Default Any Interest in Texas Shootout

Me and a buddy were thinking of trying to get a Texas Shootout together at HMP (1/8 mile track).

We were wondering if there would be any interest in it, and would like to see what kind of cars would be willing to come. If we get a good enough reply for yes, we will get busy in trying to come up with classes and everything.

Pine Valley Raceway in Lufkin is a nice little track. Its a pretty good split between here and dallas and still not to far for the san antonio area guys. Are we talking about a LTX and LSX only race or???

that is the one right there in Diboll right? We drive through there all the time going to the deer lease.

LTX/LSX would fun to have, we are open to any suggestions. Is it a 1/4 or 1/8 mile track?

maybe come up with some classes based on et's. do you think keeping it 1/8 mile would keep anyone from wanting to run?

SAR? Depends on when this happens, we might be up for it if it doesn't conflict with our TTT5 racing schedule.
