We need help passing out fliers. If anyone would like to help, please email your name and mailing address to hybridentertainment78@yahoo.com Promoters are assigned a number and are paid on commission, $2 for every flier that comes in with your number on it. Spectators bring in the fliers because of the $2 off admission coupon. Checks are mailed within a week after the event. The program pays well if you get enough fliers out. There are successful, repeat promoters every year at every location. Here is what the flier looks like...

Because Route 66 is about 10 times the price to hold a sanctioned event. US 41 track is all fuqked up from what I have been told . They lost their IHRA certification for insurance reasons and lack of track maintenance and the prep is terrible. Very bad reputation but they still get a bunch of people going out there . Because of the lack of track in the chicagoland area. That and 66 are the only ones around chicago unless you drive up to The Grove or something.

So basically you pay ten times the price for ten times the track.

LAst time I went all the way down to 41 some kids had come and stolen the tree and a bunch of timing equipment so noone had any E/T's

US 41 is officially an unsanctioned track as of January. Whether or not they got their @!#$ fixed and got a sanctioning I don't know but you will never see me there. I've seen some bumble@!#$ areas of the country that have NHRA and IHRA sanctioned tracks so theres no reason US41 can't do it.



I used to race cars, now I race myself.

I remember that place. We snuck Corey (phkz24) inside in my trunk because we didn't think the place was worth the cash LOL. That place wasn't accredited either was it??
