Round 4 Preview - Registration & Schedule
After a six-week break, the racers of the NorCal Rotax Challenge are ready to get back in action on July 18 for round 4 of the series. Running on the tight and challenging Sprint Track configuration, drivers will certainly need all their endurance for the mid-summer heat.
The Rotax classes have seen upwards of a 20% growth over last year and officials expects the strong fields to continue for this mid-summer event. Senior Rotax has been the strongest class of the year with 20 entries per race and a very tight field of drivers. With three winners in three races, (Nic LeDuc, Wes Phillips, Jake Mottaz) the Senior Rotax class has shown to be very competitive in 2009.
The same can’t be said for three other classes which have seen domination by Kiel Spaulding (Junior Rotax), Andrea Delfanti (Masters Light) and Troy Castenada (DD2), all sweeping the first three races. Tight racing has been the standard in Micro-Max, Mini-Max, and Rotax Masters with multiple winners and several drivers contending for top honors.
Registration starts at 7:15 am Saturday morning with pre-registration available on Friday, 2 sessions of Practice starts at 8:15 am, Qualify at 11:00 am and the afternoon of racing will start at 12:45 pm. For more information on the NorCal Rotax Challenge, contact race director Ric Shaw.
