OK guys…RideTech has an open spot for the Sand Hills Open Road Challenge on August 9-11, 2012! http://www.sorcrace.com/
We were fortunate enough to be included with the Optima Batteries group in 2011 and 2012, but we simply cannot make it this year.
The SORC is not for the rookie, the timid, or the unprepared. It is 55 miles of excessive speed along a wandering public [but closed for the race] county road that include obstacles such as curves, hills, mailboxes, trees, ditches, cows, and rattlesnakes.
It IS, however, quite possibly the most fun you would have this year in your car with your clothes on! The population of Arnold, Nebraska welcomes this race with open arms and keeps you fed, watered and entertained like you’ve never experienced before. It’s Mayberry with an attitude! Be aware that there are no motels within about an hour of Arnold, so plan on taking a camper for the most convenience. There are plenty of places to park.
The spot available is with the Optima Batteries group, which will run in a special 91mph class. [more rules on the SORC website]. If you want to be considered for this spot, email me directly with a photo of your car and some data on it…and convince me that you are ready, willing, and ABLE to compete competently.
You do NOT have to run RideTech equipment to be considered for this spot, but it helps. You WILL have to provide your own room, board, fuel, and other expenses related to the trip…this opportunity include the entry fee ONLY [which normally costs $1,000]. You WILL be required to wear a large RideTech decal on your car, and we’ll load you up with lots of RideTech swag to wear and distribute at the race.
ALSO…this is an OUSCI Qualifier…the guys from Optima will be there to select someone from that race to attend the Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational in Vegas this fall!
I’m posting this opportunity on Pro-touring.com and on Lateral-G.net first because I figure you guys have the best prepared cars to participate…and likely the most enthusiasm. If you are interested and able, contact me directly [don't do PM's]…[email protected].
Time is short…Who wants in?
