This is going to be a top notch race!

This event is going to be like nothing else! Check out pictures of the venue at www.hotshotsfun.com.

Huge indoor open sided arena, indoor pitting, power, and tons of parking! Phenomenal racing sight and what will be the perfect racing surface!

Big money and big prizes to be given away!

You might need to come up with some rules about classifications of running Sportsman so you won't have the same thing that happed at the S.I.C. happen at your race. That was the first race I ever been to that the Sportsman had Sponsor Sheets. I suggest no announcing the sponsors in the A-Main of Sportsman. I'm not hating on the people that has them but if you want to get them reconized run the Pro classes.

There will be some things that will be done a little different at this event. Being that we have been to many different tracks and seen the different formats we see the pros and cons to the different ways of doing things...... For example: The way you start the qualifying, loop placement, the arrangement of the qualifiers and the mains, etc.

BTW, we will be using the live loop method to start the qualifiers.

We have our event logo almost completed, and are currently working on all of the information for the website. It should be up real soon.

We are working on ALOT of different things for this event. SOME that will be announced soon.

We WILL be watching the sportsman class very closely! For instance if anyone notices a pro-level driver running sportsman class please bring that to our attention. With that being said if the top one or two is running pro speeds I would look for them to get bumped up after the first round of qualifying.

This race is going to be extremely fun, fair, fast as well as racer friendly.
