  • The Fox's Racing Journal Postscript: Championship Banquet

    This year's Championship Banquet was on Sunday evening, but other things had distracted me from making this post.

    In any case, the big topic being discussed between attendees was the plans for a new class. There's been no known headway on what direction the track plans to take, but there was an interesting addition to the talk here; A man from California who claims he and some friends tested, of all things, an SCCA Spec Racer Ford on a dirt track and are convinced the cars would make an excellent dirt racing class. Some of us think he's completely insane, but more than a few like the idea. I think I'll take a "believe it when I see it" approach.

    The big surprise came while handing out the championship awards. A new award was announced that would be given out annually for the track's Most Spectacular Wreck.

    Guess who won the award in it's debut season?

        BTW I sure hope you never win that award again FormulaFox!

          Guy who was pushing the idea said the test was done on the spec SRF suspension package. That's the only real concern I'd have about the idea. SRF has a big maintenance network, so I personally don't think it'd be a bad thing to try... Buuuut even as cheap as the SRF is I don't think I'm in the sort of area where the track can afford to take a flyer on the idea. Around here we'll need to stick to proven dirt cars.

          Same here. Though it WAS nice to win an end of season award for the first time.
