Lakeside Outlaws – race what you brung
This will be a “Run What You Brung” type category. It will be open to any vehicle the isn’t an open wheeler (eg formula ford)
If it can pass through scrutineering, driver has a social outlook on their racing, you’re in.
SORRY
A problem we did not foresee!
After talking to Brian Smallwood of Replica Tourers we identified the problem that not all categories can do the 4 Rounds in the Lakeside GRRS this year; but some of their drivers can and do want to.
They also want to get the advantage of the series entry fee which allows them to save $400 on their entry fees for the year – Fair Enough.
SOLUTION
Lakeside will bring back the Outlaws RWYB category for those drivers that want to come to Lakeside for all rounds of the GRRS. We will sort out what the groups are in the category on the day – depending on the entries that go into it. We will also accept overflow from other categories into it but put their times into the correct category.
WHAT ABOUT THE MONEY?
Given we don’t know who can make which, what & when, we will charge you full freight for the first 3 entries i.e. $550; but your 4th entry will only cost you $150 so you will not have to pay more because your category didn’t do all four rounds.
Fair Enough? JT
