Carolina Class Racers Association

A couple of tech items that we addressed were heads up runs and the weighing of cars. Due to us not having funds to pay for a tech person and most tracks not having scales on site, we are going to run the first season w/out heads up runs. That's not to say it won't change in the future as our membership grows we can put this up for a vote. Also, it was decided that if you have a bye run you will not be required to make the run or take the tree. As Michael said, everything is not set in stone we still have to finish the schedule and talk to a couple of the tracks to see if they are interested in having us. One thing is certain, the four dates are set at Roxboro and there will be 8 events total. Beard...nice job on the recap and thanks for the effort and input everyone made at the meeting today. A special thanks to Cliff Porterfield who attended on behalf of Roxboro Motorsports to show their continued support of stock and superstock racing.

100% to Roxboro, and yes Cliff and I have talked since October on aligning schedules up. Now that we arent involved with Piedmont its good to see Piedmont and Roxboro working together. But more importanly the biggest race as far as History goes in NC is the Easter Race at Roxboro and its glad to see Stock SS being run then. Thanks again Cliff.

Great job Beard on posting everything that was discussed. Now that we have made a huge first step in putting this series together, it's up to us, the racers to make sure that this is a success. We need your support in attendance, suggestions and getting the word out about the "Carolina Class Racers Association". This is a great opportunity for us to put Class racing back in the hands of the racers and determine our own fate. Thanks to Tracy, Herb Jr., and Micheal Beard for the work they have done. And a huge thanks to Roxboro for supporting the class racers and giving us a place to run since 2005.

Hey folks... I have an interim website up and running. Norton and I will be putting our heads together on updating and maintaining the site, and possibly getting its own domain.
