Tell me this,lets say you live in an area where you have a track 1 hour south of you and 1 hour north of you, to run the one south of you, you would have to buy different tires, and you may get there and have the purse cut in half, the one north of you has the same rules and tires as you are used to, and a guaranteed purse, now, which track are you going to?again, you just have to give them a reason to come to your track.
Amen Brandon, even if they are not sanctioned by a series, please use the same rules as the series the track down the road will be santioned by.

I just hope they have some special Super shows in 2010. I understand with the economy the way it is, its hard to race them every week. As far as the other classes I think hobby, stock v8, owm, ss4 and extreme 4 would be the best for this area.

OWM will run for $500 to win 300, 250, 200, 150, 100. With the right rules this is a very affordable class. Buffalo Speedway is running them next year for this purse and all the mod guys are happy with that purse. Regular IMCA's at 2500 pounds and Sport mods at 2350. Both cars in one class. I can sell you a new sport mod chassis with all the brackets and mounts for $1250. Bolt all of your Stock8/Renegade parts on it and go racing. For more info call 864-380-3898.

Most owm would run for that. Maybe even $50 from 7th-?, and if you did a big race with them, charged an entry fee, we could even get more clothes. Be glad to help!!!!!

Everyone seems to forget road warrior, this class has a lot of potential if the rules were loosened up a little bit. Let us run tire stagger, let any driver run regardless of drivin experience. Put a vacuum rule in to check cams, keep everybody legal. Some of us can't afford to run the bigger classes. If these few rules were changed this class would explode just look at the turn out in screven; fifteen to twenty cars everytime I have raced there plus everybody wants to see the truck again at gordon park. Most of us drivers would race everytime the tracks open for 200 to win.
