Just a note to get the (early) word out that the Cincinnati SCCA Region's IT Spec*tacular is again scheduled for July 30-31 at Mid Ohio. Last year entries came from 21 states and the SM field was both large and very competitive.

As was the case in 2010, SM's will have thier own race group. Even if you aren't tempted to make the haul just to get some pre NASA nationals practice, put it on your race calender simply because it's a first class race weekend!

Hi everyone,

The race groups are set for the I.T.SPEC*tacular. I do hope the separation I put between SM/ITS & SM/ITA is enough turnaround time to allow those wishing to run in two classes to do so.

1. ITS, ITC
2. CFC, FC, FE, FM, S2000, CSR, DSR
3. ITR, ITE, STU, STL
4. SM
5. SRF, EP, FP, HP
6. F500, FV, FST, CFF, FF
7. ITA, IT7, ITB

Using the Pro Straight and the Pro Start Stand. Everything pro.

Todd Cholmondeley
Race Chairman.

Our own run group. Awesome and enticing. I currently do not have this race on my list for 2011 because Grattan is the week before. Why does our region do this - back to back weekends? And both of these are Champs series. I just don't think I can convince the family to do back to back weekends. I absolutely love racing at Grattan, but I also love racing the I.T. Spectacular. I hate this decision. Stupid regional schedule. :(

Sorry Keith,

The GLD Regional Champ Series has 22 races scheduled for SM this season. There are bound to be some back-to-back. Just buck down and bring the family out and have some fun. That's really what this is all about - quality time with your track and natural families.

One week until registration closes and we have 19 SM registered. And I still have yet to confirm this but I'm putting it on the table. Fat Cat Motors has offered up a Fat Cat SM suspension Kit to the highest placing "non Fat Cat equipped" SM in the overall weekend championship. All indications are that this is a done deal. :D

Looks to be a fun weekend shaping up. I am in Garage #2 if anyone is walking by and wants to say Hi.

Why did they cancel the time trial thing on Saturday, I had two guys coming up to hang to to do that. They should just open it up for track time and let those or other just drive. they would have paid the money???
