Hey

I'm involved with running an invitational karting event at Grand Prix New York this Sunday. We have some seats still available, so I wanted to pass the information on to everyone. If you are interested, please contact me, or Stan Marcewicz: sjmarcy@aol.com

Thanks,

G.J.

Location:
Grand Prix New York

Race Format:

26 Racers in total, Qualifying order will be a random drawing. Each group of 13 drivers will have 2 qualifying races.

All racers will be weighed and balasted correctly to make the racing more fair for everyone.

There will be 2 qualifying races:
1- 10 minute qualifying race on Uptown
and
1- 10 minute qualifying race on Downtown

Your Fastest Lap from each qualfying session will be added together to determine the starting grid for the main races.

15 minute break between Qualifying and the Main

There will be an A Main group and B Main group.

There will be 2 Main races
1- 15 minute Main on Uptown backwards
and
1- 15 minute Main on Downtown Backwards

Each Main race you earn points on finishing position. The number of points you receive is equal to the position you finish in. The overall winner will be determined by who has the least amount of points at the end of both races. If there is a tie, it will be based on qualifying position.

Expected finishing time will be around 11:30 am- 12:00 pm

rallyx spec racing!

hugo wants to get in on the rallyx action and doesn't have a car.. so he's going to rent one for this sunday. probably a cobalt/focus or whatever they have for cheap.

then we got to thinking - maybe a bunch of guys should all rent the same cars, pile a bunch of drivers in each (3 drivers is doable) and have a spec rallyx showdown.

i don't know how we'd explain the mud when returning the cars but i'm sure we could come up with something good. haha.

rallyx sunday!

rallyx this sunday with pscc up at greigs farm in redhook ny.
