Yah ...   HMP uses the "MyLaps"  Timming  System,  Where the Factory Stocks use mostly a "Westhold" Type of Timming System.

Just Means,  The Factory Stocks are not Timed Correctly with a Correct Finishing Results & Car Counts with out using the Correct Transponders that the Track Uses....

The Correct Finishing Results Readout are Very Important for the Racers & Fans to follow the Sport....

OK No Reply to my question....  = "Not Going to Happen..."   Ok Thank You !!!

Yah....  I raced at Hwy-16 Raceway some in 1980 & 1981 after Meyer Speedway Closed in 1979 in Houston.   I loved racing there for sure.  Great Racers to race with.

The San Antonio area Does Need a real Good Modern Paved Oval Track For sure.....

I guess that is all but a Pipe Dream at best now.....

Hwy-16 / SAS was good to me for sure......  I loved that Place.....

Transmission and shifter sold. Will make someone a good deal on clutch  bearing and bell housing. Call for price 

I could use the Bell Housing Only.....   Will you separate?   I live in Houston....

Well the Finish of the Rain Delayed Daytona 500 was Pretty Dramatic at Best !!!!  Some times the "Bump & Run" works pretty good,  But also it Go's Real Badly like in this case...

Congratulations to William Byron indeed....

You would think some of the best drivers around would have learned by now bumping in the turns at Daytona is not going to have a good result.

 

Right....   "You would Think So...",   But in this case I think that there was a Rookie Wildly Wiggling Around pretty Much bumping / pushing cars.   That takes Skill.   Bump Drafting & Side Drafting is a very useful old school tactic to get runs on the other line of cars so to speak.    (But With Skill....)

 It is very fun to watch, if it is executed PROPERLY.... To avoid "The Big One...."

Another High Drama Racing Event on the High Banks of Daytona Int. Speedway.....

Lots of Great Racing.... , the Big One, Drivers Making the Playoffs & Others Not Making the Playoffs,  Race Cars Barrel-Rolling, & Lots, Lots of Cars torn up all most as Usual !!!

& YIPPI....  Harvick Makes the Playoffs....  Wallace is in, But Elliot is Out....

Good Race, But Typical Daytona Bump Drafting Incidents as usual....

  THE  7 car has not race all season  ..the owner has been doing some other things . needed done  .. . .but the timing  of  this race  fits right in .. just freshened the motor up today  ,first time working on  this car sense last season .. .. being  old  paved  racers   we are excited for the first time this year to put the car on the track  .... .. . jessie  and i talked about  setting the car up for houston  .. i think we have what we need   ... least  of all it would be fun  to burn some rubber   see some heat built up on those slicks  that helps the tires stick .. heating them up  on dirt isnt all that great when dirt is going  stick  to them . 

that's All Good Mr. Mike....   But I sure would check with Mr. Owen to see if they are going to Allow those 10" F-45 Hoosiers,  HMP runs 8" American Racer Asphalt Slicks.....   I don't know,  But I sure would check that out before I made the Trip.   Better to be safe than sorry...  Hope info helps...

Where do you find out this information?

 

 

on the HMP F/B page Sir....  Hope info Helps!

As Member Hi-Tech had Predicted a while back that the New HMP Promoter "Will" bring in the Factory Stocks to compete at HMP sooner or later.....

I personally "Scoffed at", "Dreaded", & "Totally Dis-Agree With"  that Idea at best...

But I am seeing now that HMP is Pursuing that Deal, and is Formally giving a shout out & a welcome For Factory Stocks to come and compete at the next race at HMP September 23....

I don't know if that will be a one off type of race, or to be a Regular racing class there at HMP in the future....

I guess time will tell....

Some of the Seens at Meyer Speedway in 1979,  The Track Closed for ever shortly after these Pic's were taken in the Summer of that Year.

Great Times,  Great Racers & Dedicated Racing Fans,  Great Track Owner & Promoter......

The Opening of Big-H Speedway in 1978 was some what some of the Issues leading the Closing.    

Thanks for Looking....
