We also need help passing out fliers for this event. If anyone would like to help, please email your name and mailing address to hybridentertainment78@yahoo.com. Promoters are assigned a number and are paid on commission, $2 for every flier that comes in with your number on it. Spectators bring in the fliers because of the $2 off admission coupon. Checks are mailed within a week after the event. The program pays well if you get enough fliers out. There are successful, repeat promoters every year at every location. Here is what the flier looks like...

Was planning on going. Broke the car on the dyno last night....some sort of electrical problem causing broken motors ....frusterating.... I could get the engine pulled and rebuilt, but it would just break again, and I'd be in the same place I am now...minus much needed sleep. Sorry guys.
