After looking at the schedule we have decided to reschedule the 50 lap Modified Mini Stock race for 3/5/11. This will be a NO ENTRY FEE 50 lap race. Cars will qualify and be inverted by the roll of our foam dice, 2-6 rows max. We will allow Hoosier and American Racer 13" slicks to run. There will be practice on Thursday night 3/3,from 5-8.

not really complaining but since the 5th is the last mod-mini race until after the fair and also the last race before switching to the new ribbed hoosier , wouldnt it be more sensible to schedual this 50 lapper say on may 7th ? buying 2 sets of tires in two races is too expensive . i personally cant see buying any tires at this time when we have to change in two races . or is there a problem or further delay in getting the new ribbed tires ? or are we going to stay with the slicks ?
Because of the rain out of the original 50 lap race, there are a lot of drivers with new slicks they just purchased last week. Many of them were planning on running the 50 lapper and the two 20 lap races we had before the fair. This would have worn them out, and they would be ready for a new set after the fair anyway. But because of the rain, they will not get all of the life out of them. So we will allow the 13" Hoosier slicks to run after the fair break for a 75lb weight penalty until May 7th. After the May 7th night, you will only be able to run the new treaded Hoosier tire. No new slicks will be sold after the 3/5 race.
thanks for the quick response ! sounds like a reasonable plan for all involved . will have to pass on the 50 lapper though , my american racers dont have enough life left to be competitive with the hoosiers and it wouldnt be smart or safe to push them that far . we will just start our season after the fair . practice laps till then . thanks again !!!
