    Drag Strip Rental Fall/Winter 2007

    HPS with other Sponsors will be having an drag strip rental next fall/winter.

    I will be putting the details together after the new year.

    I need ideas on what you would to do on that day?

    We are going to have some classes and make it a laid back race format.

    Ok here some questions to start with.

    1. Trophies or Cash payouts to winners?

    2. Classes of racing?

    i know cash is normally favorable, but since its just a day for fun and a good time, i say trophys. but if there was a good plan put up for a cash payout, i suppose one could not complain.

    as for classes, maybe do a s197 class, sn95 class, fox class. and then break it down by time brackets, like 11.49 and up and then a 11.49 and quicker? if we have enough cars in the class. obviously we want it to be fair and not be putting stock cars up against a fast single digit car like the psr car.

    I think the different classes would be fun and also some bracket racing for the trophies/cash. Of course I am the slow one of the group so...

    If its going to be a private rental I vote NO front wheel drive cars allowed. That way we wont have to worry about them dragging water down the track.

    There is no FFW 2007 in PHX so this will be the big Ford Event.

    I will be talking to both Tracks and will have a date and details firmed up in January 07.
