Money Race- August 30th

[Announcer Dude]

Let's get ready for the next one!

GMP will be hosting a money race on August 30th. The format will be 2 rounds of practice, qualify and features. 16 karts will start the features. If there are more than 16 entries in a class we will lock in the top 10 on time and run B-mains for the last 6 feature starting positions.

Entry Fee- $40 for all classes except Rookie is $20 and Rookies get trophies instead of payout.

There will be a $5 transponder fee per entry.

100% Payout to top 4, plus GMP will add $50 for every 10 entries in each class.

1st- 50%
2nd- 25%
3rd- 15%
4th- 10%

12pm- GATES OPEN

2pm- PRACTICE

B-MAINS AND FEATURES WILL FOLLOW.

Gate fees/pit passes will remain the same as a regular weekly race. Season pit passes are not good for this race because it is not a points race.

Here are the classes we are going to run:

** There must be at least 3 entries in a class to run a race.**

We are going to have an open practice on Friday night, August 29th, from 6-9pm. Admission will be $5 per person, and the concession stand will be open. You can also leave your trailers and/or camp overnight if you desire for free. You must be self contained if you camp because we do not have RV hookups. We're looking forward to another real good turnout for this race.

I will also be giving away lots of Dale Earnhardt Jr., #88, National Guard items on behalf of myself and the Mississippi Army National Guard.

Let's hope for good weather and a great turnout.

OK Ya'll. Here's what some of you have been asking for. At the money race we will run a Crate Flat Kart class. The rules are the same as the Sr. Champ Crate class with these few exceptions.

* 15 yrs and older
* 360#
* May run detached fuel tank with fuel pump, but it MUST pulse from the crankcase, not the intake.
* If you run the detached fuel tank you MUST have the stock tank and parts with you at the track in case of a claim. The claim rule is $150, and if you get claimed and do not have the stock tank and parts with you at the track you will be disqualified. If claimed you will keep your clutch, breather, exhaust pipe and fuel pump and tank if you run the detached.

These motors move on pretty good in the 410# champs, so they ought to do real well in a 360# flat.

Who's gonna give it a try?

are you going to have a friday practice before the money race.

[Announcer Dude]

We are going to have an open practice on Friday night, August 29th, from 6-9pm. Admission will be $5 per person, and the concession stand will be open. So, if anyone wants to come get a little track time before the Money Race, here's another opportunity. You can also leave your trailers and/or camp overnight if you desire for free. You must be self contained if you camp because we do not have RV hookups. We're looking forward to another real good turnout for this race.

If a restrictor plate driver runs the crate class for the money race... Can we move back down to restrictor plate for the rest of the points races afterwards?

[Announcer Dude]

Yes, you can run in that race and still race in the Gold Plate class. The Crate classes are not WKA classes, they are GMP classes.

[riddlerrider]

is there a clutch rule for the clone motor?

[Announcer Dude]

No clutch rule, if somebody claims your motor you keep your clutch, breather, header pipe and muffler.

[riddlerrider]

do you have a set of written rules for the clone flat kart class? i just would like for everyone to be on the same page. Can we run a pipe,aftermarket filter, is it only pump gas? please clarify.
thanks

The rules for the rest of the season is "CLAIM IT". If it has too much work done to it and it wins; Just claim it. for 150.00

That is what we plan on doing if we get to race the darn thing.

Other than that do what you wish to it. That is the way it was explained to me.

I believe next season there will be engine rules with no claim.
