Thumbs down Texas Race = might be cancelled soon...

Guys, we aren't seeing the support we require for this final event to happen. The race is scheduled for Sat, Nov 12th at San Antonio Raceway.

We have only received 16 prepaid entries so far ($25 each).
We have had two 'interested' Title Sponsors change their mind on us. ($2500)
We have not received a class co-sponsor for Pro-Mod ($1000)

There was a huge response of interested people that said they would come race at this event, since the Thunder Shootout was cancelled. We are not seeing evidence of this yet.

The race will most likely be cancelled this Saturday, unless one of two things happen:

1. receive 50 prepaid entries
-or-
2. secure a Title Sponsor

To any interested Sponsors, this event will be covered by GM High Tech Performance magazine, and we typically get 4-6 pages of coverage. The event will be named after your shop/company. Sponsors are NOT required to provide any staff or do any event organizing. We handle all of that for you. We need to know something by this Friday.

Here is the link to the event forum: https://ls1tech.com/forums/southwest-showdown-hosted-ls1tech-com-106/

Thanks,
Tony

Sadly, the demise of these races is inevitable. Too narrow of a market. JMHO.
