gone with the win Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Just a suggestion/ Idea.. IMCA has a series that runs on sundays across. This year is it currently 11 night. It would be nice to see all the north Texas cars run against our "the local boys" at I-37. Who thinks this its a good idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sm44 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Frank, Saturday and Sunday in abilleen count, I don't think they will run at 37 because of I stock and hobby stock, I'm planning on running it as well in the mods though.

buckborlace Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 it would be a neat deal and there is a couple of tracks that are just running the two mod classes can you see 30 oe so mods here yea would be fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone with the win Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Frank, Your right there is only 9 Races, and What i meant was suggesting I-37 Raceway getting a race date on the Lone Star Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97car Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I think it could be done Frank got the I stocks and sport mods here when we had neither class. I know they were early or late season races though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelracewriter Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Would it be nice.....Sure, it would be great.... The reality is though it won't happen... In order to NOT conflict with regular track points/races it would have to run on Sunday(which is why the original schedule got revised) or early/late in season.... Sunday would be a travel issue for all the other track's teams that are 4 and MORE hours away....Granted our guys do it, but that's only a handful of guys vs. an entirety of the field....You'd get a few points chasers at best.....As I recall the other tracks make these a track points race also to ensue locals participation....Someone mentioned no I-Stocks or Hobbys already.....This means no base cars to even begin to draw from... Early in the season several of the north tracks already have established shows starting in Feb. and points starting in March, so it would have to be before those.....Then you run into the number of guys that have their cars ready, unpredictable weather, etc... Late in the year wouldn't go over either...If you noticed none of the races are scheduled after IMCA points season ends... Not trying to be a negative Nelly....Just pointing out the reality/facts.... The ONLY way this would ever happen is if more south Texas jumped on board with IMCA sanctioning, and added the I-Stocks and Hobbys, to make sure the area was able to have a successful show, with minimal participation from north Texas teams.......and we all know that probably isn't going to happen....

rebelracewriter Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I think it could be done Frank got the I stocks and sport mods here when we had neither class. Actually it was the I-Stocks and Hobbys, not Sportmods....and it was a full winter series run starting in Jan. before any other races were scheduled....The biggest thing was back then the IMCA points calculations were far different without a max. number of races....Since I was at most of those shows very few guys from north Texas tracks attended, except in Hobby Stocks.... Central Texas guys like Henry Witt(National points chaser) and the three Egbert boys(rookie points chasers) were the most consistent attendees, for the obvious reasons....

sm44 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Buck is correct, the last two races are at 85 speedway and Gcs and are only the mod classes, I still don't think they would do it because of the distance. The problem with running late in the season is once the top 10 has been established you wont get all the cars. We started out with 40 cars in the early races and by the last race had 26 or so...
