The announcement everyone has been waiting for Great AMC Day GAD 2023 will be June 2nd at Edgewater Sports Park in Cleves Ohio. AMC/Mopar, Stick Shift, 2nd chance and The Heads up Shootout will all be returning for the racing classes, in addition to the car show and swap meet. Rules will be posted below for all of the racing classes. The track will be running concessions during GAD, but I'm hoping to possibly bring back the Pre Party the Thursday night before GAD(more details coming soon). Hope to see everyone there and make this the best GAD yet! Entree fees, class guaranteed payouts, awards etc will be announced soon. All sponsorships needed and appreciated, this event could not happen without everyone's support - Damian Terrell Also if anyone has any feedback on changes or what could be better from last year or what was good, please do not hesitate on commenting below. Rules: Heads up shootout- Must be either AMC bodied door car or Amc powered door car. RWYB 1/8th mile pro tree N/T AMC/mopar- must be either AMC/Mopar bodied or powered, 1/4 bracket race format Stick Shift- Any makes and models welcome, must use the clutch to leave the line and the driver must shift the car, no air shifts allowed. 1/4 mile Bracket race format 2nd Chance - First round buybacks for all bracket style classes

Another sponsor update for Great AMC Day GAD 2023 This one is very special to me and means a lot to have on board once again this year. As many know, Mike's Auto Service aka Mike Luke originally started GAD and hosted it for 20+ years before I took over when he retired from hosting it. If it wasn't for Mike putting in a lot of time, organizing etc GAD would not be anything near what it is today. It means the world to me to have his support once again and hope to see him with the famous POS at GAD 23 Rules/Entry fees: Spectators, car show, swap meet: $20 Heads up shootout- Must be either AMC bodied door car or Amc powered door car. RWYB 1/8th mile pro tree N/T $100 Buy in(money put straight into the pot) AMC/mopar- must be either AMC/Mopar bodied or powered, 1/4 bracket race format $70 entry fee Stick Shift- Any makes and models welcome, must use the clutch to leave the line and the driver must shift the car, no air shifts allowed. 1/4 mile Bracket race format $70 entry fee 2nd Chance - First round buybacks for all bracket style classes, and or any non amc/Mopar/stick car wanting to race. $70 entry fee for non first round buy backs, 1st round buy backs fee to be determined closer to the event Test & Tune-up open to all makes/models looking to just make some passes down the track and not running in any of the other classes $50 entry fee Sponsor list for GAD 23(in random order currently): Joe Pinsoneault Calvert Racing Suspensions Mike's Auto service Tom Guarr AMC Acres Kennedy American AMC Parts Carreplico Control Freak Suspensions Stockill Built Racing/Peter Schulte Racing Dan Curtis/AZ AMC Restoration John Garland Dean Vaughn Dennis Becker Jim Sobel High Octane Design Co. - AMC Parts Steve Feniello/Arizona AMC John Howard QA1 James "Fuzz" Scheid Altitude printing High Country Graphics A70sthingautomobilia.com Pos68 Motorsports

What everyone has been waiting to see, Great AMC Day GAD 2023 guaranteed payouts are below AMC/Mopar: 1000 winner, 200 R/U Stick shift: 800 winner, 200 R/U Heads up Shootout: 1800 winner, 200 R/U(entry fees also go toward this payout.) 2nd Chance will be based on amount of entrees. •• Stick shift class wise the payout is lower than last year due to car count of last year. If car count is good this year, the payout will increase Also it will be The Fastest Street car award, the Red/White/Blue amc award, Fastest young gun(racer under 21) and the best reaction time of a young gun racer. A few more awards are very possible like a long distance award etc. If any one wants to sponsor any awards listed or wants one, please reach out to me.

no ideal Tony... wow, what a gas sucking rig you got there now! But the money the fuel costs, is probably less then staying at dive motels on your adventures. hoping to take the POS out for a test and tune this friday... last time out with it was last GAD... i've made a few changes since then and would like to see if its dialed in yet. |

We are in the same boat Mike, 68 needs valves check then ready to load but other than a one clutch dump on the street we are coming completely untested on it's brand new engine/trans combo Cookout will probably start around 6-7ish as long as I'm up there by then(traffic from Kentucky rush hour 🤦) ------------- Pos68 68 javelin, 79 amx, and 71 javelin |

I just wanted to hop on here real quick to thank everyone that came out today. Awesome turnout for the heat and was great to see everyone. If anyone gots any feed back on this year(good or bad) please comment below. I think mostly everyone probably saw major improvements over what I learned last year and hope to continue making it better every year. I'll post all results later this weekend.
