... well it seems there's lots of people that are not aware of the event, so maybe we can all do our part and keep the thread under discussion and most importantly for all of us to tell everyone we know about the event ??? ...
... Facebook, Twitter, Forums, Emails and texting, i'm sure we could round up a butt ton of people if simply more people know about it, as for scheduling I'll call Jeff at KRE and see if earlier schedule time is an option?? ... unless someone here has Kevin Swaney's phone # ??? ... but it would be bad ass to see where the new Street class we ran in can go, as I know there some heavy hitters out there to race that class , and man a $2000 payout was pretty cool !!! ... ... hell maybe some kind of raffle could get generated to help pull even more people ?? ...

Maybe the people putting on this event could get some Pontiac clubs from nearby cities involved that would bring more in?

For me it's scheduled on the same weekend as a race I've always gone to.
2nd it would be better if it were either earlier in the year or later in the year. October would be best. Everyone would have their cars done by then. Earlier in the year they may still be finishing their car.

Ya Rob, I noticed you weren't at Lyons. The Norwalk event took a few from the No Box nationals race but not too many. Last year was a record at about 242 going down first round on Saturday, this year was 208. I didn't win much cash there but it's hard to travel another 4 hours to BG to race for one day when it doesn't pay anywhere near the $5000, $10,000, and $5000 at Lyons and race for 4 days. Hopefully it won't conflict next year.

Seems to be some valuable feedback here for the organizers to consider... Hopefully they get wind of it.

Also, I hear the GTOAA convention will be in St. Louis in 2017.
No word on racing yet ? gatewaygto.org 2017 will be here before we know it. As we prepare to host the GTOAA convention, Tom Oxler has put together a tentative set of committee assignment. These are intended as a starting point, so please take a look at your assignment and if you would prefer to be in a different group, please let us know. Convention Corner
