Gator"DIRT"Nationals Montpelier rules?
 

Looking to get the best car count for the 4th Annual Gator"DIRT"Nationals

Thinking about Montpelier rules over strictly D-2. Year 1 was $500-$1000-$1500 to win had 27 cars,,,Year 2 was $1000-$1000-$3000 to win had 19 cars....Last year was 2 $1000 to win features on Fri. night and $5000 to win National with only 26 cars....plus a lot of contingency awards and a $500 to win Race of Champions....my track owners want to know why we can't get anymore cars...Do you have an answer? We have guaranteed tow money $125 per event and $300 to start National race and $175 to start other races...

Question is: What can I do to get you guys to come down or is it time to throw in the towel?:47:

So you're going to allow the national engines for this event?

ABSOLUTELY thinking about it Chris...just putting feelers out there to see what we can do to keep this event going....we can not do it without CAR COUNT!! Would love nothing more than to keep it as the best paying event in the world for D-2 racing only, but again I have to do what is best for this STAND ALONE event

Do you dates yet?

Feb. working on 2 dates...Date one would be same as last year with the World of Outlaw Latemodels at Screven/Gamecock Speedway Winter Freeze VIII. Feb. 9-10 or Feb. 9-10 at a different track with Non Wing Un-Sanction Sprint Car event at another track paying $3000-$4000 to win with Midgets paying 2 $1000 features on Feb. 9th and $3000 on Sat. + $1000 Race Of Champions

No way I'm goin (unless I get like a $3000 sponsor...lol) & I don't have a "national" engine anyway, but if you are going to allow them, why not simply put intake restrictors in???

Re: Gator"DIRT"Nationals Montpelier rules?
 

Would the Nationals midget be good with a "HARDER" rear tire rule to help equalize competition and tire pressure?

JD. .....Johnny Murdock came down here last year and spent $480 total expense and took home in purse $$ over $4 grand with 2 cars + what ever he got for his rental.... as far as restrictions I will not be responsible for guys possible burning up engines with those....we can slow them down with rear tires and tire pressures ...but than you said it "You are not coming"...kind why I put this post out there...To get more cars...and I am only looking at allowing "National Engines" NOTHING, I MEAN NOTHING on black and white

I'd bring 2 cars if "national" midgets were allowed.

On that size track.. A national midget might be overpowered and not an issue
