Is a CCS license required to participate in MCRA's races?

 

any race lisence from a reconized orginization. ccs,wera,ama,cmra ect... or a complete race school certificate

 

bump...getting close. where else can you go,run a trackday and have a chance to win a purse in the same day

 

I'm sure i already know the answer but, i had a hole rub'd in my belly pan and didn't repair it cause i assumed i was done for the year at this point. Your going to require a full fluid pan right?

 

i know some racers drill drain holes and such. but if you would just use a effort and duck tape over it, you will be fine

 

well it's not a small hole by any means. Came down at road america on the second straight. so it's got about a volleyball size hole in it. structure of it is fine but it's definetly not a fix it with duct tape scenario.

 

Duct tape a turkey pan on the inside.

 

haha, will that actually pass tech?

 

Yes, I also sent you a pm. I have seen guys at ccsforum weekends wire a 2.00 turkey pan under stock bodywork and pass. Also seen it on sv's

 

almost here, gonna be nice. low 80`s ducati truck, trackday mag attending

 

Sounds like fun guys good luck with your evet.

Any word on Gateway for next season? I know they let all the NASCAR contracts lapse.

 

Get a roll of aluminum tape (auto parts store or local bodyshop), clean the surface thoroughly, tape over the hole from both sides....bingo.

 

Trackday is almost full just in pre-register alone. So if you waiting for the day off you might be turned away. Theres a few spots left in novice and intermiate and expert has a little more room if your a expert rider.
