This is not the final version but a source very near and dear to you has it on his computer. We are waiting on a sponsors box at the bottom to fill up. So far we have 6 sponsors committed to helping us with our ads in Kit Car Builder. We are also looking at placing ads in another magazine as well.

Interesting foot note is that we have had more inquiries this year than we have had in the 4 years Dean and I have been organizing this event. Maybe we need to make Run N Gun a traveling event every year or so?

Thanks Clois, I'm sure he will post it when the time is right. Traveling RNG - I think is a great idea. I know many that I spoke to at the last two RNG's in St. Louis really thought Hallet, Putnam and others would be great to visit. I only hope you keep it in the Midwest as it seems to be central to those traveling to the event. Although, I'm not sure I will make it to Nebraska this year, having to pick and choose my trips for this year.

Hey Clois, keep up the good work.
My eyes are shot, just been out windsurfing all morning (no wetsuit, 78 deg, he he he).
Did I read the flyer correctly that there is no prep class for DOT tires?, only Street and Pro. Does that mean that I need to figure out how to drive with slicks?

You will love them Richard!! As fast as you and your brother are you could out run most of us on a set 5 yr old Michelin Truck Tires.

Since Dean, Mat, and I are putting up all the money for this years event we decided to cut back on the trophies since we have had at least 20 or so left over for the last several years. We also eliminated the RNG Experience class this year. By the way here is a link to an overhead of the track and I think you will love it. Lot's of run off and no concrete walls.

Looks good. No concrete, which is good for us Baileys. So was I correct, no prep class?
Would the normal DOT crowd get lumped in the street class, or made to run with the fast guys in Pro. After all, the DOT tires are Dot legal for street use.

No concrete?

suuper!!

However Clois I think getting rid of the prep class is a bad idea. You'll have slippery and grippery tires but no middle, kinda like a front and back cover. with no pages in the book. I guess my point being most anyone that tracks a cobra replica has or runs a set of dot's but most people would have to go buy a set of slicks to stay competitive and I know I can't afford a set as well as the drive up from florida. So that puts me back in street class.....and we all know how that ended up when it was dry

Keep the dot class with the cubic inch breaks, please. Maybe lump some of the power adder cars in to those classes depending on tires to consolidate trophies.

p.s; look forward to seeing you guys again.
