However, I relish in the thought of other Racing Series on Special Events from time to time at HMP. The TALMS Sport Mods, The old ASA series that would come once or twice back in the Day. I know that a 100 lap Super Late Model weekend event would go over pretty good. The Sprint cars on a tight 3/8 mile high-banked Asphalt race track, HMP has no safer barriers …. those Concrete walls ARE NOT Forgiving and are very Hard....The catch fences are not High enough either..... HMP is a perfect Stock Car race track....A 30 car / 200 lap Sports Mod race would pretty good racing event for HMP to Host. Maybe a 300 lap Bomber "Enduro Race" may be pretty good as well too....with pit stops on a real pit -lane...Hummm…. A Super Late Model race event could be good as well !!! We will see how things go....

.

Well I see that "Pouty", Whoops …, I mean..... "Rowdy" & JGR pulled it off.... Much rather to have seen Kevin, Denny, or Martin get the prize....They are better at being Class Acts....

Thanks "Bobby" for the pic's link (4T4 racing)....much appreciated for sure !!!! (Yep, The Writing is on the Wall !!!)

Who did HMP Speedfest Pic's ????

Hey Rodney.....You left out Legacy Driver "Del Harris" as one of the returning racers back to racing again at HMP...Del is a great long time Pro-Stock driver at HMP back in the early days & a L/S Legacy Series driver at CTS in recent years. Good to see All of them back in the drivers seat once again....

Ahhh… Progress !!!! that's what I personally have been waiting to hear for a long time now. Yes, thanks For John & Brian of bringing their cars out to show off of what these Original HMP Pro-Stocks/ Street Stocks are capable of Doing. These cars were Born to race at that beautiful 3/8 mile High-Banked race track, They were and still are a Natural at HMP....Yes, again very much so....These Cars deserve a chance to race at HMP again. They were a Fan Favorite at HMP, Fun to drive, Cheap to Produce & Operate.... So great to see that some very important Ground Work has been laid out for Progress for the Pro-Stocks/ Street Stocks. AS Rodney pointed out, Yes the Super Stocks and the Pro-Stocks ARE two different car classes. They are built different, & driven different....and of coarse COST different as well.... Well again, Thanks to John & Brian for coming out to strut the Pro-Stock stuff once again. Hopefully this can pave the road for an Independent Street Stock/ Pro- Stock class of returning to our Home ….HMP very, very soon !!! Thanks for your time LSSZ members....

Agreed, Will Do !!!

Well it would be very nice to hear the Final out come, or Direction, or the Determination of what Cross Over Class that will be added or not added at our Local Speedway. This information really could be helpful to the Racers that are concerned here that may be impacted by any changes or not, One Way Or The Other !!!! A Follow up or Updates to any changes would be very welcome!!!

Yah....I Feel ya !!! on that note.....If my memory serves me correctly....I am thinking That I remember a Big "Red" Monte Carlo, A few Big Impalas or two, Even maybe a Big Olds Cutlass.....that fit in quite nicely and were pretty Darn Racy & Competitive I must say .....Hummm ??? Did not matter, It's ALL Good !!!! Please, Bring E'm Back.... Sort of like a "Throw Back" to the Hay-Days of Racing !!!!

The "Street Stocks" are one of the Most Entertaining & Economical Short Track Racing Divisions at Race Tracks across America !!!! Including HMP in the recent past (I/E : Pro-Stocks)....Please Lets find a way to bring this Fan & Racer Favorite racing division back to our local Houston area Asphalt Short Track...... Even with just with Alternating race dates if or as needed..... Please !!!!! ( That's number one on my Christmas "WISH LIST" for sure !!!!!) Thank You LSSZ, for your time... - Metroracer -

Yes you are very Right - Spanked !!!! is putting it nicely !!!! Right again, I would much rather race my car there again my self. But I just down right refuse to race with that "Exclusive Club Members Only - Super Stocks".....So I have chosen to try sell my entire race team if I can Soon !!!! Every Racer wants a fair & equal chance to Win if he can, But not to only finish Near Last or Last every race. Race Tracks must try to strive to insure a Safe, But a Level Playing Field as well with the racing classes. I have a race ready race car, a race ready race driver.....But Not a Race Ready Home Race Track to Race at. Scotty9 is right, Racing is Fun.....But not so much Fun when you come in last all of the time when I am racing a "Super Stock" racing up against (Limited Late Models) I'm with you Scotty, I would like to race there again.....But time is running out real soon!!! any one can't say that we did try very hard and we were very nice about it also..... thanks for your time LSSZ...

71 cars counts...yes, a little better ! but still needs improvement though !!! A work in Progress....

* Eco Stocks = # 2 Doug Gibson * NASKARTS = # 23 Corey O'Donnell * Legacy's = #23 Peyton Mitchell * Outlaws = # 96 Greg Davidson * Pro-Mods = #5 Jake Kruger * Pro-Trucks = #9 Logan Boyett * Super Stocks = #8 Brandon Gaither Full Race results listed on "speedhive.com'

Good Point... However a Normal Full Card of classes are posted to be in competition this weekend at HMP....( exception : Less the Dwarfs...)

" FYI" >>>> IF <<<<< TSTRS was to bring the "Factory Stocks" to HMP as a Dirt Crossover add in class..... The Factory Stock Rules that they are "THINKING" of are listed below..... Notice ….that these Rules are the "Ark-La-Tex" Northern Texas & Northern Louisiana area Factory Stocks... A Cut above than most South Texas area Pure Stocks that think they are Factory Stocks.... Just giving Teams a heads-up on what may be coming..... Take note to the .447 lift cam rule.....& Body requirements... However, I am sticking FIRMLY with my vote for the Street Stock / Pro-Stocks and to Grandfather the Supers into the Outlaws... thanks.... 2019 FACTORY STOCK RULES.pdf factory stock body diagram.pdf

No Crossovers needed, return the Pro-Stocks / Street Stocks to the fold and tweak the SS to fit in with the Outlaws. thanks....

Yes I agree with Chipperd93.... Grandfather in the Supers with Outlaws, Restore the Pro-Stock / Street Stock Division, and may be rotate the Factory's with the Eco's or Legacy's sometimes.... Thanks...

Yes very much so, more like this car please !!!!
