FE Race & Reunion ***URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT, PLEASE READ***
« on: April 15, 2013, 07:22:02 AM »
Hey folks, first I want to thank you all for showing interest and support for the FE Race & Reunion to be held at Beaver Springs Dragway on April 27 (4/27). An important change has come up. Beaver Springs has been put into a position where they will need to charge a spectator admission fee of $10. None of us are happy with this sudden change but due to circumstances it appears necessary and I’ll explain so you have the whole story. It’s pretty simple. What we thought was going to be a few FE guys bringing out their cars on a test and tune day, grill some hot dogs, bench race and make some passes has turned into a full blown event. The interest and sponsor support have pushed this into a major event at Beaver. Beaver Bob tells it like this. His insurance company has deemed the event a race and not a Tnt, triple the insurance premium and VHT price and initial amount figured for the event has doubled. So to offset Beaver Springs expenses it has become clear that we need to let Beaver Springs charge a $10 spectator fee. We hope you all understand. To keep this event going for years to come we need to help the facility, Beaver Springs with this issue. Beaver Bob has helped take the show to a higher level so we need to respond and do our part to keep the show going successfully for now and for years to come.

Put your car on the track is still $40 (all crew in your tow vehicle are free)

Car show participants are free, so bring out your FE. Drive one and get in free, includes your passengers.

Spectators age 16-up - $10, (age 15 – under free)

Participants (with any FE race or show) receive a “Participant” decal, first 200 spectators receive a special event decal.

Pass the word – see you at the Beaver on 4/27

We apologize for the late changes.
