BigCarrot - bring your car and run all day for fun, or if you want to line up with someone, have them follow you up to race. Either way, it's gonna be a great event, just won't have any Viper only classes like the V-10 Nationals does.
Super Squirrel - this is the detail i posted on Supraforums. The only thing that does not apply to Viper is the dyno, which now will only be for Supras.
The TX2K – Supra Nationals series has been extremely successful for the past 6 years thanks to all of you! None of my work would matter if I didn’t have your support, thank you all for that. It’s about that time again for me; I’m working on lining up tracks, getting schedules worked out, paying deposits and making sure that things go smoothly again. The road racing will once again be at Texas World Speedway, the dyno at Hennessey Performance Engineering and the drag racing will be at San Antonio Raceway. I want to start off by giving all of you some facts about TX2K5 – Supra Nationals.
When: March 10-12, 2005 (Thursday – Saturday)
Why Thur – Sat: We have to do another Thursday – Saturday meet because the road racing will have to be on Thursday. If we chose to make the road racing on Friday we would have to pay an additional $2,000 for the track because Friday is considered a weekend day and therefore is charged per the weekend rate.
Where:
Road Racing – Texas World Speedway
Dyno – Hennessey Performance Engineering
Drag Racing – San Antonio Raceway
How Much:
Road Racing – $200 per driver
Dyno – $35 to dyno, first person to send me money gets the spot.
Drag Racing – $55 per car (keep in mind that $15 goes to SAR and $40 goes towards the payout). Spectators pay $15 to watch, all of which goes to SAR.
Road Racing - Thursday March 10, 2005– We will have approximately 50 spots to sell for the road racing portion of the event. The road racing will once again be at Texas World Speedway (
http://www.texasworldspeedway.com/) and you can see the configuration of the course at (
http://www.houston-bmwcca.com/driving/tws/twslap.html). Once all 50 spots are filled, we will not take any more entrants. Cost for the road racing will be $200. For this price you get 2 hours of track time at one of the best road courses in the nation. When you send payment please include whether you're racing in the advanced class (been to TWS before on more than one occasion OR you raced TWS last year and your instructor qualified you to run in the advanced class) or the beginner class (first time to TWS or you simply want an instructor to help you until you're comfortable to drive alone). Deadline for the road racing entry fee is February 1, 2005. I need to pay for the track as well as secure a sufficient number of instructors.
Dyno - Friday March 11, 2005– The dyno day will be at Hennessey Peformance Eng. This venue will be PERFECT as there is TONS of space to park cars, rigs, etc... I anticipate having room for 200 cars, 4-5 Titan sized haulers, as well as tons of space indoors. The dyno will be available to read up to 1500 rwhp and 1500 rwtq. We won't run out of dyno this year!!!!
We have 30 dyno spots. Of the 30, 14 spots are reserved for sponsors. That leaves 16 spots, they are all first come first serve. Please send $35 to secure your spot. I will post on this thread as soon as all the spots are taken. In addition, Autobanh Motorsports (an official sponsor of the dyno day) will be on hand to provide all of us C16, 109 unleaded, and 104 unleaded. In addition, Autobanh will be providing NOS refills!! Autobanh's prices will be VERY competitively priced on-site at the dyno day!
Drag Racing - Saturday March 12, 2005– The track day will be at San Antonio Raceway (
www.sanantonioraceway.com). We will be running the SAME classes that we always run during the drag racing day.
Class 1: Stock twins only.
Class 2: Single turbo OR stock twins with NOS.
UNLIMITED: This class will be limited to 16 cars (8 Supras and 8 Vipers/Vettes/Etc...).
6-Speed Challenge: this class will be for Supras only (8 cars maximum).
The thing that makes this event the biggest/best/baddest event in the country is the fact that we change every year to accomodate all of you. The biggest gripe last year was that we were hot lapping the cars. Well, this year, i've arranged to have the track for 12 hours 9 am to 9 pm. There will be NO hot lapping this year.
Group Dinner - Friday night, March 11, 2005 - Westside Tennis Club
Just like last year, the group dinner will be at Westside. The menu will be the same as last year and the cost will be the same as well. $20 gets you all you can eat buffet including tea/water. We will have a cash bar as well for alchohol.
Deadline for entry to the group dinner is February 1, 2005. Last year we had around 150 ppl attend the group dinner, let's break 200 this year!!!!!!!! At this event the attendees will have the opportunity to eat great food, watch good DVD's, and listen/ask questions to all the sponsors. Don't miss this event, it was a HUGE hit last year.
Sticker Sponsors - like last year we will have sticker sponsors. This year the main sticker sponsor will be MVP. You will get one MVP sticker on EACH SIDE of your car if you participate as well as a sticker for each individual event sponsor. We currently do not have a road racing sticker sponsor but we're working on it and I will update this thread when the spot is filled.
