winter/snow racing series at Monticello

http://drivemmc.com/

click on the winter drive series.

Winter Driving Series – Monticello Motor Club
Let the snow fly –

The MMC Winter Driving Series is designed to deliver driving excitement, rally car style, on our track that happens to be covered with ice and snow!

On December 20th, 2008, weather permitting, MMC will be opening for the first time in the winter. An exciting fun filled day of getting sideways and mastering four-wheel drifts awaits you. Come check out Dave Mirra, BMX legend and 2008 Rally America Rookie of the Year. He will be driving his Open Class 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI rally car. Vermont Sports Car, who runs Subaru Rally Team USA will be bringing Travis Pastrana's championship winning 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STI rally car for participants to check out.

Utilizing the South Circuit, groomed to perfection, the Winter Driving Series will be open to all licensed driving enthusiasts. Bring your friends and family to watch as you test the limits of your car through time-trials, open lapping sessions, and other exciting formats. Just because winter is here doesn’t mean the motoring fun must come to a halt. So let it snow at the Monticello Motor Club.

Winter Driving Series Highlights:

• MMC South Circuit - 1.8 Miles with 11-turns consisting of large sweepers, increasing and decreasing radius corners, and thrilling elevation changes.
• Exciting Formats – Go against the clock in head to head time trials or test, tune, and practice your skills in our open lapping sessions.
• Rally Events – Break out the rally car, mix it up with fellow drivers of Rally New York and the USRC to put on a show for spectators.

Entrants will have the option of participating in time trials, open lapping sessions, and other formats (subject to MMC participation agreement)! Seatbelts and helmets must be worn at all times. Studded tires are not permitted. Admission is $250 per driver and $15 per person for spectators. MMC requires a credit card authorization form on file to cover additional fees for towing and any damage to the facility. All drivers must read and acknowledge additional rules and regulations in the participation agreement prior to entry.

Vehicle Inspection
Participant’s vehicles are required to pass an inspection. This is to ensure no studded tires are equipped, working seat belts are installed, all safety lights are operating properly and each driver has an approved SNELL 95 or newer helmet. Vehicles will also be inspected to ensure there are no loose objects within, and that the vehicle is track ready.

I want to thank Rally New York and the US Rally Championship for allowing me to speak at the 2008 Awards Ceremony at Jose O'Reilly's. They have been a big help in figuring out details of the Winter Series and it is greatly appreciated.
