Is this an index or heads-up class?

Bracket racing then, sounds great everyone has a chance to win.

I need to see if we can make the trip from Chicago.

Definitely try to make the trip... you will not be disappointed. If you come down, please stop in the tower and see me. Aside from the race we have thousands of dollars in round prizes and giveaways, run for the money, and an "off the trailer run", where you get prizes just for putting a dial in on your car and making a time shot! (free!) Any other questions, please feel free to ask me. For more information, you can look at our website: http://jpfetchpromotions.wix.com/jimharringtonclassic

Thank you, hope to see you in September.

12 hours and 744 miles... it is doable but need to check my oldest child's travel soccer schedule. I don't want to drive alone and would like to bring the family.

Jeff,

Does the pre-entry fee include entry for drive and crew member (my wife)
what is if we bring the kids? that would make 5 of us for a Saturday track outing.
and we have all day Sunday to drive back.

Please PM the details along with accommodations near the track.
Any sites worth seeing if we arrive on Friday ?

Last time I was on the East coast was 1994, I took a road trip to see Falling Water in Pennsylvania and spent the weekend in Pittsburg...
Ironicly the car I would trailer to race this Sept. is the same car I drove to Pittsburg in '94 LOL




Thanks,

Thanks,
How are you?

Crew is $15 per person. Children under 8 are free.

The Best Western North East Inn sponsors our race every year and offers our racers a discounted rate if you mention that you will be participating in our race. They are the closest hotel at #39 Elwoods Road, North East, MD. You can call #(410) 287-5450.

I'm sure there are some fun things to do in the area, but I wouldn't be the best person to ask about that. Maybe someone else on the boards can help you who are from that area.

Here is the link to our website that might also help you. Thank you!

Wish i could make it down for this race but I will be out of town. My father will be taking his car down. From what he has said, it will be a great race with lots of giveaways and an all around awesome event.
