Unfortunately, the special TRIPLE CROWN/WINCHESTER SPEEDWAY qualifying Speed Trial Shoot Out planned to be by and between the AVBBSS, HOSS and MSRXSS Sprint cars series has been canceled. The invited series did not respond to multiple invitations and the challenge to determine the WORLD’S FASTEST SHORT TRACK CARS”.
Must See Racing "American Racing Tires" www.mustseeracing.com AVBBSS Auto Value "Hoosier Tires" http://www.supersprints.com/ Hoss "Hoosier Tires" http://www.hossracing.com/ There was alot of talk about how fast the Hoosier Tires are compared to the American Racing Tires. Some people stated that the Hoosiers were at least a full second faster if not more. Must See Racing Teams on ART hold about every track record. Salem, Bristol, Winchester, IRP, Shangri La, Rockford, Slinger, Wisconsin Dells, Oswego, Anderson, Kalamazoo, Five Flags (Pensacola, Florida), Mobile Speedway etc. Last year MSRXSS champion Jojo Helberg of Rohnert Park, California set a new Winchester and World ˝ Mile record turning a jaw dropping lap of 12.669 So when it came time for Showtime, AVBBSS and Hoss Defaulted!

I am sorry to see the others declined this offer. But, the show must go on and we are eagerly waiting for Must See to return to Winchester. Gonna be a great weekend up there. I really like the idea of a meet & greet cookout for fans. I know Must See has some naysayers, but I see them working real hard to build upon what they have in place. They are on the right track and the racing is awesome. They get the supermodified end of things up & running right watch out. I lay asphalt for a living & thats how I like my racing, on the blacktop. Must See is the best asphalt sprint racing going. Thanks to the Wilshe's for their tireless effort to improve their series.

It's like the guy who tries to pick a fight in a bar with someone minding his own business, then walking out talking about how you would have whipped his butt. You aren't any tougher just because the guy ignored your trash talking. Run your series however you wish. It's your business and by all appearances your approach has worked well. What do I know. I don't have a horse in this race. Probably should have just kept my mouth shut.

High 12 second bracket but Eldora is not a half mile track as advertised. I am thinking 12.6 or 12.7 is their record.

Why not have a pavement sprint car race with an open tire rule? Wait, there is one The Little 500. What happens when American Race Tire has to compete with Hoosier? The American Race Tire dealer goes home early with zero cars in the field. American Race Tire took a shot at dirt racing last fall and got run out of Knoxville and Williams Grove after 10 laps, better luck next time.

I don't know how you could compare the 2, Sammy's 13.8 was over a decade ago. And the other series probably don't want to bother with the shootout because there will be a dozen people in the stands.
