Good morning
A week on from the great start to the race weekend, my mind is still busy on what’s next.
One thing I’m keen to try and make appeal to people is the use of the many challenge cars that over the years have evolved into more speed capable trucks.
We see John Lawns great arenas at the shows have a boat load of cars turn up and join about. I would really like my classes and regs to be appealing to the same group.
For The Rock Riot I decided to join the stock and stock mod classes up and give a very loose cap on mods. So many cars are capable of holding their own on the race course but aren’t full on race cars like those in hero and unlimited. I want to create a diverse class that’s full of the battles between similarly modified cars. We saw Ry Beresford and Steve Hebden go at it and have a great time, they had some real pace, the class also saw the likes of the Lemon Off Road Team get to run almost their own race, so who’s up to make them work for it next time.
I’m keen to hear what might make our events more appealing to all those cars and teams that may have been close to racing before but not quite justified using their cars in a new way.
Thanks
