SPONSORS/MARKETING NEWS: We are working hard at securing some new partners and maintaining many of existing sponsors for 2011. We've had a few racers adding event specific cash incentives and 'grudge race' offers for fellow racers. Details to be announced.

CLASS NEWS: We are hosting 3 classes for 2011; our original 8.90 index, a 10.50 index and an OUTLAW LIMITED STREET Class (Milan's OLS Rules, 1/8 mile)

RACE SCHEDULE NEWS: We should have a schedule from Thompson Raceway in "about a week".

WINTER GET TOGETHER: We are organizing a date, once a date is selected we'll need a head count for attendance.

T-SHIRTS/STICKERS: We have a silk screener for t-shirts in-place, we're waiting for a possible sponsors additions. Stickers - nothing new.

On the OLS class I think you need to change the DR size from 315 and smaller to 325 and smaller. There are some guys who cant fit a 30" tire like the 315/60R15 and run the 325/50R15. It is a lesser tire and will avoid some confusion I have seen at other events this year. Case in point I have a friend with a vette and he cant fit the 30" tire so he runs the 28" tall 325. There are no 30" tall drag radials wider than the 315 that are worth a shit. Just want to get the biggest car count for the new class. I also may run in the OLS to help get it kicked off. If we can adapt the tire change I would bet my buddy would bring his vette also.

Ray, the 325/50r is accepted in this class. The 315/60r is the largest diameter radial accepted. sorry for the confusion.

We are trying to make a home for the displaced radial guys and the milan rules posted make the most sense without making a 'radial only' class.

Hello,
New to this, have a few ?, the 10.50 index does this mean you can't run faster than 10.50? Also, how many races do you have per season? I have a low 10 second car I would like to run in your program. I live in Mich. about 4 hrs. away from Thompson Park and would'nt mind making the trip a few times. My car is a street car w/lites, turn sig/ and full int. Would this qualify in your 10.5 street? Can you send the rule book to me via email? Thanks for your time!

Jim

there is a benefit dinner and raffle for chris klink owner of ultratech race cars [and good friend] this saturday 5-9

american legion post 685

10001 hudson aurora rd
streetsboro oh 44241

chris was diagnosed with leukemia a couple of month's ago and he's currently undergoing an aggressive [and super expense] treatment path. I'm sure his medication costs per month currently are quickly draining his financial resources due to these massive medical expenses. Coupled with the fact chris is a single man [and sole bread winner in his household] that hasn't really been able to work since being diagnosed, times are tight for him.

ticket's can be purchased at the door for 20.00
