its that season again; race season!!!!
March 23 will be in Dayton, TN. This event will be a little different than what we have done in the past.
ECORS makes its 2013 debut at a completely new venue for us in Dayton, TN!!!
This venue offers fantastic spectator areas that are VERY easy to get to and where you can see a big majority of the course! This venue has been hosting 4×4 events for years but this will be the first endurance type event at the facility. There are fantastic rocks and wide open, rolling hills for the teams that are set up for speed! This course will test both the speed and rock crawling abilities of every team!
Schedule:
Friday, March 22
Admission for spectators is $15/day. Kids 8 and under are free!
Camping is available for spectators and racers. Tent spots are $5 each per night, RV spots are $10 each per night. No hookups.
Food vendors will be on site!
For "Meet the Drivers", everyone should pull their rig up to the course in front of the rocks by the spectator areas. This is here to promote the drivers and give the spectators a chance to mingle with the teams and ask questions, etc. We ask that everyone participate in this. While there is no penalty for not participating, it is part of the weekend for you and spectators.
Tech Inspection times are published. We will have someone dedicated to this during this time. If you wish to go through inspection early or are late and need to go through tech later than the published times, you will need to schedule this in advance. Tech Inspections outside of the published times are $50. This is not a penalty but meerly put in place to encourage teams to go through tech as scheduled. If we need to break from our schedule from doing other things, then it slows us down and causes us additional costs. So, $50 for tech inspections early or late. Remember, you are REQUIRED to go through tech prior to qualifying.
Qualifying is REQUIRED. You will get 2 qualifying runs. You must run at least 1 of the 2 runs for each class you are registered in (if you register for 2 classes, you must run at least 1 qualifying run for each class). Your best time between the 2 runs will determine your start position. If you are not a season member, you will start behind all of the members regardless of qualifying time. But, your start position in relation to other non-season members will be determined by your qualifying time. If you miss qualifying, you will start behind everyone and will be assessed a 15 minute penalty on race day.
We will have lights on site to illuminate the rock section of course at night! Racers need to be prepared with proper lights on rigs for the course in the woods and pit support!
Address of the venue is:
35 Pitts Gap Rd.
Graysville, TN
Registration will open Feb. 23, 2013 for race teams. Team membership registration is currently open at www.ecors.com. If your racing for points, you need to have your team membership registration completed prior to signing up for this race!
Basic race entry fees:
UTV: $100
Stock Class: $75
Modified Stock: $150
Modified Class: $175
Unlimited Class: $200
For the first 2 weeks, race entry fees will remain constant. After 2 weeks, entry fees will raise by 10% each week until the race. Race registration on site will incur a $20 late registration fee in addition to entry fees. Payouts will be determined by the payout table on the ECORS website. Stock class is a TROPHY class only! There will be no prize $. Trophies and sponsor prizes will still be awarded to the top finishers.
