MMSA at Bloomington & Twin Cities

Bill May · 5/5/10, 7:23 PM

Goth23, NO, you will not be allowed to race the same car with the MMSA and the midgets, per-the above message, I'm not sure what's going on here, But, Let me say this to all the mini sprint racers, The Fleetwoods have provided the MMSA with the most race dates over the past 3 years of any track, we need to continue to support them by providing a 20 car field for the MMSA "A" main, For future stability you need to support the MMSA at this race.

Bill, don't take this wrong, but I think what you're getting to here, is the Midgets will run their show, the Mini's will run their show, and the Sprints will run their show, and the other divisions will run their shows. I don't have a dog in this fight, but do in another, and I know that the midget guys were OK with the mini's running with them, or at least they indicated they were, for car count, but my feelings are that in the long run, it would be better to run them in their own classes only, I think down the road, it will make both divisions stronger, the midget guys will feel better, as their numbers grow, and that could encourage more to pull in for a show like this. JMHO, but I felt it needed to be said. Good luck! Bob

What engine do you have?

ZX-10

If you get me close that would be a big help. I have been looking at google earth and have a good ideal but I just want to see how close I am. I think GSXR motors have about the same gear ratio.

Thanks. Q

Bill, don't worry about what other people say. As a mini sprint owner and driver I DO have a dog in this fight and think you're doing a great job. Keep it up.

What is the normal pay? Or is it on your website?

$35 for a pit pass at Twin Cities????? That's more than L-Burg on a USAC night.

15-50 should be close for Bloomington and around 2 teath less for Vernon QUOTE=Quantrill;168174]ZX-10

Ryans right on, I'm pretty sure GSXR's are one tooth less than r1 on the back. ie if you run a 52 on R1 it would be a 51 on the Suzuki. Not sure on the zx10s...
