'04 DSM ShootOut Options

[awdnot2]

I just got confirmation from Norwalk Raceway Park, we have a date already for the 12th Annual DSM/EVO Shootout!

Mark your calendars, plan your vacations, you don't want to miss out on this!

August 15th, 2004.

The DSM Shootout is something I started over 11 years ago just out of love for the DSM's. It started out with 8 guys getting together and we had our own staging lane for a night of grudge racing. The next year we had the same thing, one lane just for the DSM's at the track, 16 cars. The next year it grew to 48 cars. From then we had to do an actual track rental, it was getting to big. We use to rent the track on Fridays during the day, then it got to big for that too. For the last two years it has been so large we had to do a Sunday rental.

The Shootout is just a great time. People who have come for years just can't wait for the next year. They plan their entire family vacation around it.

This year, 11th Annual 2003, we invited the EVO's to come out. This was basically a last minute thing and to my surprise we had over 20 EVO's there. Really nice to see some new blood.

My plans for this year are to offer two seperate classes for the EVO's. One will be for anyone who is still running the stock turbo the other for guys that have upgraded. There are also bracket classes for guys that don't want to run heads-up.

Keep this in mind it truly is a great time. Al was there for the first time and the enthusiasm he had was almost overwhelming, I think that is why I like the guy so much!

Any comments, questions or words of wisdom are more than welcome. Please ask or comment here so we can keep this close to the top for all to see.

Thanks a lot.

I'd suggest anyone who wants a hotel for the weekend to make reservations before the new year.

For the newbies -

Every year Buschur Racing, one of the biggest shops for DSM tuners, holds a Shootout event for DSM enthusiasts around the country. Events on the day of the Shootout usually consist of a informal show and lots of Drag racing in all sorts of categories. The Shootout is usually held on a Sunday, with another unrelated sport compact race the preceding Saturday. All this takes place at the Norwalk Raceway Park in Norwalk, Ohio. It's about an 8 hour trip from Peoria, but well worth the drive IMO. I've gone the last two years, but without a car. This year, I'm racing. You can check out more at www.Bushurracing.com.

Who all is planning on going this year?

I might be interested in making a trek....we shall see though, depending on the condition of the Laser.

an 8 hour trip sounds well worth it to me. as long as the trani in the gsx is working, you can count on me being there

Last year was my first year and it was quite a treat. It was then that I saw some cars that would kick and pop and back fire and somehow come out of the cloud of smoke with 11 second quarter. And as for the quick16 cars, simply amazing. I'll be getting the days off work tomorrow and reserving a hotel room soon. Thinking the comfort inn, any suggestions? Any econolodge guys here. Also for newbs, get a room NOW. later guys
