    Default Runoffs and Beyond

    If anyone is looking to upgrade their Runoff program, I am available for hire. I have extensive experience in organizing/managing/engineering formula car teams successfully. We won a FRP F2000 championship and the 2021 FC Runoffs, with podiums in 2020 and 2022. Also FRP and Runoff championships in FF. Many wins and championships over the last 40 years. I am open to sharing between drivers, teams, and even classes.

    If you need mechanical help too, my mechanic is also available so we could provide full support.

    I will be doing freelance consulting after Labor Day 2023, so looking for interesting people and projects to work with in 2024. Greg Rice RiceRacePrep-at-gmail.com

    I have some Runoff work lined up but need more to be feasible.
    We can provide full support for a formula or sports racing car.

    We can still provide support service for people at the Runoffs, which would include paddocking on pavement in the main paddock. I even have previous Runoff winning FF and FC cars available for use, if long distance entrants are looking for options.

    My team, RiceRace, has won 2 Runoffs and 2 FRP championships in the last 3 years.

    We're locked into our program but I still have my mechanic available who could work a half day or several hours per day to help someone who really needs an extra hand.

    I have been to most of the Runoffs since 1985 and have a passion to be there. I have yet to cancel my hotel room. From FV to B-spec, if someone is considering some extra help, please reach out. It does not hurt to inquire.

    You may consider going as a marketing trip. See someone struggling with something and help out to show the value of your services. Just a thought !

    Believe me, that is a consideration but I don't have $2500 to spend on an eleven day road trip. To be honest, running 1-2 cars for that long a trip, while charging what the market will bear, is not a profit generator, but a marketing exercise. I do it because I believe it is good for future business and I do have 35 years of Runoffs in my blood stream.

    I just spent three days at Watkins Glen working with 3 drivers. It was a very solid weekend that I provided real value for, filling both podiums. I am particularly proud of my work with one driver who I have been working with for 6 years. He has literally improved 6 seconds per lap during that time, and has gone from a regional mid-packer to a 61 year old man battling for a FF win against teen-age aspiring pros running lap record pace. We tuned his attitude, his crew, his car, and his driving. That is pretty cool!

    I still have a few days to hook up with someone, and hope that happens. Thanks!

    The reason we pulled our Runoffs entry was that Ayrton Houk will be racing in England with Team USA.

    It looks like we will be there race days. We are scheduled to help out a FF competitor on Sunday but otherwise available if people are short crew and need help on race day. I would also be happy to meet up with anybody looking for help down the road.
