RE: 2006 SRT Nationals
We are proud to announce a new video trailer that we will soon have hosted on the Nationals website . CSCVidz, who will be producing the Nationals DVD this year, has put together a short trailer. This trailer will help us get those of you who are only stimulated visually, you know who you are, excited about the 2006 SRT Nationals.
So if you would like a sneek peek of a few of the great activities you can participate in during the Nationals, take a look at the trailer. This will show you just a fraction of the great things you can do at the Nationals, as well as just a quick peek at what is in store for this year's DVD. CSCVidz will soon be posting the details of their requirements for footage to be donated by anyone attending the event and who gets good video clips. They will use as much of this donated footage as possible using the best videos for the DVD.
Let us know what you think. A special thanks to fflores and CSCVidz for getting this done so quickly.

Another World Challenge Team joins the Nats
3R Racing (www.3rracing.com) will be joining us at the SRT Nationals!
3R Racing is bringing two transporters, since like the other WC teams, they will be stopping by between World Challenge races, for your enjoyment in the Pro Paddock.
Out of those transporters will roll the Viper Competition Coupe and two SRT-4R Challenge cars that they are developing. They will be testing all of the cars Wednesday on the roadcourse with the other W.C. teams, and joining us on the track on Thursday.
Driver Rob Holland will be on-hand, and several other pro drivers are expected to join him.
Personally, I continue to be amazed at the level of participation, not only from the Pro teams, but from the participants as well. This makes about 10 confirmed real road race cars that you will have access to in the paddock, and the Drag Race teams are starting to sign in as well. We'll have 10 second privateer teams (regular people like us on the forums) and a bunch of sub 10 second cars representing the professional ranks. What's important to realize is that the pro teams are there because they want to be, not because some big sponsor said they have to be there. They are paying us to be there, helping us pay the rent on the track. Be prepared to take advantage of them and their generousity. If you want to know something about car setup, ask them. If you want to know what you need to do to bring your racing program to the next level, ask them. If you want a job, you'll probably never be in a better position to introduce yourself, and ask for one.
See you in Topeka!

RE: Another World Challenge Team joins the Nats
As seen in the SRT Edge newsletter.
Ready for some rip-roaring racing action? Then you need to check out the SRT Nationals, July 19-22, 2006, at Heartland Park Topeka, in Topeka, KS.
Dale Seeley, organizer of the event, explained the philosophy behind this celebration of the SRT lineup. "The SRT Nationals is a grassroots event with something to offer the whole family. And the SRT Nationals has everything a performance car enthusiast could hope for. It's been organized by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, with just enough corporate sponsorship to allow us to offer a first-rate schedule at a first-rate facility. There will be eight hours of road course driving with instructors available. This is the same track that NASCAR uses, and it is the new home of the SCCA road racing championships. There will be more than 20 hours of drag racing on the brand-new NHRA dragstrip, featuring several formats including testing, brackets, quick-8 exhibitions and a night under the lights." Seeley added that everything isn't about speed at the SRT Nationals. "You'll also be graded on style," he said. "We'll have 20 hours of car show judging and, with the attendance expected, we'll need every hour."
You can find out how good your audio install really is, with Sound Pressure Level and Real Time Analysis measurements, from Kicker. For those that believe that style, performance, and destruction can co-exist in one competition, the burnout contest should be one for the ages.
Seeley made another important point. "The SRT Nationals will be a family-friendly event," he said. "This means that we plan to provide access to an on-site kids' corral under a tent, with swap coolers and one of those jumping things that the kids love. Families will want to stay up-to-date through the web site with activities and options provided for making their participation easier."
In addition to all of the track and car show activities, numerous sponsors and vendors will be present to provide you their latest products and services. There will also be a huge raffle with prizes worth thousands of dollars.
All Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth, and Jeep vehicles are encouraged to attend and participate in all of the activities.
