2011 Race At Charlotte Motor Speedway - Format?

[Ron Earp]

Earlier this year Jeff Young and I proposed that the NCR region co-sponsor a race with the CCR region at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Initially there was some resistance to the idea that was rooted in past experiences with the track and certain indivuals. However, CMS has new management and it appears that those issues have been resolved.

I’d like to get some feedback on the format of the race weekend. We had proposed to do a double SARRC race with the highlight of the weekend being a 1.5 hr ECR run under the lights. But, it appears that that was lost in translation and what appears on the NCR website is a single SARRC with a double Carolina Cup, no ECR at all.

Question, which would you, the racer, be more likely to attend and get fired up about? Yes, the race would be in August. Yes, it'll be hot.


Option A – Double SARRC with the ECR run on Saturday night under the lights

Option B – Single SARRC with a double Carolina Cup, probably one of which would run under the lights

Thanks much,
Ron

Any of the above sounds great to me, guys. You can count me as *very* interested but I might be marginally MORE interested if the enduro is longer rather than shorter.

If it's late enough that I have my license I'd like an enduro under the lights.

As Mr. Thompson wrote, let's throw that (C) out there too so we have:

Option A – Double SARRC with the ECR run on Saturday night under the lights

Option B – Single SARRC with a double Carolina Cup, probably one of which would run under the lights

Option C – Double SARRC with the Carolina Cup run on Saturday night under the lights

How about inviting the MARRS crowd down like in the '80s and '90s for a MARRS/SARRC shootout?

[SPiFF]

We do that at VIR in May.

Option B preferred, Option C next

Oh yes, almost forgot the obligatory '02 ECHC vid.
