S3 Winter Karting Series at Kart2Kart - schedule

SpeedStyleSound · 10-26-2004, 03:38 PM

Our annual S3 Winter Karting Series schedule has been set for this year.

When: The following Wednesdays, 7-9pm (be there at 7pm sharp!)
Dec 8
Jan 5
Jan 19
Feb 2
Feb 16
Mar 2
Mar 16
Mar 30

Location: Kart2Kart, near SW corner of 19 Mile Rd and Van Dyke. www.kart2kart.com (586) 997-8800.

Cost: $41 includes everything you need to race - helmet, neck collar, etc.

Format: TWO 8-10 minute qualifying sessions, ONE 8-10 minute race. Races are broken up into groups based on best lap in qualifying.

Anyone is welcome, bring a friend! In past years we have had 40+ racers per event, consisting of experienced pros through rookies - both male and female. With our format, you are sure to have someone to race with no matter how fast or slow you are.

Points: Points will be awarded NASCAR style (the only system that awards points far enough down the list). There are 8 race dates - your points total will include your best 6. This allows you to miss up to 2 events without being penalized by work, spouse, kids, and/or other pesky committments. You do not need to run for the points if you don't want to - just show up and have fun when your schedule permits.

Awards: The final event will feature an awards ceremony along with pizza/pop for all participants. Awards for the top 5 will consist of trophies and other prizes courtesy of S3 partners/sponsors/advertisers. This year we have some really cool stuff.

Driving Courtesy: For the most part everyone is well behaved on-track. While this is a "fun" series, we do strongly discourage rough driving, putting people in the wall, and the bump pass. If you're going to try a pass, make it CLEAN.

Ionchick · 12-08-2004, 11:00 PM

hey...is the cost $41 each time you attend? Or just a one time registeration fee?

SpeedStyleSound · 12-09-2004, 10:34 AM

$41 each time. Great deal compared to normal pricing.

We had 54 people last night, including 12 in the "heavyweight" 200+ class.

It's turning into a who's who of the automotive industry: S3, Autoweek, GM Performance Division, Dodge, Cosworth, etc. all had representatives.
