Racing Questions:
1. Do you have an aptitude for going fast in your offroad vehicle?
2. Do you want to experience high speed "Baja style" racing?
3. Do the higher costs often associated with running a racing series/circuit dampen our ability to participate?
If you answered yes to any of these questions then we have an opportunity for you!
- You'll be able to race with some experienced racers and not so experienced racers too.
- Best of all it'll support a great cause too! Kids of fallen soldiers.
- Read on for the details and don't miss out!
- It will be a blast for all involved!
Ad Hoc Racing Opportunity Details:
What: High speed Off Road Race!! One time event, so come ready!!!
Where: Uwharrie Stables High Speed Track
Address: 4084 N Carolina 109 Uwharrie National Forest, Troy NC 27371
Website: http://www.uwharriestables.com/
Online Map: https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&client=firefox-a&q=4084+Highway+109+North,+Troy,+NC+27371&ie=UTF8&z=16&g=4084+Highway+109+North,+Troy,+NC+27371&iwloc=addr&iwstate1=dir
When: Saturday Nov. 17th be there at 8am, racing starts at 10am sharp
Why: Current racers want to squeeze in one more opportunity that will benefit their habits and even more so benefit a current event! No really the stables are having an event that weekend to give toys to kids of fallen soldiers. They said we could also use the facility to race basically for free if we put on a show for the fans. We're not looking to run a series here! We just wanna go have fun and help some kids have a good christmas! Come on out to participate, watch and help out the cause! All are welcomed!
We know it's a short notice but a bunch of racers wanted one more go at each other before the winter! So here is the deal!!
How can I participate?
- Bring an unwrapped toy or donation which will replace any entry fee (Spectators and racers).
- Racers can put in more money, bet each other, or whatever.
- Again this is for fun and braggin rights but for those racers who can contribute $25-$50 per entry a payout pot will be created for those who contributed.
- Currently their are no trophies, however, someone has volunteered to conjure up some sort of "trophies" to hand out. Seeing this person is keeping this aspect a secret we have no clue if and what they'll be. Consider this a value add if it materializes.
- According to stables owner, we can have the field to camp in and set up pits.
- So if you wanna come Friday November 16th they'll open the gates at 12 noon.
- Coming up early Saturday morning November 17th is also ok. Just make sure you're in time to register before racing starts at 10 am sharp.
What are the Rules?
There is one rule! Keep your shirt on! Just kidding! We must use some common sense here. All 4x4 rigs are welcomed, stock, bolt on boys, highly modified rigs, buggies, truggies etc. Your rig will be looked over for general safety aspects. If you focus on what most offroad parks require then you'll probably be OK. The Stable folks will have the final say on any safety concerns, so use your brain on what best makes you safe! You are responsible for your safety and every aspect of you rig, driving style and actions taken while racing.
Every racer will be required to bring a DOT approved helmet, have working seat belts or harnesses and disconnected airbags if present! No exceptions there! A fire extinguisher is highly recommended! Fire suits are always recommended but not required. So don't bring a pile of Sh*T and expect to race it. That is of course unless that pile of Sh*T has all the needed safety equipment! LOL! Then bring it and wheel the crap out of it! LOL!
Class specifics will be fully determined after registration is completed. As of now we are thinking 35" tire and below class and a 36" and above class. Also possible are classes based on engine size; 4, 6 and 8 cylinders. We will see how many show up and make it fair. NO WHINING!!! This will be a fun event to benefit kids and for all to have a good time! So leave the drama behind and lets have a blast! We will further discuss if it'll be timed runs or side by side action before running. This will be up to the registered racers who will have the opportunity to vote.
We will also require racers to volunteer while not racing. Help is needed as course Marshals, Timing and other misc things. So check in with us for where your needed. Remember this is for fun, for the kids and we're all gonna pitch in!
See ya'll there! Good luck!
