2009 NSS Events

The site listing all of the NSS events for 2009 is at www.nssracing.ning.com. Anyone who is registered (and all NSS Racers should be) can list a NSS Event — along with their track photos and videos. The events don’t even have to be races — if you have a club dinner, awards dinner or any other type of NSS Event — please list it.

I’ve gotten the ball rolling by listing the 7 NMCA events plus the Mopars at the Strip. However, I know that there are people with an interest in the Monster Mopar, and NSS/NMC race in Dallas in April, a NSS Race in Alabama that was scheduled the same day as the Monster, all of the Classics, the 422 races, the Goodguys Races, and the two Nostalgia races in Kansas City.

I set up the site up for all to participate in the uploading of the events, videos, and track photos — and not for me to have to do it all. I encourage those who might have a stake in a particular NSS event to quickly list that event so you lose less in a date conflict — and for all racers to use this site to see all of the NSS Events listed in chronological order — as there are a few date conflicts again this year.

I’ve gone to great lengths to promote this site with magazines and the NMCA — who have promised to feature the site; and with Google. Do a search for “Nostalgia Super Stock” and you will see that the sites I’ve set up are steadily climbing to the top. This site will be the one-stop place to see the entire year’s NSS Racing Events, track photos and videos. In the last couple of days, another 100 photos have been uploaded as a dozen or so videos. Some new racer adds a new photo, event, or video (or a comment to another driver’s page) — so you ought to consider regular visits.

Also, the 100 photos with the most stars votes are the photos used in the photo show. Anyone (not just members) can embed the photo show on their web site — and many have so far. I suggest you vote on your ten to 25 favorite photos — to ensure they’re included in the photo show.

Again, there are three parts to the NSS-Racing.com Community:

• The News site
• The Forum and the
• Event, Photo, and Video site

If you haven’t yet registered with the forum and Event/Photo/Video site — I encourage you to do so, and to invite those NSS racers you don’t yet see in the membership.

I was up to Texas Thunder last week to pick up the Big Red Ram — after having some year end upgrades done to it, and to drop off the Black Coronet as a back up car for the events I’m running this year. It was also a good time for my new Crew Chief/Shop Rat to be introduced to the guys up in Frisco.

While there, I shot a couple of photos of the 60 Plymouth wagon that I’ll be racing in 2010 — and discussed with Mark fiberglass fenders, hood, deck and bumpers; paint; and the engine going into the car. The transmission/shifter is the one that just came out of the Red Coronet. Below are a couple of photos.
