Last Chance and Challenge Cup Award Ceremony
The 2014 F-Vee Challenge Cup Series season winds up this upcoming Oct 4th at Watkins Glen International at the “Last Chance” event. Saturday’s race will count towards the 2014 season points total, with Sundays’ Vee only group!) competition going towards each competitors’ 2015 season points. For this event the first three Challenge Cup competitors for this race will be handed $50, $35 and $25 prize money respectively.
As part of the weekend’s schedule, The F-Vee Challenge Cup awards ceremony is to take place at Mura Bella’s Italian Steakhouse in Montour Falls (241 N. Genesee St. – just down the hill into Montour Falls from the Rt. 414 intersection light). Festivities will begin around 5:30 to 6:00 PM. The Series will provide appetizers and attendees can purchase dinners from a choice of 4-5 meals the restaurant will offer our group. During the ceremony the top five points finishers will be awarded their respective F-Vee Challenge Cup Series trophies.Also, several supporters of the series are offering gift certificates to be given away; Kearney Driver Development (www.kearneykdd.com) has donated two (2) one-half off certificates for professional driver coaching. These KDD certificates will entitle the holder to either one day of coaching at $250 or a weekend of coaching for $500. This will be a random drawing and is open to any Challenge Cup driver that competed in the 2014 season, but to win they must be in attendance. These are valuable prizes and Jim Kearney’s coaching record speaks for itself – quite a nice prize for the two lucky recipients! And the last six (6) $25 gift certificates from Quixote Racing(www.quixoteracing.com) will be chosen, also by a random drawing, with many thanks to Dietmar Bauerle for his generous support of the Challenge Cup Series.
But let’s not forget the racing! Besides the Saturday Regional race, the Glen Region has scheduled an F-Vee ONLY race group for Sunday! This is scheduled to start at 9:55 AM and will be a 25 minute race.
