All points events, or a couple just for fun?

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

First: We need to offer Fred a public thank you for the efforts and time that he has put in to get the schedule done. I can not imagine a more fresh level of hell than having to go back and forth with track managers, several sanctioning bodies schedules, and trying to have as many of us racers be happy with the results as possible. A tall task indeed. Thank you Fred, I think this is going to be the most interesting season in years.
Second: Many of you have been " asking " for it, and now we got it. The date is set, we are going to Empire. Now lets do our part as racers and come out to support this race, so it can happen again next year.
And C: As far as I have been informed ( and Fred can be the official voice on this ), ALL races this season will be both for points.....and fun.

Well said!!!

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

EMPIRE !!! right on !

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

Great to see a S/SS event come back to Western NY! Unfortunately, it looks like this may conflict with the Cecil County Lucas Oil Race.

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

Glad to see Empire on the schedule!

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

so bob I know your like cicel co. you;ll most likely go there?

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

Thank you Fred, and all involved. Lools like a great year a head of us. It better start warming up outside for may racing

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

Thanks for the kind words, Frank and all.

Scheduling without conflicts is an impossible deal, but
the main goal re Empire was to involve as many western NY area cars without conflicting with Pittsburg.
Of coarse, you have to fit in to the track owner's schedule too.

Going to be fun to return to Empire. I personally have some great memories of racing there.

And, yes, all 12 races will be points races.

Re: 2014 Race Schedule

Thanks,

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

Hi John,
We would be really happy to have you come race with us in Can - Am. You do not need to be a member to come race with us, BUT if you did join, you are guaranteed to receive MORE than the value of your membership in prizes and merchandise. There is not scales or fuel check ( we ask and trust everyone to keep the spirit of class racing in mind, and run your combination legal ). You must be able to dial your claimed class index or faster in eliminations, NO heads up runs. And you have to be ready to have a great time.
Hope to see you at the track, stop in and say hi. Always happy to meet another Crate motor racer.

John , You will like it .

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

I am planning on going to the Empire race, as my daughter has moved to Cazenovia,N.Y.and I hate the ride home from Cicil. Also plan on running ESTA on Sept.28. Looking forward to going to a couple of tracks I've never run and meeting new racers.

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

Joe - you would drive to Cecil Cty for the divisional with w/ a race like this in your back yard? Just curious - I'm not knocking the points meet - but I see it as a great alternative.
Like Lee said - might be nice to try something different.

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

I plan on attending the race at Empire. What is the entry fee? Payouts? etc....

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

Hi,
Entry is $100, and 100% of entry $ is payed out. If you go to the series web site, or Smith Performance, Fred can run you through the entire payout. Look forward to having you come race with us.

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

$100 plus the gate fees!

Re: 2014 Race Schedule
 

I agree, we need to support these events and the local tracks. I hope to make the short trip down from Rochester...most likely as a spectator, we're sidelined for the time being.

The ESTA race in September doesn't get much love for the $1500/win. As much as I like the idea of having to only worry about 4 rounds of racing (given previous car counts), it would be great to see a bigger turnout there as well. I'd recommend checking it out.

Looking forward to some local racing.
