Since they are almost the same car and the have no dirt races that I could find planed for this year. And since there races are not in conflict with MMSA races it would be neat if MMSA waved their motor rule because of their rear end and allowed them to race with us.
We could probably scrape up a enough used tires for them to borrow to keep their cost down. It would be great to get both groups together and racing and to be honest I would like to run a some asphalt shows also.
Kenyon cars would also make a great platform to put our motors in.
I guess the real question is are their any Kenyon racers interested in running some dirt races? And would the 1000 cc racers allow them to race with them?

Hey Dad...how's things been going....we have the same thing here in Fl. with my rules and if you run a quick change you are allowed up to a 1352cc MOTORCYCLE engine and will fall in the criteria of what Mel has going on...Bill and I spoke over the winter about this and this will allow TQ's and converted midgets..Mel and I have spoken several occasion and he is all for it...the difference in weight and lost of HP going through the driveline will equal out...now my series is strictly a non wing so it works out and we are strictly stock engines.....Bill's a very smart man and has it going on but then Jerry Taegue's group is good also.....maybe the good lord will see fit that somehow they could work together but then I have the same issue down here and it is not easy...Don (Kenyon) told me back in Dec. that they where going to try to have some dirt races this year and would try to get a group to come to Florida Feb.2013
