I don't really have a dog in this fight as I may not be able to make the 8 hour tow, but I would not even consider it unless it was a double SARRC.

Thanks Paul.

I figured that would be the case for most folks looking at towing more than 3-4 hours.

Don't worry, we could never pay the rent for less than a good Double SARRC.

[JeffYoung]

That's kind of what I thought, although to satisfy the CCPS guys, I do think a double CCPS is possible as well.

The SARRC is the premiere road racing series in the Southeast. I can't believe there is anyway to get the entries we need to pay for this OTHER than a double SARRC. Single SARRCs at VIR in March and October with CCPS events are usually fairly poorly attended.

Looking at a time line I think we can run the CCPS cars with their regular SARRC group to qualify. would allow time for a CCPS and a 1.5 hour ECR. I will have the time sheet to look at Monday. Possibly run the ECR Saturday night and the CCPS first thing Sunday. Have to get creative to fit everyone in. If we get the support this race will be a fixture on the schedule in the future.

[JeffYoung]

Works for me.

I totally agree with the potential for this race. I've run Daytona, and I've run Charlotte. They are different, but both are awesome.

We had something like 20 ITS cars the last SARRC race at Charlotte. I am pretty sure we could draw that again; the big ovals draw the higher power cars (I ran against 35 ITS cars when I went to Daytona).

Just need to keep the eye on the ball, which is what makes this a premiere event (like any other on the SEDiv schedule) is a Double SARRC.
