2010 Classic Motorsports Cup

Oct. 8-Oct. 30

Announcing a new, four event, mini-enduro road race series for 2010. This series runs on tracks from Florida to Ohio, and is designed to lower the cost and put the fun back into small-bore production car racing. The most unique feature of this series, is that the entry fee will be FREE to anyone already entered at that weekend’s regular event.
This series has many unique features, as the pre-1965 requirement will focus on the MGs, Triumphs, Alfa and Porsche 356s who usually don’t get the lion’s share of attention at most race weekends. HSR president, Steve Simpson, states “We are listening to our customers and with rising costs and more and more focus on newer and faster machinery, we wanted to refocus our efforts on the guys that make up the back-bone of classic car racing, the small-bore production racers of the fifties and early sixties.”
SVRA president Howard Turner adds “SVRA is pleased to host the Series at two of our fine venues, and we look forward to seeing the MGs, Triumphs, Alfas and Porsche 356s get top billing and the significant additional track time. It should be a big plus for these cars that are the traditional backbone of our sport,” Classic Motorsports publisher, Tim Suddard says, “We were looking for ways to put more fun back into small-bore production racing. The Mini-enduro format will offer a lot of seat time without adding to the expense of a race weekend. A longer format would get too expensive in regards to consumables like tires and fuel. The mandatory pit stop will really help those racers who want to share rides, which will add to the fun and further lower expenses.”
Drivers in the series will be urged to pit together at races to further build camaraderie. The guys at Classic Motorsports, HSR and SVRA will be throwing a free welcome party on Thursday night of each race weekend to make sure the events kick off in a fun and friendly atmosphere.
