May 2nd NER Opening Day Regional

[StephenB]

Hello fellow IT drivers! I know that several of the drivers from NER lurk here and I was wondering if you would support the proposed idea of grouping together all cars from group 3 and group 8 together. That would be all IT cars including IT7, A,B,C,S,R and SS/ T3. Total that is currently only 19 cars on a track that is long enough to support 36. By doing this the region could provide more track time and more exciting racing on the track for both the drivers and the workers.

Thoughts...

PS: I know we rag on miatas but so far they make up 22 of the 66 entries this weekend!

With car counts the way they are, fine w/ me.

Split start perhaps or an understanding of who cares if they race in or out of class? I don't care who I race against as long as there aren't hard feelings afterwards that the person I was racing was not in my class.

More track time may provide the value you need to see some increased entires. A non-NARRC single will be low in car count.

Any know how many are signed up for the school?

So few I was going to suggest to the chief instructor it might be good to combine the closed wheel groups as the day progresses. Its going to be hard to teach people how to pass when there are only a few cars on track.

I think when I looked last night it was about 18 total.

Should we add the extra time to that run group, making a 40 minute race(+or-) or add 5 minutes to each run group?
