Wow,do some guys get wound up over nothing around here or what?
Josh puts on a good show,the payout goes back a few rounds instead of all the money to the guy who had a good day. I'll be there unless I blow my junk up before then.
Thanks Josh!!!

What the heck did I miss.


It doesn't matter what class you race.

Just show up and race.

I need 500 race cars at each event and 500 show cars.


As long as we can make that happen we can do this forever.

That being said, mr big bucks with the dragster.... You should throw some cash into the purse instead of wasting it on a grudge race. Just think how big of a kick you could get out of racin the MRMopar622 super pro class.

Sponsors inquire here
<----------

A d Incase anyone doesn't know. The more cars I get the more I can raise the payout. I want all 7 classes to pay 3 grand to win both days eventually

And if enough cars show up this year ill pay that.

As stated before I'm rich and don't need the money.

Can't believe anybody complaining about your payouts, they are very good and entry fees are quite reasonable. Poppaj

Not all are complaining, but offering a different point of view. I agree that $1500 for $75 is a good payout, but the same money for Pro and Sportsman makes me think of borrowing my friend's 12-second pump gas Duster and running Sportsman. It will be 1 or 2 less rounds to win and I will save a bunch on fuel. The 12 runs I made at NTR last week cost me about $70 in fuel.

That's a good point of view.


What I hope it does is makes people enter multiple cars in multiple classes.

Borrow the 12 second car and run your regular class as well.

I too think that's a real nice pay-out. Didn't Josh also feed people and pay for a band too. Its real easy to sit back and complain about this and that but if you would even begin to know how much work is involved maybe, just maybe a few of you guys would wise up. Then again maybe not.
The same guys would be the first to complain if these races and car shows stopped existing. Wise up and shut up before its to late.


1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.42@138.27

Livin and lovin life one day at a time

Not much of a reason to bring anymore than a good street car, enter in 2 classes, maybe 3,

what most people forget is this is a hobby not a profession,,we all would like to get some money back to help offset the cost but it's still a hobby.


Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

No THANKS!!! I'll stick with my Bracket & Grudge Racing & put my $$$ into that.Besides that is the reason my partners got out of the Mud Truck racing(after teaming up together they won several championships,$$$ talks)they put on a Big Mud race,the kind all of the Mud Racers wanted & were gonna sponsor the series the next year.They rented(Josh you know what it cost)a track to hold 200+ Mud Racers,well only about 20 showed up!Long story short I had been trying to talk them into doing some Drag Racing and they had been trying to get me to do some Mud Racing with them.After that race they called me and told me what it would take for us to do some Drag Racing,they wanted to do some BIG $$$ Grudge Racing as well as Bracket Racing.So we all to well know the deal on trying to Sponsor a race!
I'm a Bracket Racer been one for a long time and I know how they Think & Race.Put on a Big $$$ Bracket Race(for all brands) you will have over 200 cars Pre Entered(remember that Pre Entered)in a Heart-Beat!
BUT put on a Heads Up,Class,street car race as well and pay the same amount of $$$ to win,its not gonna happen!Don't ask us Bracket Racers to race in a 200+ car field for the same Purse,as the other class's that will be Lucky to have 10-12 cars in each class.That is not a smart A** answer just trying to help you,because you are in a position being at Indy to possibly help us get Indy to build us better parts,and I think you are trying to Help out a Dying Breed of Mopars!I have been a Mopar man from day one and will always be one!

So speaking with advice from my partners who have tried something like this an My Bracket Racing and seeing how other Big $$$ races are run my Advice to you is Have A Pre Entry for each CLASS,and a Dead line,if you don't get enough Pre Entered cars to run that class you can cut it an Refund the $$$ for that class.If not enough Total Cars to do the Show you can Cancel the Show!Its better to lose a little $$$ in Postage refunding their $$$ than to lose your Butt going ahead with the show.

Now Mr Indy man,I would like to ask something of you.I have been a Mopar racer since Ken used to come down to a little Mopar shop in Norcross Ga with Herb to Dyno their Mopar engines,I am pretty sure I brought a set of the 1st 100 440-1 Indy heads made,and have been running and telling anyone who would listen since to run Indy products.Anyone on this site will tell you I have been the one to stand up against all the Indy nay sayers on here and call them out to Race against my Indy powered Mopar car!I have never asked Indy for anything before,but do you think you could get Indy to maybe give a Die Hard Indy Racer one of them new 655 cu in T/D type engines?
