Hi,
Registration for DUFFUS #2 at Pittsburgh International Raceway on August 1, 2 & 3 is now open on MotorsportReg.com. We will be racing in support of Formula Race Promotions Pro F1600 & F2000 series for that weekend. The Pro Atlantic cars are not racing, so we are in effect the third FRP group of the weekend. The race weekend is being organized by NARRA and FRP is partnering with them.
This means that we will be racing not only with the FRP Pro cars, but with some really trick Vipers, Corvettes, Mustangs, Subaru WRX (they are really, really fast) and other really interesting GT type cars and the Radical Sports Racing cars. We will have our own FF, CF, VCF, VFF race group; nothing but Formula F cars on track when you are racing.
The schedule that you see on MotorsportReg is really just a place holder until we receive the event schedule from NARRA/FRP. We will be on track twice each day of the three day event. The two Friday sessions will be practice sessions. The Saturday morning session will be qualifying and Saturday afternoon will be race #1 of the weekend. Both sessions Sunday sessions will races.
Kill stickers will be awarded to the podium finishers in each class for each race. Trophies will be presented to the podium finishers in each class for the final race (#3) of the weekend. The entry fee will be $495 for the weekend.
Dan Pyanowski has kindly agreed to provide recommended gear ratios for those of us who have never run at PIR. Dan will either e-mail them to me for posting here or post them himself as part of this thread. Since he has run both FF & CF at PIR and is a very, very quick driver the ratio information will be good.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you should have any questions (joemffracer@verizon.net or 540-686-0335).
Thanks,
Joe Marcinski
