Default Who says Corvette racing season is over?!?

Atco Sunday 11/28

Corvette club wars.
Bracket racing for trophies and cash.

Gates open at 10 am.

Not sure why they call it club wars. No clubs are sponsoring or affiliated with it that I know of.

I hope to see a lot of you northeast guys there.

Payouts are listed here.

In the past, they have shown an event on the website, but it was nothing more than a T&T. This is the first time they are actually having a bracket race specifically for the Corvettes.

Maybe there's a car out there somewhere with no driver?
It says $40.00 to enter for both a car + a driver...let's say that just the car (or just the driver for that matter) wants to enter individually, is it only $20.00 then?

With the amount of smoke on your last past that I was filming, followed by the track crew looking to see if a cleanup was needed, I hope she doesn't need any major surgery

... Mine is currently in intensive care
