did they also happen to announce that the curfew was lifted? so highland plans to run 6 or 7 classes each night? i hope it works out
i dont understand where the philosophy became to have 5-7 classes of 10 to 15 cars instead of having 3 or 4 classes tops of 20-30 cars. more cars going on the trailer each night would be more profit for the promoters, and fewer classes would, in theory, allow the tracks to pay each division a little more $. and it would also promote better racing and a quicker night of racing.
I think they're a joke! Just a money making idea for Mr. Pierce. They aren't affordable if you wanna keep your kid in front. Where did all the racers of today and yesteryear start? They didn't have some kiddy class to start in. 4 showed at I-55, 2 weren't bad and the other 2(lower dollar) ones couldn't stay on the same straight away. The winner had a big AFCO down the side. Just another class that's easy to out dollar your competitor if daddy has big bucks. I thought karts, quarter midgets were where kids should start if you wanna get them in it early. There isn't a thing wrong with street stocks either. I think beyond a shadow of a doubt hornets are more entertaining than these things. No not many fans will say hornets are their favorite, but they help pay the bills so tracks can have their favorite higher paying classes.
First of all not affordable?? What class in racing is affordable? You can buy a used race ready car for somewhere between $3500-$5000.By the way you can't buy a good quarter midget or kart for that price. The show at Pevely was not the greatest because of how big the track is. If you put them on a shorter track the kids put on a pretty good show. Also pretty sure that there are low dollar cars that can't stay on the same straight in every class. The only thing you can do to maybe get ahead of the competition is work on the motor or you can go to a junkyard and take a 2.3 out of pinto if you'd like. You gain more by gear then you do by spending money having a motor built. If you read the rules on the kid mod website you have to kid mod stamped shocks which are checked. Therefore there is no benefit there. As for AFCO real big down the side of the car that won at pevely, Afco is another major sponsor of the series (hince its called THE AFCO KIDS MODZ RACING SERIES) that was the series car and those people bought it used and left the body on it. As far as the hornets help paying the higher class purses, what do you think these kid mods are doing? Do you know what the kids mods pays to win the feature???? NOTHING!!!! The track doesn't even buy a trophy, Pierce provides them. So you know what that means? That class is pure profit for the track, all they have to do is give them about 20-25 mintues and 16 laps. As far as fordman goes, this is not a UMP sanctioned class. UMP is kind enough to let kid modz have their banquet with the UMP banquet to make it a little cooler for the kids! Finally these are not the reason sportsmen got dumped, and the SPORTMOD/B-MOD class replaced them! Now I'm sure your still saying it's a joke but whatever, fact is your probably jealous you never got the chance to do what these kids get to do. One thing that was left out jrip is that yes Highland is the home track, however they do not start the kid mods till April 7th and they are every other week. Your looking at about 12 nights at Highland. I don't think that is to much to ask for.
