Starting a new Regional CFC Class???
Does anyone have experience soliciting their local Regional SCCA to add a CFC class? Maybe it would give the guys sitting on some older FCs a reason to bring them out if they weren't having to be scored against the modern Zetec cars...
CFF sure seems to be working in some Regions, looking into this idea for SFR specifically.
Collecting FC names for California
OK, the 2017 season is starting, and it's time to step up. I'm going to start collecting a list of older FC car owners, specifically in the NorCal/SF Bay Area, but hopefully throughout the whole SouthWest. Feel free to use this thread, or PM me, or write me at troytinsley@gmail.com if you're interested.
I'll be racing my '93 VD with SFR SCCA, Pacific F2000 in their new Pinto Class, and with VARA in vintage trim. My multi-year goal is to get enough older FCs interested in coming out to the races that we can eventually start a CFC Class to run in Group 4 of SFR, and run with FC/CF/FF. Once we have a few committed crazies, I'll step up with some trophy money and proposed rules. Something like a 1175# min and a mid-90's cutoff date (since the SCCA Zetecs are 1200#, and the late 90's VDs went to the stressed member engine chassis design). Hopefully this interest will spill over into the West Coast vintage scene where the Wings & Slick Classes gladly accept my RF93 running in vintage trim.
If I get my motor in, I'll be at the SFR opener at Thunderhill next week. I'll be at Willow Springs with VARA later this month, and with Pacific F2000/Cal Club at Buttonwillow in April. Track me down for some stickers and a beer.
