G-Man,
If there are enough entries - we will run it! If you can recruit enough drivers, we are good to go! This goes for any class. Typically, we will review once we have a bunch of pre-entries and make up our minds which classes stick, and which are deleted. There is only so much time in the day - and I think we are up to 17 classes! We need to get that down to 10 or so... but Road-Course has as much clout as Oval... no favorites! lol
Good luck!

Exclamation Road Course portion of the Nat's moving up 1 week!

Due to a date conflict with the Gate, the Road Course portion will be moved up 1 week to April 21st!

Road Course only on April 21st.
Same prices, see header of this thread or SCH website for updates.

Oval continues on schedule.

Just FYI - as mentioned before, keep posted to www.steelcityhobbies.com for the latest updated information. Some have asked about the entry form as you can find it on the SCH site.
For oval: http://www.steelcityhobbies.com/PDFs/SCN07OvalFlier.pdf
For on-Road - use the same but make notations - not sure where our form went too!
Good luck!

Post On-Road UPDATE

This weekend regular racing for both On-Road and Oval.

We are not going to run Road-Course at this years Steel City Nationals.

We can run a dedicated race this summer for Road-Course if the demand is there!

Thanks!
