Club Race at Road Atlanta with VDCA

[Kevlar]

Saturday February 20 through Sunday February 21, 2010: Sponsoring Chapter: Peachtree Chapter
Please join the Peachtree Chapter BMW CCA for our first race-only event, with our hosts, VDCA (a vintage racing group). Those of you who have participated in Tar Heel chapter Club Races will be very familiar with the excellent organization and camaraderie of the VDCA folks.

For our local competitors, it's an early-season chance to scrape the rust off and test out all those improvements you've made over the winter. For our snow-bound friends from up north, it may not be sunny and warm, but odds are we won't be racing in the snow.

The temperature averages for the weekend are 57/34, but no promises of nice weather are expressed or implied!

As is done with Tar Heel, we are organized as a run group within the vintage event weekend.

Schedule
Both Saturday and Sunday's schedule will include practice, qualifying, and 40-minute (first car on to last car off) sprint races, with a total of 3 hours of track time for the weekend.

The tentative schedule has Saturday's race in mid-afternoon, and Sunday's racing concluded by about 4:00pm.

Tire Service
At this point, we are not expecting to have Tire Service available.

Annual Tech
Pay particular attention to your annual tech process. In particular, for those racing under SpecE30, the NASA tech is only good for a calendar year, so it is imperative that you obtain your 2010 NASA tech prior to the race weekend. I'm not familiar with SCCA rules but the same caution applies. Also note that starting this year, window and center nets have a date-limited life, so yours may be out of compliance.

The CCA steward is not prepared to conduct annual tech inspections, except by prior arrangement/appointment.

Registrar Information
Our registrar is Patty Sledge, and she can be reached via email, at patty@peachtreebmwcca.org

Saturday Night Party
Plan to stick around Saturday night for Mexican food, beer and soft drinks. Yes, we will get out of the cold, as Dick Barbour is graciously opening his shop next to the track for us.

Quantities will be limited, so we are restricting this to a maximum of driver and one crew member, please.
