Sports And Touring CAr Racing (SATCAR) is excited to announce the Formula Street Fall Series of track events in the Great Lakes area. This series consists of four events at different tracks and points will be awarded to determine a series champion. Each of these events will have different run groups for driving school, practice/lapping, and race, along with lunch time touring - - something for everyone.

Sept. 1 “Speed at the Farms” - Blackhawk Farms Raceway, South Beloit, IL
Sept. 27-28 “Grattan G-Fair” - Grattan Raceway, Grattan, MI
Oct. 17-18 “ColorFall Sprints” - GingerMan Raceway, South Haven, MI
Nov. 1-2 “Four Mile Finale” - Road America, Elkhart Lake, WI

SATCAR racing uses a format that is very much like driving schools and open tracking in that passing is allowed only on selected straights, corners must be taken single file, and cars start single file from pit lane. This format creates a reasonable degree of safety for drivers and their cars so drivers can enter any track worthy car, from street stock to race prepared.

The safe format is combined with a unique, handicap based scoring system that provides fairness for all drivers, whether they bring 100 HP or 500 HP to the track. The result is a totally new form of road racing at a much lower cost than has been available in the past.

Further information about SATCAR and the Fall Series, including the Rules Of Competition, is available at the SATCAR web site: www.satcarracing.com.

I'm interested in trying this out.

Last time I read the rules DOT tires were required. NASA TT has the Hoosier Grand AM Cup in the same category and same points assement as the Hooser R6 etc. Any chance you could make this allowance? I don't feel the GAC has an advantage other than they are dirt cheap when purchased as scuffs.

Thanks
