I have not posted in a looooong time, but figured this is worthy. We are having an event called Roadkill Nights on June 18 at Kansas Speedway. It's a car show and stuff, but we also have street-type drag racing on pit row! It's probably 500 feet, give or take, with minimal prep.
Dodge-powered Dodge cars are running for a big purse: $10,000 to win, $5,000 runner up, $2500 third, $1500 fourth.
Here's how it will work. Time trials all day, with no times posted. When it comes time to finals, the four quickest Dodges become the Quick 4. It's an unusual elimination format designed for lots of side-by-side races with the quickest cars. Every car will end up racing each of the other Quick 4 cars, so each car runs three times. 1 races 2, 3, and 4. 2 races 1, 3, and 4. 3 rces 1, 2, and 4. 4 races 1, 2, and 3. You get 5 points for winning a round and 3 points for losing. Points are added up to determine winners.
That's the nutshell. Full rules and registration will be posted here: roadkill.com/events

I would assume no...probably something to do with Dodge sponsoring Roadkill. I wasn't allowed to play with the Dodge's at the Silverdome event last year.
Hope it's a good turnout and brings some heads-up and grudge cars out of the woodwork!

It's only about an 8-hour drive for me to get there and I have some friends near there, so it sounds like a fun weekend trip. I plan to take the Charger, but it won't be very quick. I think I could lay down a 500' burnout though

Are plymouth's invited to play A Cash Purse totaling $750 will be awarded for Non-Dodge cars. 1st place – $500 2nd place – $250 No reason to step outside your door. Especially since they'll make a lot of coin just by you showing up.
When it takes more than a sweet mullet to prove you rule at the trailer park..

It seems pretty clear to me: "Dodge-powered Dodge cars are running for a big purse". It'a got to be all Dodge.
Thanks for posting it here, David!

Yes, it's Dodge only. And cars only, no trucks. All other makes and models are welcome to come race, but not in the Dodge showdown.

Well in my opinion that is an incredibly stupid idea......I mean what does dodge car only with a dodge engine differ from a Plymouth with a Chrysler engine???? A name tag only.......well I guess I won't show up since I don't understand the logic of a name tag only exclusion. Because PLYMOUTH doesn't exist anymore. DODGE is still building cars. If they allowed Plymouths and Chryslers, it couldn't be the Dodge challenge... it would be the Mopar challenge, Kind of hard to promote your product if a different nameplate wins..

Half the people out there probably don't even remember Plymouth anymore. But even if they did, racing Plymouths isn't going to help Dodge sell more cars.
