The future of Heads Up Index Racing in 2010
Everyone that ran in the Heads Up Index Race had the
same comment, "This is the coolest race ever. It's too
bad we didn't have more cars. If we can get the guys to
give it a shot, we know they'd love it." Well we
agree completely.
To that end we're going to make the
races very special in 2010. All of the racers are in
agreement that having three special events would be
perfect. The dates ...Memorial and Labor Day Fridays,
plus Flashback Friday.
We'll showcase the race on three of our biggest races that
feature Bob Motz 200 MPH Jet Truck and Nostalgia Super
Stockers.
