Tom... I will try to get over to the shop this weekend and get the results. Hopefully they printed them Tuesday.

Thanks, Brian

Awards to be given out based on turn out for the entire series…..
Example if a class averages 5-9 entries per race then there will be awards for the top 3…..if a class averages 10-19 entries there will be awards for the Top 5…..if a class averages 20+ entries per race then there will be awards for the Top 10 in points.

Points
Will be the standard format of 100, 99, 98 etc point system with 1 bonus point each race for the TQ of the class.
There will be 5 total races with 1 race(your lowest number) being your throw out
We will use the best 4 of the 5 races to count towards the overall point total with that throw out total being your tie breaker.

The only class these points will not be the same for will be for Trans AM…..This year the Hurricane All-Star Carpet Series will be run in conjunction with the USVTA Great Lakes Series. The USVTA GLS will have 7 total races with 5 races counting towards its point’s total. There will be two races in addition to the 5 regular Hurricane Series races ...1 additional race in November and 1 in January. The last USVTA GLS race will be the last All-Star Carpet Series race so awards will be handed out then. This also gives everyone in Trans AM an opportunity to make up a bad performance or a missed date at one of the additional races.

Rules and Dates are subject to change....

Good looking truck. I am sure it will race fast. If the Body starts to show fine scratch marks, use the "ClayBar". It is for automotive and can be found at Advance Auto Parts. It works great to polish a body, especially Black as the scratches show more.

I will most likely not be there this Tuesday. If someone would like to get there early and start watering I am sure it would be appreciated by all. Check with Buddy first and find out how much he wants it watered. Hopefully the on/off rain will give just enough water and give the water bill a rest.

Good luck to all this week.

Hey Luis said there was 10 sliders last tuesday! TEN! And I had to miss!

I'm also in favor of a points chase for the last part of the summer. Would also second a special Tuesday Night Race. Looking forward to Tuesday, got some things to try that should result in the Slider cornering better than it has been. We'll see. Thought about stopping by today (Saturday) and testing the idea but may not have the time.

If not, Tuesday will do. Bring on the Sliders!
