    $250 for the 2 day event, and if drivers want to share a car and only run one day each they can pay $150. We do allow 2 driver cars as normal and put them in seperate groups so they get all their runs. Number of runs is dependent on if drivers stay on course and don't break. I have seen drivers get 21 runs in a weekend and some get as few as 5 when weather was bad. By Sunday after lunch you usually can run as fast as you get down the mountain and get back in the staging area. No scales, no impound, just come let it all hang out!! We do have one steward who brings a good book and a comfortable sleeping chair.

    I would guess the cage in a chump is at least IT min? We will run a chump class if you want Mike, just come have some fun. Drop me a pm with your contact info and we will get you fixed up. I will give you a call.

    Chump cages allow tabs inside the sills. Much stronger than IT rules, closer to Prod rules.

    Just a reminder... the hillclimb is June 22-23 in Robbinsville, NC. We have 83 ENTRIES... that is the largest hillclimb in the Southeast since the last Chimney Rock in 1995! The variety of cars running include a Legends car, a Jaguar XKE, a McLaren MB1 Can Am car, several hillclimb specials, a drift car, Porsche 914/6 and a Lancia Delta Integrale Rally car in Martini & Rossi livery!

    Toyo is sponsoring the event and offering trophies and prize money of $150 to First place and $45 to Second place. We are expecting 3000 + spectators and the locals are thrilled to have the Hillclimbers in town. Come up and see what the excitement is all about... hillclimb offers a unique motorsports competition! We'd be glad to have you with us! Thanks
