Hey TNturbo get them fired up! We need this to be a big event for Knoxville.

I wonder how we could get some air time on the local radio stations?

bitn03 · 08-13-2003, 08:23 AM

Rick--for the airtime...the dealership is suppose to do that..but if you hear of anything free...let me know....any free local papers down your way? I will have the flyer & reg form to everyone by Tuesday. Let me know about the judges. I need to get in contact with them if we can get a group! Thanks you guys! You're the best!

GREAT JOB RICK! (not to mention in a timely manner

) Thanks!

tnturbo · 08-15-2003, 04:38 PM

Also 411 dragway in Knoxville is open for test and tune on Saturday and Sunday. People coming from the Carolinas could always do a preliminary run of the Dragon and come into Knoxville via 129.

bitn03 · 08-19-2003, 10:07 PM

Hey I have emailed Tony at HPT to see about judging. Flyers and registration forms soon--I promise!!

We need all of the raffle prizes we can get for this show. Let me know if anyone has some! Thanks guys! Let's make this show AWESOME!!

Hazman · 08-22-2003, 10:07 PM

What are the SCMC rules for judging? Can I get a copy along with a scoring sheet?

**cobrabitn** · 08-22-2003, 11:07 PM

Rick,

The rules are right on the front page of the website for anyone who attends our shows.

On a side note...... SVT will be supporting this event through raffle and goodie prizes.

They always give us a lot of stuff.

I'm going to try and get some more stuff from a few other SCMC vendors....

Hazman · 08-23-2003, 07:10 AM

It must be old age. I spent 20 minutes looking at the main page of the website before I found that big link on the right side called Show Rules. DUH!!

bitn03 · 08-23-2003, 12:48 PM
