SWRC 3&4

[Matt Stephenson]

Couple questions for you guys,

1: Who will be in S2 for SWRC?

2: what is done differently for these races? fuel, oil, tire regs? what time does qual start? Rental transponders still?

THX!!!

MG yellows are the spec tyre. The same tyres must be used all weekend & will be marked after qualifying on Saturday.

A free race entry will be given away at the driver's meeting each day the entry count is 50 or more.

There will be a drawing for 4 free hotel room certificates for drivers staying at the host hotel Holiday Inn Express which is a new hotel & the closest one to the track.

Maybe other shifter kart drivers that are racing the NTK SWRC event will post here.

Awesome! THX!

Hey Matt,

I will be racing in S2 for both days. We had 12 people in S2 for SWRC 1&2, but there are several people who are not running a full season. There will probably be 4-6 guys running the full schedule plus other drivers running select races. I would expect 5-8 drivers in S2 including you and I.

You can still rent a transponder. For the shifter class, you are required to run the same tires for both race days (you can run whatever you want for practice though). Unless we have drastic tire wear issues, this will be the case. Yaani-Mai pretty much covered all of it. Hope to see you there.

Thanks all for the info!

Im glad to hear an estimate in the 8 ish range, that should make it quite fun.
