Also, go to miatachallenge.com for rules. There will be a ECMC page coming soon on the miatachallenge.com website. emraracing.org will also have info. You can check out there time trial schedule for the ECMC dates this year. or you can shoot me an email at philstireservice@aol.com, and I'll give all the info I have. |
Hot Damn! I've been wanting for something like this to come to this part of the country.....I'm not really into the autocross thing, but getting out on a track would be a blast (Always wanted to get on limerock). How much does it cost to participate in the events?
|
Interesting. This may give me the incentive I needed to choose track or auto-x as my primary direction.

Are you going to just drive there in your car?? Thats the only thing I'm now contimplating. I almost want to hold of until I can get a trailer and something to tow it with. I'd hate to drive to the track and then have to worry about getting the car home after something breaks (Which you know will happen :vash:) I'll go and be a spectator this year though just to see what its all about ;)
One of my new years resolutions is to take the car to events this year. Whether it be autox, lime rock, shows, whatever. I just need to start using the car for what its made for. |

FRCCA WILL BE BRINGING A NUMBER OF OPEN WHEEL CARS TO OUR EVENTS THEREBY INCREASING BOTH OF OUR ENTRANTS IN OPEN WHEEL. WE WERE ABLE TO ADD A SECOND CLOSED WHEEL RACE TO THE NOVEMBER RACE WEEKEND BUT DUE TO TIME CONSTRAINTS COULD NOT ADD ANY OTHERS. EVENT COSTS WILL BE THE SAME FOR MOST EVENTS AS LAST YEAR, WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS. WE WILL POST THOSE ASAP. JUST WANTED TO UPDATE EVERYONE AS TO WHERE WE WERE. STILL WAITING FOR POCONO'S DECISION TO ONLY SELL US SATURDAY. UNFORTUNATELY IT IS OUR FIRST EVENT. |
Too bad June 19 at Monti was canceled. Any idea what the issue was there?
I will 95% sure be at the LRP event July 9. To those guys worried about trailering to the event, don't. Just drive it. If I trailer it will only be because I can't find the right fuel, if I can carry 20 gallons of E85 I'll drive it. |

Any of you NoVa guys looking to do the Summit or NJMP rounds? Both look to be within 2-2 1/2 hours from DC.
