I like the class/index ideas that have been spoken off.

Say somthing like a mix?

9.5/10.0/10.5/11.0/11.5 and Stock /w power addder/Stock w/o Adder/Nitrous/Blower/NA all out classes. We can have a seperate heads up.

Keep it coming guys, more ideas equals more things that will happen if it goes threw.

Tony.

I just got off the phone with a local guy who is in the process of purchasing English Mountain Dragway in Newport, Tennessee, he said if he has the track, he would gladly host the event for us ... only thing is, it is an 1/8th mile track, but he buying it to attract the ORSCA stock suspension guys. Just another possibility among all the others.

I agree with Ellis. But some of us would try to come! I vote for Wichita or someplace central like that with a good NHRA sanctioned track where the fast cars don't have to worry about a bumpy surface. I'd definitely be interested in a 10.50 class....keep us posted Tony.

PS I'll have my TA in Omaha next week.

KCIR is cheap to rent, in fact we already have it rented twice a year for our 'Midwest Shootout' that is put on by the Tosto Brothers.

Very nice. I hadn't seen that before.

P.S. my vote is for somewhere in Kansas as it it is central to just about everyone, except maybe Taner and Ellis.
