Pro Superstar Shootout II (6 Viewers)

[Nitro Fiend]

I believe you have to be invited to participate at the race, correct ? How many cars in the pro categories are invited?
Their current list of competitors shows 11 TF, 12 FC, and 14 PS. Just curious as to why each category has a different number of cars.
Maybe their list hasn't been updated ? If they invite someone and they turn them down do they invite someone else ?

actually rite now the shootout website shows 10 FC and 11 TF.
wondering if they will add one more FC so there will be 3 DNQ cars in each nitro category, allowing for (3) FC vs. TF runs on saturday?
also, the saturday schedule shows 4 rnds. of PS, so again wondering if 2 more will be added to round out a 16 car field?

My understanding is you have to be a member of PRO to be invited. So I would assume anyone who is, has already received an invitation.

Bradenton get's a new part owner, and getting some upgrades.

wonder if the underlying reason is that they can be more effective as a single company with a single piece of property
moving forward, against urban sprawl and whatever else the future holds?
hope their partnership works and they accomplish a lot together.

dejoria no longer on list ...... wonder if cruzer will attend?
would be cool to see wilk drive one more time.

So, did I miss something? Is Scag no longer sponsoring any TF or FC teams?

Justin Ashley posted on Instagram today and wearing a Scag firesuit. Wilkerson posted twice in the last week with Scag as a sponsor. Both are still entered into the Pro Race with Scag as their sponsor.

So, after I posted, I started to look at this one and see if it was somewhere I would be.
Interested concept/format (I would have run TF vs FC on one of the days, but...).
Wasn't this a big money race last year? I don't see anything about a purse at all this time around.
Did Drag Illustrated come with THAT much $$$, because I don't see them mentioned either.

Skag actually OWNS the Ashley and Wilkerson teams, also owns the Richards F/C racing team.
