I'm posting this for Dick Boggs...
The inaugural "Jack Brabham Memorial Grand Prix".
Everyone open wheel and sports racer
IRDC on April 18-19 at the Ridge, has scheduled a Test and Tune and School on Saturday and 6 hour Enduro on Sunday. In an attempt to encourage sports racer and open wheel participation we have scheduled a special non points fun race for them prior to the start of the Enduro. The planning is still in the early stages but we are thinking of perhaps 30-60 minute race with a mandatory pit stop in the middle of 10 minutes. These are the scenarios we are looking at and need your feed back:
30 minute standard race, for those with limited fuel capacity
20 min.race 10 min. mandatory stop 20 min. race, Possible to share your car with another driver and fuel up.
30 min. race 10 min. mandatory stop, 30 min. race. Possible to share your car with another driver and fuel up and get the most bang for the buck
We are looking at an entry fee of $199.00, test and tune on Saturday $180.00.
The purpose is to give us a chance to get a jump start on the season and get the comb webs out of our driving brains and resolve any issues with our cars. I need a commitment from 6 people to make it a go or it will not be scheduled. I see it as a great opportunity to promote both open wheel and sports racer classes and the Ridge is a great place to do it.
