    Default Memorial Monster at CMP

    The Central Carolinas Region will bring you the Memorial Monster at Carolina Motorsports Park on Memorial Day weekend. It will bring SARRC and CCPS races for the weekend along with both a time trial and an autocross on Memorial Day Monday (in conjunction with South Carolina Region).
    If you know folks who do F&C or if YOU can't afford to race and still want to go to the track, remember that the CCR pays for double-occupancy rooms at the Colony Inn in Camden and provides lunches on Saturday and Sunday for workers. There is even a rumor about discounted track time in the time trial or autocross on Monday!! Check the CCR site for details.

    quick link to registration. CCPS race will be before quiet hour on Sunday so you are not last race of the day for once. Gives you time to prep and get ready for afternoon race. Would any of you on the other forums please cross post the link. Had a real bear getting this race open so no late fees unless you wait until you get to the track. Might even be nice there if you have a good story This is a double SARRC/Double CCPS. Thanks.

    DLB has a fine product, but you might want to switch to motorsportreg.com. Many are. We did last year and never looked back.

    In the supps they mentioned that SARRC points are not accumulated. Please tell me what that means.
    thanks

    SARRC points are not accumulated for the CCPS which are treated as restricted regionals. This is a Double SARRC and points are awarded. I thought us lazy drivers never read the Supps. No worries. As far as motorsports reg, still not to happy about their fee structure and how they treat withdrawn entries. Gets real expensive quick and we worked hard to not go up from last years price. I will not do anything that costs the racers more money, too tough to afford this already.

    I will agree that withdawn entries are costly. Since most drivers do not realize the cost the region incurrs when someone withdraws (if they paid with a credit card) maybe a fee to cover it is needed.

    I just encourage them to pay with a check. In the long run it does keep the races cheaper. We don't cash until after the event so it works fine.

    Steve,
    thanks for the clarification, that is what I had thought, but just wanted to be sure.

    I have had several calls from some competitors trying to just sign up for CCPS. Most are unaware that there is a second link on the DBL calendar if you just want CCPS.
    Here are the direct links to get you signed up.
    Happy Racing!

    Big thanks to everyone who came out and supported our race at CMP. Worker turnout was unbelievable with lots of new faces. What a great group !! Good close racing with some big groups. You all need to ask ITAC member Jeff Young about his new rain setup. That TR8 is wicked fast now with a new fuel injected motor and Jeff is on his game. Anyone have some Brembo's they would lend him? Most of the usual SE suspects were there and ITR better be ready for Kip V in his Porsche, he won overall in the Production group.

    Fuel Injection is AWESOME, ain't it Jeff?! I wish I could a made it, but the Honda is still recovering from the Mothers day event. We just got it back from the frame shop, but still have to come up with a way to slow the car down better in the corners.

    Jeff, I expect to hear some stories. Did you replace all that Lucas junk w "quality" Bosch products?

    As always, had a lot of fun at CMP on Memorial Day, thanks to CCR for putting on a great event.....

    The car and the new motor is getting there, still have some sorting to do, but things look promising. Just need to learn I can't follow Mr. Eckerich deep into a braking a zone!

    See you guys at the track.....
