its that season again; race season!!!!


March 23 will be in Dayton, TN. This event will be a little different than what we have done in the past.

ONLINE REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!!!! Go here: http://www.ecors.com/race/dayton-tennessee/

ECORS makes its 2013 debut at a completely new venue for us in Dayton, TN!!!
This venue offers fantastic spectator areas that are VERY easy to get to and where you can see a big majority of the course! This venue has been hosting 4×4 events for years but this will be the first endurance type event at the facility. There are fantastic rocks and wide open, rolling hills for the teams that are set up for speed! This course will test both the speed and rock crawling abilities of every team!

Schedule:
Friday, March 22
•Racer check in starts at 9am on site
•Tech Inspection opens at 9am, closes at 6pm
•Pre running for all classes, 10am until 6pm
•Qualifying from 6pm until 10pm

Saturday, March 23
•Meet the drivers, 10am until 11am
•UTV, Stock Class, Modified Stock Class race staging at 11am, starts at 11:30am, ends at 3:30pm
•Modified and Unlimited class staging at 4pm, race starts at 4:30pm, ends at 9pm
•Awards ceremony at 10pm, then bonfire and afterparty!

We will be on site on Thursday and access to the facility will be open to race teams Thursday afternoon. Tech inspections on Thursday are by appointment only. Tech Inspections on Saturday are by appointment only.
Admission for spectators is $15/day. Kids 8 and under are free!
Camping is available for spectators and racers. Tent spots are $5 each per night, RV spots are $10 each per night. No hookups.
Food vendors will be on site (including beer!)

For "Meet the Drivers", everyone should pull their rig up to the course in front of the rocks by the spectator areas. This is here to promote the drivers and give the spectators a chance to mingle with the teams and ask questions, etc. We ask that everyone participate in this. While there is no penalty for not participating, it is part of the weekend for you and spectators.

Tech Inspection times are published. We will have someone dedicated to this during this time. If you wish to go through inspection early or are late and need to go through tech later than the published times, you will need to schedule this in advance. Tech Inspections outside of the published times are $50. This is not a penalty but meerly put in place to encourage teams to go through tech as scheduled. If we need to break from our schedule from doing other things, then it slows us down and causes us additional costs. So, $50 for tech inspections early or late. Remember, you are REQUIRED to go through tech prior to qualifying.

Qualifying is REQUIRED. You will get 2 qualifying runs. You must run at least 1 of the 2 runs for each class you are registered in (if you register for 2 classes, you must run at least 1 qualifying run for each class). Your best time between the 2 runs will determine your start position. If you are not a season member, you will start behind all of the members regardless of qualifying time. But, your start position in relation to other non-season members will be determined by your qualifying time. If you miss qualifying, you will start behind everyone and will be assessed a 15 minute penalty on race day.

We will have lights on site to illuminate the rock section of course at night! Racers need to be prepared with proper lights on rigs for the course in the woods and pit support!

Address of the venue is:
35 Pitts Gap Rd.
Graysville, TN

Registration will open Feb. 23, 2013 for race teams. Team membership registration is currently open at www.ecors.com. If your racing for points, you need to have your team membership registration completed prior to signing up for this race!

For the first 2 weeks, race entry fees will remain constant. After 2 weeks, entry fees will raise by 10% each week until the race. Race registration on site will incur a $20 late registration fee in addition to normal entry fees. Payouts will be determined by the payout table on the ECORS website. Stock class is a TROPHY class only! There will be no prize $. Trophies and sponsor prizes will still be awarded to the top finishers.

This will be the first real endurance event in the area, so lets give the locals a good show and have some fun!!!


We have 200 posters out and over 5,000 flyers out in the area as well as TV commercials that will start on March 11!!!

The crowd should be massive! (I hope laughing1 )
 
No I have not sent out any membership packets. Those won't go out until about 2 weeks prior
 
Time is getting close!!!!

Set up the course this past weekend and it measures out to a little over 4 miles! Should be tons of fun and if you like a challenge, you won't be dissapointed!!! Especially in Modified and Unlimited classes!!!


BTW, its Julia Kizzar's birthday, so lets show her great support and come out to celebrate her birthday with great racing action!!!
 
Had planned to co drive for 5 Brothers, but that ain't happening yet. If I don't have to work Saturday I'd like to come down and watch the race.
 
Looks like a pretty good turnout so far

Class C Unlimited, 9 signed up already
Class B Modified, 6 signed up already
Class A Modified Stock , 14 already signed up


The last week or 2 there is usually a lot of additions as well as on-site sign ups


Should be fun!!!
 
Actual numbers will vary as we usually have a couple of no-shows. But, I know of about 3-4 Class C guys that have committed but haven't signed up.
 
Qualifying is Friday night for all classes from 6-10pm under the lights! There should be a good crowd there to put on a show for!


Also, for the fastest lap during qualifying, the winner in each class will win a free race entry into any future 2013 race!


Go fast and win!!! booyang
