I'm opening up this thread to start the planning for the 2014 Production Car Festival.
The NC Region is very much behind having the Prod Fest return to the Goblins Go weekend at VIR in 2014.
This will be the 10th anniversary Prod Fest, so Barrie and I are going to do whatever we can to make it a spectacular event. We're always looking for ideas, so feel free to post them here.
One thing I'm going to be asking for is for the race to be either the 2nd race in the morning or the first race after lunch, to allow for a slightly warmer track and better conditions. thoughts?
Another idea I have is to ask the NC Region to create a regional only GT4 class, using the GTCS from the last year where the carb/choke option was permitted as alternative to the SIR. My thoughts are is that this might encourage drivers to get out those old GT4/GP/FP sedans that are gathering dust. Since they're not running GTL anyway, it shouldn't affect the current GTL participation issues.
I know that there are 3 or 4 cars in the Coffin racing stable that could be easily put back into service as a GT4 car, and I'm hoping there are other out there who would like to bring their racecar to the Prod Fest and join us for the fun!
Who would be interested in this idea??
Thanks for everyone's support of the Prod Fest and we look forward to 2014!
