FROM SCOTT "TEX" GRAHAM:
The Points System for Major League of Mud has been set & will be
as follows:
1st Place = 100 points
2nd Place = 95 points
3rd Place = 90 points
4th Place = 85 points
5th Place = 80 points
6th Place = 75 points
7th Place = 70 points
8th Place = 65 points
9th Place = 60 points

Scratch = 0 points
There is no fee for joining the points series. Everyone who races will
receive points for their participation, and everyone will have the
opportunity to race for a championship. Your participation automatically
enters you into the points series. Points cannot be transferred to
another driver. Drivers racing multiple trucks within a single class
cannot transfer points from one truck to another in an effort to improve
their points position.
Classes in the points will be:
*38.5” Super Street (combination of Outlaw Mud “Stock” and “Super
Stock” classes).
*50” Renegade (combination of Outlaw Mud “Modified” and “Supermod”
classes).
*Open (combination of Outlaw Mud “Outlaw” and “Unlimited” classes).
Details about the classes will be forthcoming in another thread soon.
Race 1 will be July 9th & 10th in Hamilton, Missouri
with the rest of the schedule to follow. Some events may
feature additional classes (Hamilton will feature the entire Outlaw
program along with timed & elimination Fast Track racing), but these 3
classes will be the ones racing for points.
Full results will be published ASAP after each event along with the
current points standings. In addition, printed copies of the points
standings will be available at the driver’s meetings at each event
beginning with race #2.
See y’all in Hamilton July 9th and 10th!!!

LETS SAY $30 ENTRY FEE
LETS ALSO SAY 20 TRUCKS ENTERED-HERE IS A POSSIBLE PURSE BREAKDOWN FOR
RENEGADE
1ST 350
2ND 210
3RD 140
NOW TAKE THE ENTRY FEES AND BREAK IT DOWN LIKE THIS- 25%/15/10 THEN

SO NOW IM GONNA PAY OUT LIKE 8 PLACES IN THIS CLASS
1ST 500
2ND 300
3RD 200
4TH-8TH $60
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE FUN! I REALLY HOPE TO GET 20 PER CLASS TO START
THIS OFF TO MAKE THIS WORK GOOD AND ALSO TO KEEP IT UNDER THE 3-4 HOUR
TIMEFRAME THAT MANY FAIRS DESPARATELY WANT. HOPE YOU GUYS COME OUT TO
THE RACES WHEN WE GET THEM ALL PLANNED. ALSO HOPE TO HAVE A FEW TRUCKS
FROM EACH CLASS ON DISPLAY IN THE TRACK AREA BEFORE THE SHOW FOR PIT
PARTIES/MEET THE DRIVERS TYPE OF THING AND EVEN DO DRIVER INTROS FOR THE
TRUCKS ON DISPLAY. I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH TEX AND JASON ON THIS SERIES
TRYING TO GET IF OFF THE GROUND. HELL WE MIGHT EVEN TAKE IT A STEP
FURTHER AND EXPAND INTO HILL-N HOLE SOMEDAY. BUT FOR NOW THIS IS THE
MIND SET OF THE MAJOR LEAGUE OF MUD RACING. LOOKING TO CROWN A BOG
SERIES CHAMPION THIS YEAR- ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SHOW UP AND ENTER AND
RACE AND EARN POINTS WHICH TEX WILL TRACK AND POST HERE FOR ALL TO SEE.
LOOKS LIKE 3-5 SHOWS THIS FIRST YEAR. I HOPE YOU GUYS AND GALS WILL TRY
IT. I LOVE THE ALL NIGHTERS- BUT I WILL ALSO LOVE THESE HARD HITTING
SHORTER SHOWS. WITH THE SMALLER SCALE SHOW I CAN MAKE IT MORE ABOUT THE
RACERS AND THE TRUCKS AND DEVELOP A FAN BASE FOR EACH ONE AND THE SPORT.
AREAS WE ARE CURRENTLY LOOKING AT: into oklahoma were talking about dday
or miami,ok kansas badlands is the furthest west the rest will be close
to kc and the 1 or two in east mo- closer to mid missouri most likley.
this will be a good thing. a high impact shorter show with a good purse
and following.
we hope to grow this into a bigger series next year. right now working
on some more dates and a few heavy hitter sponsors. wont it be cool to
be the champ!!
FROM SCOTT LEMMON: GREAT THINGS IN THE WORKS!
Lots of great opportunities can come out of the Major League of Mud
Racing.
Nothing is going to be perfect. There is always going to be a rule
someone does not like. A location someone might not want to travel too.
The event dates, especially as things get started, may not be able to
layout all at one time. But there will be a lot of benefits to pushing
through the little stuff and looking at the bigger picture. And it is
free to join the League. No downside to that.
Dusty has been telling me about the concept for quite a long time. It
may be a little different of series than what everyone is use too, but
each idea really meets the need for an opportunity to take the sport to
new levels. A chance for safer shows, safer courses, bigger payouts,
more sponsors. Opportunities that can only exist with everyone's support
to push it forward. And there are already a lot of people working
together to make this happen. I know Tex has invested a lot of time as
well.
With support, I really think the Major League of Mud can grow into
something great. Great for the racers who want to participate and make
the sport better and better. Create more opportunties for the Major
League of Mud and even more importantly, more opportunities for racers
themselves individually.
Just like the USA Mud Racing Magazine.....in the end it is all about you
racers and fans and it only exists through your support. And you have
the power to make something really great!
