Do we have any more information on who's going to be in charge of the Columbus event. I see nothing on the Trailway's web site has changed. Still shows NMRA as the event sponsor. When i go to the NMRA site, they've dropped it!? Anybody know anything more?

Guess you're right, I thought Bob Martin told us it had been dropped by the NMRA and was going to be a nostalgia event as pre 2007.

My 2 cents worth. Gathered from talking to Bob Martin & reading in Race Pages, NMRA cut some meets and moved the Ohio event to Norwalk [can you say faster clean up after rain] & also dont`t have to put up with so many of the bracket racers ,which in my opion is the back bone of the sport. NMRA comes in to play for Columbus, because there is still money to be made for a promoter & maybe still had a contract there for that date . Just look at the prices their charging. One more thing I think the reason for any confusion is because any Info. they put out is a trial balloon to see what kind of responce they get. I belive they are planning on a couple of their street classes which were mainly local cars any way. Like I say just what I gathered , but I think some of it is close to being correct

Slightly off subject but I'm sure most of us remember the 57 scrub that showed up on the Ford weekend a couple years ago. I was watching show about a hot rod drag week, aseries of drags that require the cars to be driven a considerable distance between races. I'm sure the 57 scrub we saw was in this deal. These are real monster cars barely street legal and go like he%%. Impressive! Check out Jeff Lutz 57 scrub. Chuck

What has always amazed me about the event is there are a lot of racers but the spectator stands are empty, sooner or later if they dont get any spectators they will give it up and if there were more spectators then the pit passes and racing may be cheaper.

I noticed the empty stands. Too bad they don't come to New England dragway. I would plan to go. Those are a bunch of bada$$ cars. 9 second street cars! Chuck

what's the latest on this event. Is it back to being an All Ford event With a swap meet? I really missed that feature over the last few times. Really want to come but I can get my fill of all the Mustangs anywhere.

It's still an event on the NMRA Schedule, but "NMRA" is not in the banner like it is for the other events. I don't know if that means anything.

Whatever the case may be, it looks like the Mustangs are very much involved.

I really liked the all Ford format. Lots of interesting vintage racers and the swap meet actually had vendors. Chuck
