Your an idiot.. Put it on a track that can handle more than 15 cars so they can make some more money.

That's a typical comment from
Sunhoney .... She's mad an event to raise money is moved to a venue where it has a better chance of success .. She prefers watching 5 vintage mods exhibition race around 3 empty half barrels of beer to watching the heat races at the world 100

While the race at AMP drew a decent field of cars and pretty good crowd, I think it's good that the show has been moved back to where it originally started. I think I heard that the family was more involved in the racing up that way. I do give Jeff and the crew at AMP a lot of credit, they gave three memorial races that didn't have a track to host them this year, a place to race.

The Connor Bobik Memorial is going to be hosted at Mckean as well for 2014; a two day show in August I believe.

as far as the payout the ulms gives the track a base payout for the race i choose to raise money to add to the payout and last yr i raised over $5000 that was added from first to last
i have done this each yr from day one of this race and will continue to do it from year one until this year i have raised close to $35,000 from local donors who have unselfishely donated money and gift certificates or items to this race i was offered a date to have the race at amp in 2014 by mr taylor and i thank him and his staff for letting me have it there last year but it has always been in my thoughts about getting it back to mcr and when mr kennedy got the lease for the track i approached him and mr zuver about returning the race to mcr and they said yes a date will be forth comming
