Re: Summer Thunder 2010 in the Heart of Oklahoma, Purcell, will be 14,15 & 16 May 201
Hello racers. My name is Jimmy Hill. I am the track director for Summer Thunder 2010 in Purcell, OK. (405-613-2709) Here are a few answers to questions I have been asked:
Entry fee $350.00: $300 goes to the class, $50 goes to the track setup crew
ie, 20 boats in a class- $6,000 pay back
Five classes- 10.00-10.99, 9.00-9.99, 8.00-8.99, 7.00-7.99, 6.00-6.99
Test N Tune- May 13, 2010 Qualify- May 14, 15, 2010 Finals- May 16, 2010
Jet-a-ways or pump release systems are required for the 7 & 6 sec classes
Race packet includes one vehicle pass, driver band, three crew bands. Additional crew bands are $10.00. Additional vehicle passes are $25.00. All four-wheelers, golf carts, pit bikes, etc. are required to have a vehicle pass. You must have a drivers license to operate a pit vehicle.
There are some rv hookups. These are available on a first come first served basis. $50/nt
Boats will be called to the ramp at 7:30 a.m. We will run boats until 5:00 p.m.
Our Summer Thunder goal is for this race to be a racer-friendly event. One of the advantages to our race is that the workers who set the track up and who run the evet are also racers, and are very familiar with the glitches and requiremets of a boat race. We want our race to run as smoothly as possible so we are very open-minded to racer's suggestions.
Thank you very much,
Jimmy Hill
