what a super opportunity for F600 racers. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.
Congrats Clint on your new ride for next season.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's Awesome!!!
Congratulations Clint. :thumbsup:
I'm confused.
2014 champ gets an F2000 ride in 2016.
2016 champ gets an F2000 ride in 2017.
2015 champ gets nothing?
Am I missing something?
Great program, by the way!
When a series announces posistive things its a plus!Quote:

If the questions are answerted off line then good but it should be shared with the rest of the community.
The fact that they are doing thing to help the competitor advance there carreer is good but will it really have the impact on the F600 comp numbers. Time will tell. I for one like the F500 / 600 and should be a good progression out of shifter karts for some one.
I'm not on the series board so don't take this as the end all be all answer, I just race here haha Clint didn't get the ride because he's the 2014 Champion. He got the seat because he's been the fastest driver in the series since it's inception. I won the title in 2013 but I know I lucked into it. Right place right time if it were. I could hold my own at a few tracks but for the most part he was faster. Plus he can jump into any body elses car in the series on a test day, run a session or 2 and feel out exactly what setup changes the car needs. This team coming together for this program has a little bit of experience running the 2000 series and car but not enough to stand comfortably on so having that kind of feedback coming out of the car the first year is a big thing.Quote:

Ran as high as 5th at one point. We ALMOST got the 2nd car of Michai Stephens into the top 10 from the back also. Feels like it's taking forever but we're starting to figure out what these cars want finally. Just need to over come the decade head start most of the teams have on us with these things :P
