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.

Welcome, you have found the first of two best sites for Nostalgia Super Stock Racing. This site is primarily for current news. The other site is located at http://nssracing.ning.com/, and it is an interactive site that offers members the ability to upload NSS photos and NSS Videos, NSS events, communicate among each other, and keep a team blog. Finally, there's a NSS forum and a Free Classified Ad site.

We invite you to spend some time browsing around, and getting familiar with all of the Features and benefits offered to drivers, teams, and fans of Nostalgia Super Stock Drag Racing.

And Earn Money for You or Your Favorite Charity.

There is a free service called Squidoo that has a very kool product. In about 30 minutes, anyone — regardless of their computer experience — can build a free web page (Lens) of their Nostalgia Super Stock Car and team, complete with photos and videos. An example of my Big Red Ram can be found at www.squidoo.com/bigredram

The cool part is that when people visit your web page (referred to as a Lens) and click on a banner of an advertiser, you earn revenue. You can either have that revenue deposited into your Paypal account monthly — or select the charity for it to be donated to.

Another example of Squidoo lens is one that I whipped up in less than 15 minutes for the www.NSS-Monster.com site. You can check it out at www.squidoo.com/nostalgiasuperstock.

Please take a moment to click on those two links. If you like the concept — then roll a brother a bone and click the 5th star at the top of the page. If you would like to make a lens of your NSS Car & Team — there is a “Create A Lens” button at the bottom of the page to click to do so. Click that sucker and give it a try — what do you have to lose? You will find that it is too easy – and that you can earn some monthly change or donate it to a worthy charity.

Once you do a lens of your car, tell the rest of us the internet address at http://www.conservativeoldhippie.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1729 and we’ll come visit it, and rank it 5-stars (so it makes it up higher on the search list). If you have any questions, post them in that thread and we’ll get them answered for you.

This is a way to have a little fun, promote your car, promote the sport, and earn a little pocket change. You will notice that on those two Lens that I promote the NSS-Monster site with a listing of the posts made at www.nss-monster.com. That’s all done automatically with what is called a RSS Reed. Just click the RSS model for your lens and put the web address http://www.nss-monster.com and it will display and update automatically. You can also install a Cafe Press module on your lens — and help out a brother with listing the NSS Wall Calendars on your lens. It helps build context for your lens — and helps promote interest in NSS Racing. Again, click the two links, below to get an idea of a couple of NSS lens — and then create one for your car.
