Again, thank you all for your support! See you next season!

Several local ENDURO drivers want one more shot. We have to have 30-35 PRE-ENTERED cars by October 1st, 2011.

Pre-entry - $30. Gate Entry - $50.00. If you are a driver, let us know here if you are pre-entering so we have an idea before our next meeting.

It will be $1000 to win as previous ENDUROS. Fans? We want to hear! Fans?? Dr Doom??

Keep in mind that f we do not reach our goal, all pre-entry fees will be returned. $30.00 to IRRA, PO Box 386, Hibbing, MN 55746. Thank you.
