Please, only one topic for the RRC discussion!!!!

FYI:

There are 12 AM/EX Pre-entries for the RRC race at OHR.
I'd be curious to see how many people sign up for practice only?

Hmm... although 3 races do make up 75% of the championship, I understand where you're coming from. Still, with a class the like GT/RRC, participation is THAT much more important. With a lot fewer races, one hardly has any room for error, so to me this makes each race extra critical and an added challenge if you want to have a solid end-of-year showing. Maybe this is one reason why numbers are down??

To be able to get it done for a race that is basically three non-stop Sprint races is hard business (as I'm sure you'll recall). Yeah, bigger grids are better for everyone, but I don't think that anyone should discount their GT championship.

Does this mean that the RRC trophies will be made of "genuine corinthian leather"?? [img]/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]

Jeff I think Brooks used to pit during his GT races to rest and refuel his little motard! :p

MacMan, I suspect the refund policy discourages some from pre-entering the RRC even though they pre-enter other races and plan on running the RRC - or that might just be me? [img]/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]

I predict that the OHR RRC entries will be on par with the opening OHR weekend RRC entries, by at least the same ratio of sprint riders entering this weekend vs. opening weekend! Ya know, back to the ol' RRC races do well on non-endurance weekends! (here's your chance to get a little of your cash back from previous wagers if ya like?!)
