texana55 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Posted September 29, 2010 On the Rio Grand Speedway (RGS) tab of LSSZ forums, I read that Rio Grande Speedway has their annual Limited Modified event Nov 11 - 13, and the post stated there was discussion about adding a support class. I decided to do some research... This afternoon I was able to talk with Johnny Johnson (RGS) promoter. He had not actually thought about adding a support class, but was interested in the discussion and the potential of doing such. I discussed how he might feel about adding the fender class and we discussed STS Pures, I37 Streets, RGS Pures, and SOS / Texana Streets running together with home rules. As we all know we are not all perfectly in sync, but as we also know there are give and take and we all come out pretty equal. Johnny asked for me to gauge the interest for car count on this, so he can determine if it is worth pursuing. Understandably it won't be worth pursuing further for them unless there is some real interest. For us (CK Racing), we were going to run the Texas Grand that weekend, but if this opportunity was available, we'd run at RGS instead. The purse would have to be built based on a determination of anticipated car count and then tied to actual car count. Johnny asked that I call him back next week and give him an estimate on serious interest. This would be real fun for all our classes to get to run together at a special event. So, if you would be seriously interested in running your I37 Street with the RGS Pures on Nov 12/13, post on this thread by next Wednesday (10/6/10) so I can call Johnny back and give him a gauge on interest. Ck Racing #55, one of the Chamberlain drivers - yes seriously interested Quote
Jones41 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Posted September 29, 2010 Is it a sure thing i37 streets can run their Home track rules? I have to see what's going on that weekend but count us in If were allowed to run i37 rules. Quote

I have to see what's going on that weekend but count us in If were allowed to run i37 rules. Nothing in stone yet Wade. Not sure if Johnny will be able to add them at all, but I did have a good phone conversation with him and he wanted to gauge the interest. We did talk specifically about the Texana/SOS streets, STS Pures, and I37 Streets on this. It will all be his to decide based on the level of interest shown. Thx - Monty Quote
