Wonder if they'd consider some sort of dual track points deal with Port & Selinsgrove? Although tt happens more frequently with modified tracks and may not be as beneficial to Port.
|
I think that would be a very good idea. Even run some fri-sat combo races. Endless possibilites.

If Selinsgrove does it that will hurt Port Royals car count. If BAPS Does it that will hurt Lincoln's car count. Most of the teams who don't run Williams Grove only want to or can only run one night a week. Anything could happen But from a business stand point. I don't see Port Royal intentionly hurting Williams Grove. Also if the Friday thing doesn't work out Selinsgrove would go back to being Satuday night compitition for Port Royal. I am not sure it is smart to help your compitition rise from the ashes in 410 racing. Most fans will still only go one night a week also. I have been to Selinsgrove 410 races. I see enough Port Royal fans there that I am not sure Selingrove has the fan base to pay a 410 purse without fans from Port Royal Don't say, well it would be good local racing racing. Being some what coopertive to be friendly is one thing. When come down to it friendship is frienship and business is business. The two don't always mix well when you are competitors. When it comes down to it I will guess that if someone trys Friday nights they will be on their own. Clinton County did it but they were out of the way and drew different caliber of cars for less money and their fan base didn't expect the top cars to show up.

If he'd be willing to do it, Kreitz would be an absolute fool not to unbolt Logan's seat and go all in with Pittman. He'd be fast everywhere they went and he gives you a chance no matter what track or what series.
|
Pittman owns a business in Texas .So I doubt this is a long term deal.

I just heard a vicious Rumor that Jacob Allen may be running the World Finals at Charlotte.

Another old man rant. What's with all these cute little press release parting of ways? "Wishing each other the best in future endeavors", "enjoyed every minute of my time at rotten crotch motorsports", "I have decided to go a new direction", "we have mutually decided to pursue other avenues amicably".
I miss the days when Jac H. would just unbolt his seat from his current car, walk 4 pit stalls down and put it in some other shit box. No good-bye, no see ya' later, no hugs, no PR crafted release. Nobody found out until the following Thursday when you scanned thru the time trial list in Speed Sport. "Huh, Jac is back in the Aristocrat #2v, wonder what happened?"

He'll still be with RSR next year.
The RSR Team will be fielding a car for Ruetzel next year (per twitter)
Posted around 5pm EST.
Looking into 2024, Austin will be stepping away from driving and focusing on running a new team for RSR, with Aaron behind the wheel. More details to come later. We are excited to support and give these talented drivers opportunity with great crews. - PR

I know of more than just a few 410 teams that would race Selinsgrove Fridays, and Port Saturdays . Plus a few teams that would race Selinsgrove and Lincoln . I'm guessing the late model field would also be ok . I doubt this rumor will come true , but if it does , I'll be there !

Not necessarily closing up shop. But things will change for the 15 car. Rudeen bringing money to the deal and it will be Sunshine in the 15 car. Sheldon will be in the 7BC with Ste house backing out of team ownership as well.

Precisely -- Aaron doesn't like the track at Charlotte one bit (it sucks, tbh). He was sitting in his garage on Beggar's Night, enjoying the beautiful Iowa weather.

Outlaws to have at least 4 $100k or more to win races in 2024. Gibby mentioned that last night saying the schedule would be released soon. Also said Husets might have some big news coming about the High Banked Nationals coming up.

It will be interesting to see what choices the tracks make sanctioning their biggest events. That was the determining factor in the last two rebellions. Tracks that run big Late Model specials under Outlaw sanction might get their arms twisted. That sort of leverage was rumored to have been used last time.
When the dust settles there are only so many of the biggest events and they're pretty much all exclusively WoO. There is a measure of loyalty and trust between tacks and series that have a history working together.

I hope Port Royal switches the 3 nights of the Tuscarora 50 to WoO races , drops all the All Star and the other WoO races and changes them back to regular non-sanctioned races.

Outlaws would have to change their entire West coast tour.

That would suck. The all-stars at Port are fantastic shows with great fields of cars.

I doubt High Limit sections Tuscarora 50 because the Silver Dollar Gold Cup is the exact same weekend. I expect the Tusky 50 to be the unsanctioned in 2024 and beyond.
