Pre entered #7 mini sprint but disappointed in only 13 mini sprints registered to date.

What is the issue with such low pre entry count?

Possibly AMSA weights and fuel rules?

Just my concern over such a great opportunity to race at the Shoot Out and not have a good car count.

The Rumble Series canncelled their 1000cc race activity so as not to reduce the Tulsa car count.

The other scheduled classes are very active with 40-50 pre entries per class.

I am disappointed after entering and making hotel and travel plans.

As far as from this area, most of them won't travel. Can't say as for anywhere else.

Well, it's not real easy for a lot of people to pack up over the holidays and head off to race. Not to mention the cost involved, especially right after Christmas. Most of the folks that race this class have jobs. They are, for the most part, older than what you find in the 600 classes.

In that area of the country there are a heck of a lot more cars in the other classes than the 1200cc, so I am not surprised there are many more of those cars registered. Plus, many of those cars can run mutilple classes.....I see duplicate names registered on a number of them.

We plan on going......and I know Scott Fosse is as well. It's only early November. You have until 12/1 before the cost goes up. Maybe people are looking at their schedules and the other things they may have going on before they make the commitment to attend.

I entered austin archdale two weeks ago, maybe they just havn"t updated recently.Can't wait for this race and looking forward to getting back to Duquoin.

Could be.....I signed up TJ three days ago and he is not on the list yet either.

Looking forward to it. Where is everyone staying? We will be at the Radisson.

I am sure more Mini Sprints will enter Tulsa Shootout. My son is looking for sponsers for the shootout.

Anyone interested in renting a Mini Sprint for the show I know of two for rent $3000 for the show.Just bring your helmet and racing safety equipment. You break it you pay for fixin!

Looks like there are now 16 cars signed up. It took about a week for our entry to show up on the website.
