texas Motorplex. Last year the payout was not guaranteed, and it was announced at the event that payouts would be adjusted according to car count, which is what happened.
This year each class payout is guaranteed by their Sponsors - monies for payouts are intact and will be paid as advertised, regardless of car count.
We are sorry you are going to miss this stellar event, Hope to see you next year however.

I guess I'll try to make it to check out the DP Challenger. I haven't seen one up close since the 2008 Hemi Reunion.

It looks like I will be there driving Rick's wagon. If anyone else needs a driver for a different class I will bring my fire suit and be ready.

We sure want to see the Evolution Custom Auto Drag Pac Challenger there. Maybe Hughes will get it corrected and back to you in time - Tommy, your crew chief works great under pressure !!

All indications for weather look very positive. Forcast right now for both Friday and Saturday is for mid to high 80's, lower humidity and partly cloudy skys.

Guys let's show the world that we MOPAR guys & gals can bring out more participants and spectators than Super Chevy !!
We are anticipating a big turn out on Friday night for MOPARS against the World.

If you come out on Friday evening for that, you can pre-pay for the Saturday Mopars at the Motorplex event and stay the night at the track.

It's looking like the Car Show is going to be as awesome as the racing.

See ya there

I'll be dragging my Hemi powered 69 Sat. up friday evening from Houston, probably too late for MATW. I'll be bringing 3 friends along too. Trying to get another friend with a 69RR on board also. Any good hotels close to the track?
