Default Anyone Interested in a SFWD race in at Rockingham,NC- May 3rd

So, Looking over the Schedule of races for the east coast, theres really not much going on in the southeast in the month of May besides IFO in Montgomery, Al. Just wondering if anyone would be interested in participating in an SFWD race at Rockingham Dragway in Rockingham, NC. May 3rd is currently on the calender for "Phantasm Imports at the Rock," sponsored by a local shop. I have approached Phantasm motorsports about the idea and will be meeting with the owner soon to talk over some possibilities of adding an SFWD race to the event and possibly other classes. All of us local to Rockingham would really like to see an Import Drag event back in NC seeing as the last large event here was NOPI in 06. This track was a big hit with racers when NOPI was here, I remember Brent Rau being interviewed by NOPI-Tunervision and telling them that it was the best hooking track he'd ever been to if I'm not mistaken. Info on some of the events already planned for the day can be found at- http://carolinahondas .com/showthread.php?t=67595 If you'd like more info on the track- www.Rockingham Dragway.com. Please Post up and let me know if you might be interested. I'd really like to get the ball rolling soon so we can possibly get some sponsored payouts for this event if theres enough interest. Also, please let me know if you are interested in competing, sponsoring, or just putting some sort of contingency or bounty on the table. A car count of how many entries you have would be great too.

Possible contendors-
1. Boostfed86
2. hondasarethebest(HR car+SFWD?)
3. EG BEAST+3?
4. Justin4
5. WeakSi
6. SpoolinMatt
7. 13173
8. BoostedEJ_civic
9. cotorresgee+ SloMotion Crew?

I would def try and be there. Not sure if my car is going to be ready or ever up to par to compete in a SFWD class, but I would def try and make it.

Im guessing Howard would be interested and I still talk to a friend that recently got his car about done and he would also be interested as well. I will spread the word around about this.

Terry, I have met you before down at RLZ. Howard was tuning my car (teal turbo EG hatch).......Not sure if you remember?

I see you have moved out from VA and down into NC, not to far away from me now. Durham is about an hour or less from me.

Hey Tuna, Sorry I didn't reply above. I was trying to get some quick views/replies in earlier at work. The event really is nothing more than basicly a Test and tune with a car show. I am trying to push the SFWD class in because I honestly know more people that are serious about racing that would fit into the SFWD class than others. If you have people that may be interested, refer them to the thread and we'll see what kind of interest we may have and go from there.

What kind of payouts would you guys be looking for to make the drive? I'd love to see y'alls crew out. Saw y'all at MIR for WCF and you had some great looking cars that ran very well.
