Well there is just three weeks left until the pre-entry deadline is here. After the big decision in changing the date and then the challenge of getting all the local tracks not to schedule points, Jeff and I then realized that we didn't have any time to spare. With the race being in May we had limited time to start getting these sponsors aboard. We also had to explain to them all why we needed prizes 6 months after they just gave us prizes. With the help of Andrea and Heather all of these great sponsors were happy to support us again. We even had people calling us to be part of the Jim Harrington Footbrake Classic. It's hard to believe this is going to be our 5th year doing this race. It seems like it was yesterday, I was talking to Jeff and we were discussing how footbrake racers used to be spoiled. There were a bunch of high dollar races at Atco, Cecil, Maple Grove, and Island. At that point we were down to one big dollar weekend at Maple Grove. We knew it was time to try to get another high dollar footbrake race in the northeast, but it had to be different. If you have attended this race before you know it's one of a kind. So get those pre-entries in and don't miss out on this great race, and all those great prizes. Look forward to seeing you all in May.
