Subject: For Immediate Release:

The Texas Drag Racing League is excited to announce it has confirmed its first date for its planned five races to run its Super 4.70 Heads Up Index Race, a Pro Tree no handicap event at San Antonio Raceway. The format is a no limit, absolute all run, of any combination, the stated rules are two; must be a door car with working doors, and no throttle stops. Everything else runs. We run two time trials before eliminations, the pairings will be drawn from a hat, you must be in the lanes within 15 minutes of first call, the lanes will close after that and you will not be allowed to run.

GTX Fleet Services, a much needed sponsor, will pay $200 cash to the perfect 4.700 run during qualifications and $200 cash to the first Perfect 4.700 winning run during eliminations. If this second bonus is not awarded it will roll to the next race and so on until the end of the five race series, at which time it will be awarded to the Driver with the most round wins during the series.

The good folks at SAR have agreed to allow the car and driver in for no charge, regular track gate will be charged for all others, we will collect $200 per car in advance before the first qualifying hit, or you can preregister for a $25 savings up until May 1st 2012. If you do not have your official window sticker in place for the start of the first hit, you will not be allowed in the lanes.

The payout will be as follows (based on a minimum of 8 cars entered).

Winner: $1,000
Runner up: $ 500
Semi Loser: $ 100

Purse will adjust with car count up or down. Those interested in participating must indicate your intentions by email before May the 16th with your car information, your name and your tow vehicle license plate to obtain your free admission, if you are not on the list you will not be permitted in at no charge, and there will be no refunds paid for admission. The email for this is: jhcmitch@hotmail.com or just click on my name in blue above.

We are looking for additional financial partners to participate in a couple of race day categories such as:

The Tale Of The Tape: the round winner with the tightest margin of victory.
.
The Who Got The Light: First Perfect reaction Time in Competition Rounds.

The Hard Luck Winner: Judged by Jeff Mitchell for the worst mechanical failure.

The Bad Beat: Best Wasted Hole Shot on a losing round of competition.

The Sleepy Bear: Worst Light of the day in competition.

You can offer a cash prize, gift certificate, or hard assets in the name of your company for any of these awards, give us an email and some decals and the winner must display your sticker to be eligible. So come on all you self employed gear heads, give something back to this sport of ours and buck up.

More information to come, See you in The Lanes!
