Kind of strange that the season will end in August this year.

Absolutely... Now the CC doesn't conflict with the WCF in November, or the LSX shoot out, Holley LS Fest, and I'm sure there are other races as well.

There is lots of racing other than the CC and EFI

Well from what I'm reading very few of you racers will make the "Full Schedule" ... .. I think I have only missed two races since 1999 (one when my son passed away & I forget the 2nd) so if I make ALL the races I may be looking good for a championship

I agree its not the best schedule but IMO its better than NO SCHEDULE !


As of now I think.hope to be able to make all the CC races this season, and for sure will rave in more than a few EFI races..

The way I look at it I may not be around too many more racing seasons.. or if I am I may not be "competitive" enough to be in the top 10.. & if I cant make the top 10 I'll spectate...

Okay folks, we now have some answers to some of the questions here.

No warmup race
10 race dates (all for points) 1 Top 16 date for prior year Top 16 point earners for brackets
Raceway Park did give us two race drops. So for the championships, drop 2, ( 8 of 10)
Point system change for Index, racers

Please see official announcement
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/drag...ts-update.html
which will lead you to the detail.
