The Jersey Racing Board received considerable positive comment from the two Jersey Touring Car Challenge races held this year and has decided to offer an extended series for the JTCC at major tracks in the Northeast.

The rules for next year's series will retain the same three touring car classes incorporating a wide variety of compatible SCCA and NASA prepared cars. There will be minor additions to reflect the 2013 revision of the SCCA touring class rules. The complete ruleset will be published in January.

Preliminary 2013 Jersey Touring Car Challenge schedule

- 11-12 May - Pocono

- 25-26 May - Watkins Glen

- 13-14 July - NJMP Thunderbolt w/SVRA

- 11 August - Pocono

- 5-6 October - Watkins Glen

- 19-20 October - NJMP Thunderbolt

The format of these events will be the same as last year - race one day of the weekend with a twenty minute qualifying session in the morning and a forty minute race in the same afternoon. The weekends with two dates listed above indicate that the organizer has not yet completed planning for the weekend schedule. There will also be opportunities to race in the primary regional or national event at most races. The final schedule will be published early in the year when the scheduling details become available.

I hope to see ya at a JTCC race in 2013
