Two were supposed to pay today, one days ago, the fourth I never heard back from. We are still short. Racers who have paid, please let them know. I'm not going to keep bugging them.

now for the other fwd racers...

On the day of the event, we will either put you in FIP which pays $1k total, or create a $500 total payout sfwd class on the spot, just depends on how fast the fip cars are that day. If they are mostly slower than high 9s, we will put you in fip. If most are faster, we will create a sfwd class. The fip class has been pretty weak lately. Either way, you will have a class to race. same entry fee of $30.

yes, anyone can enter the gamblers race. The more, the better. All money will go into the winners pot. No deadline, but will be nice to put up money in advance so others can see how big it is getting. This will attract more and more racers. Maybe we can get a quick 16?!?! That would be about a $5000+ payout to first!

The more support, the better.

If your company would like to advertise through this Import Face-Off and give 100% back to the racers, please email me at hybridentertainment78@yahoo.com or Ph: 225-247-RACE (7223). All money or product will go towards racer payouts. Don't waste sponsorship dollars on never ending race builds and/or canceled promotions [/rant]. Invest your advertising dollars into a stable, consistently successful event with committed racers!

looks like what we talked about on Monday has come to pass. LMK when to start paying for the FIP class. I'll gladly be the first to pay right now.

if no one takes him out at the Tulsa or Baton Rouge event, the bounty will go up another $200 which will be another $600 up for grabs.

I'm hoping we'll be able to take him out in Oct. in Baton Rouge. Depending on what happen at the baton rouge IFO, we might head out to Dallas for this gamblers event.

can sponsors put money out for bounties such as quickest reaction time, best 60', worst 60', first to break an axle, etc....

If I can get my CRX ready in time, I'm down to compete! I had planned on getting it in FIS at the next Houston IFO, but perhaps it's time to get to work on the rex more!

Hey Cliff, what about the rules for FIS. I got a couple boys set up for sfwd class, but if we don't have that class will they be allowed into FIS?? Small things like open DP, one headlight, holes in bumpers and fenders are not allowed in FIS. Seeing how more than half the sfwd'ers are running the gamblers race we probably won't fill the sfwd class.
