  1. I started in the Race & Car Show Promotions back in 1985. I did it on a wing and a prayer. I was working Midnight to 8am M-F and coming home, getting a shower, grab breakfast, and get on the phones and/or typewriter (before computers). My first Event in 1985 was the Super Car Show Down held in Bowling Green, KY. I invited Car Craft Magazine and Car Review Magazine and both sent out their Editors. We got on the front cover of Car Craft with 6 pages of editorial inside of which 2 pages were in color. Car Review gave me an honorable mention on the Front Cover with 65 pages of Black & White Editorial inside. I only had 46 cars show up the first year.

     

    But in 1987, with the Magazine coverage the Event was huge and I made enough money that I QUIT my regular job. I would honestly tell you this, if you have a dream, think it through, and take the chance, if you fail then at least you tried, but if you succeed then your pride will take over from there. Either way I wish you the best.

  2. If you guys really want to do a track rental or would it be easier for everyone to get together let's say at Dragway 42 or Quaker City on one weekend night for some GRUDGE Racing ? I have rented QCR for July 18 & 19, 2009 to to the LX & BEYOND NATIONALS.

     

    We have the track from 7:30am to 3:00pm on Saturday and then the track is going to be doing a Bracket Race right after wards from 3:30pm till Midnight (and that is open to all comers). If you would like to have a get together then I will pull some strings and

    get you guys hooked up.

     

    Hell, I will even go so far as to put up some prizes and a foot trophy to the Winner of a CR ONLY Bracket Class.

     

    Let me know

  3. I take my wife to the strip club when I go. Most of the time we have a good experience but that depends on the dancer's ATTENTION we get !!!!! Back about 20 years ago my wife got up on the dance floor and made some $$$$$$$
  4. Trust me guys this is a BLAST !!!!!!!!!!!

     

    Bring your everyday vehicle or do like I did last year I went out and rented an AVEO from Enterprise and I purchased their insurance.

    The best ET we could muster was a 24.?? @ 72 MPH with a 5.1? sixty foot time as the starting line was real slippery.

  5. Justin,

     

    If I may make a suggestion. If you are good around people and know cars why not become a Service Consultant at a Car Dealership ? The best ones are the ones that have the UPSCALE clientele. But you have to have a good driving record.

     

    Good Luck with your search

    Chuck
