Hey, I am looking to hold some sort of trophy race at our track to help generate some more interest in oval locally. Outside of our normal Points Series, I don't believe the track has ever held such an event during the season. I'm just looking for ideas from you guys that have done this already and have the experience. I'd like to get some sponsorship for this event. Are the RC companies open to such things or would I be better off looking for local businesses for sponsors. I was thinking of having 4-5 main classes but I'm not really sure what ones would be most popular.(We have very sparce oval attendance so that's why I'm not sure) This is an indoor carpet track. I am open to any advice you guys have. Thanks in advance.

TTT, where's the love? no ideas anyone?

cash payout sems to draw the most.. forget the trophies.. take the extra money, or a certain amount per enrty and put it back into the cash fund.. payout is based on a per class attendance..

We have found that hobby store gift certificates or prizes work better
the just a cash payment.
This generates more interest in racing. :thumbsup:
