The second double race event for the Sportsracer Challenge series will be held this weekend at High Plains. It should be a great event.
Just as rounds 1 & 2 were run, rounds 3 & 4 will be run within the "Wings and Things" race group but will utilize a separate split start and trophies.
Contingency will be available from Mazda ($500 to win) and Hoosier (2 tires to the winner) in addition to some serious brow beating/ridiculing Saturday evening at the KC Racing Hospitality trailer provided by Chris Funk and Kelly Toombs - owners of KC Racing.
There has been a lot of talk about the need for a class of real sports racers where the driver makes the difference and the car has low operating costs, high resale value, and simple maintainance. This is the place!
In addition to the race we hope to use this event as an organizational meeting of interested parties. The primary topic - how many events for 2013 and what tracks (If you are not local to the Midwest, have no fear, we are very open to taking our core group on the road in return for a good race and some new faces).
While the Sportsracer Challenge series for the SCCA Enterprise Sports Racer is my concept, it is designed in a manner that can be duplicated anywhere within the SCCA system. We are following the SCCA rulebook, participating in SCCA events, and utilizing SCCA event personel. I am simply the organizer/cheerleader/abuse taker/spokesman for the group.
If you are interested feel free to contact me, your local CSR for SCCA Enterprises or any of the drivers/teams listed below. If you are in the area, please come by at High Plains and try one of the cars on for size (used car salesman smile inserted here). I think you will like what you see!
