Speed Seekers Event Format
This event format is what we used at Road America to exicute a well defined system.
There will be 120 cars allowed
to register for the event and the cars will be placed
into one of 4 respective groups. Groups
will be labeled as A, B, C & D. The groups are defined
as stated below.
Group A “Assertive” Class --
These drivers are seasoned
and drive other tracks and events. Drivers are capable of driving aggressively
in a safe manner. Drivers are very comfortable passing and being passed within the set
passing zones.
Group B “Advanced” Class -- Drivers have
driven Road America
and other tracks and events, and may drive more conservatively than the
"Assertive" Class. Drivers are comfortable passing and being passed.
Group C “Intermediate” Class – Drivers have
limited
track time and drives conservatively. Passing may be limited in the class due
to experience and comfort levels.
Group D “Novice” Class – Driver has
little or no track experience and will drive very conservatively in this group.
Very little passing expected.
Note 1.
All classes must observe the same passing/ no passing zone markers and proper
passing procedures.
