We are reviewing adding a class but I just want to be up front and honest about adding a class to the series as it costs money, time and effort and it is not as easy as some of you think it is.
Adding a class includes having event payouts , national champion payouts, world champion payouts, trophies, and adds man hours to updating and tracking on the website with points ,stats and winner circle pictures during the season.
Just adding up some quick numbers the class would cost around $25,000 to add to the series so if any of you guys want to be the class sponsor or know someone that would like to sponsor that class it would be way easier for us to add another class to the series if it is paid for
We believe 10.90 index would be the better choice if we decided to add a class because if it was 10.50 you then have to worry about hitting the 135mph mark and then safety rules completely change for the driver and vehicle because 135mph requires same safety as 9.99et
We also are looking at if we dont add a class to the whole series to do some test events that have the class added to see what kind of competitor turnout we get to validate the class
I am getting ready to head to Sema to meet with sponsors and beg for money LOL for next season so if I dont respond to your questions you will know why.
Continue on and I will try to check in during next week
