1. our 2 day event should be sort of a season end event. with all the carpet time we are going to gat this winter, the racing (in my opinion) will be most competitve at the end of the year.

2. very few of us are planning on hitting any out of town races except for omaha.

3. the best chance of getting some factory guys here (i have talked with x-ray, crc, and corrally) is to place the event before, but not too close to the carpet nats.

4. carpet nats will be the 3rd or 4th weekend of march. omaha will be the last weekend of feb.

5. although some of our guys are planning on hitting the omaha race, i really feel that our race should be the weekend after that event. this will give the factory guys (if we get any) a week or two off before nats, but will force our guys running omaha to run 2, 2 day races back to back. this may seem like alot of racing, but look at it this way......those who do go to omaha, will have plenty of wheel time to prep for the big one here.

just my opinion, what do you guys think.
SO if we can get Montana to move thier race to the week prior to Omaha, you could run three weekends and only take 2 weeks of vacation time!!

I could do this!!!
