Just 4 more weeks until the green flag flys at Spokane County Raceway.
Last year, with over 450 entries, Spokane was the ICSCC's largest race weekend.
All but one Class Champion raced at Spokane, along with more Championship qualifiers than any other event.
Spokane fielded the largest group 3 race in 2011.
At $425.00/585.00 race entry and $185.00 novice entry we are the lowest cost racing in the Northwest.
Free Pizza, free beer, and a band.
Start/Finish has been moved and there is now over 800 feet of line of sight from the exit of turn 9 to S/F.
NWMS has been working closely with the new track management. We have purchased, or have had donated 190 barriers, the majority of which have been painted (thanks SOVREN EAST) and permanently placed so we are no longer faced with a pre/post-race construction project. In addition the County has constructed a new storage building and sewer system. The new sewage system necessitated ripping up some of the paddock and replacing it with new tarmack. This along with the new managements efforts to patch the existing pavement has resulted in about a 80% reduction of those lovely holes in our paddock and pregrid.
We are expecting a fair number of racers from Calgary this year as Race City closed in 2011, so there should be some new faces and cars to compete against.
Finally we will continue to offer a "Special Race" format that anyone car can enter and anyone can win. This years Hare and Hound (Australian Pursuit Race) will feature a standing stage start with seperate races for open and closed wheel groups........and I may even have a couple more Rolexeees up my sleeve for the winners.
