The SCCA Milwaukee Region Inaugural
National Street Tire Challenge
Brought to you by:
Bridgestone Motorsport
Saturday September 12, 2009
The Milwaukee Region will be running a special Sports Car Club of America santioned event open only to cars running street tires. The purpose is to provide a unique event where competition for top index honors is open exclusively to those running street tires, and show support to those people who arrive and drive on their street tires. The event will be held in Milwaukee, WI at Miller Park.
* Street Tires are defined as tires which have a minimum tread wear rating of 140.
Classes
Each car will receive a multiplier base on the RTP/PAX Index based the current SCCA Solo Rulebook (excluding the Street Touring classes). Vehicles will be divided into one of the three competition classes offered at this event; FWD (front wheel drive), AWD (All wheel drive), or RWD (rear wheel driving). Final positions in class will be determined by multipling your top time of the day by your RTP/PAX index, fastest time winning.
Examples of Car Classification:
If you are running a stock 2007 Corvette Z06 (which is classed in SS) you would be running in the RWD class with a SS index multiplier.
If you are driving a 1993 Honda Civic prepped to Street Prepared rules and normally run in FSP you will be racing in FWD with a FSP index multiplier.
If you normally drive your modified Subura WRX STi in Street Touring Ultra, you will have to find the appropriate Street Prepared class which your car would run, in this case BSP since the Street Touring classes are not allowed to be used as multipliers, and you will race in AWD with a BSP index multiplier.
Eligible Participants
The event is open to everyone running on Street Tires. As with all Milwaukee Region events, SCCA membership is required. A special weekend membership is available for onsite non-members. As a bonus, there is a regular Milwaukee Region event scheduled on Sunday the 13th.
Entry Fees:
$40 Online Pre-Registration (SCCA Members Only
http://register.scca-milwaukee.org/ )
$45 Onsite Annual SCCA Members
$55 Onsite Non-Members
All entrants will receive an event t-shirt to show off to all of your friends!
Logistics:
The event will be run just like all Milwaukee Region events, meaning you can expect a great course design on one of the premier sites, smooth operations, and a fun day. The number of runs will be determined by the event attendance, but we strive for a total of 6 runs (3 morning and 3 afternoon).
Trophies
We will award trophies as per the SCCA rule book, with special trophies to the top finishers in FWD, AWD, and RWD classes, and to the competitor who has the fastest RTP/PAX index time.
Food:
As with all Milwaukee Region events in 2009, lunch will be available on-site for purchase from Cousins Subs.

All I know is what's in the post.
I have been pushing for a street tire class for the Z (and other cars) for years. The Florida State Championship had a very successful STU-2 class last year, and I hope this event gets a good turnout too.
I plan to compete in this event, even though I will be making the trip from SW Florida.

The event will be held in Milwaukee, WI at Miller Park.

Very cool man, good luck!
Is john going with you and/or running against you? Where can I see an entry list?
I'm nervous about the way they are doing their classing since both the STi and the S2000 are in BSP, which means they would be in your class for this event
I expect to see lots of video posted on youtube!!

Yes, the S2K's will be a problem, but it's close enough to a fair fight for me.
John is doing nationals and stuck with STU's 245 tire width limit. So I don't know if he wants to bring his 245's up against unlimited tire-width AWD BSP cars.
BTW, I just squeezed 275's on the front, and 285's on the back of my Z.

This looks awesome, and I know you've been trying to push for a street tire class for us for a long time. I would go but I stand no chance of winning lol.
Good luck and definitely keep us updated!!

STU-2 (street-tire class for two-seaters) had one of the best turnouts of any class at the Florida State Championship. -And that was the first year they offered it.
Yeah that's him. He used to drive a black 03, now he's got a gray/silver 07. Anyways, I talked with him last weekend and he's going. I might try to go too even though I wouldn't be any competition at all.

Ok made a random decision today to register for this event lol. Maybe it's the 12 hrs of work I did (yet I'm still at the office) that's making me loony and think I'll have a chance. But what the hell, it's seat time and should be lots of fun.
So I'm regisered, and it looks like only me and Z1 so far in R-BSP. I considered registering for BS for better PAX and taking off my rear swaybar, but I figure ppl may complain about the wheels and intake plenum spacer.
Also sorry I chose 271 without knowing you were 272 lol. Ppl may think we're co-driving even tho urs is blue and mine is black.
Woo-hoo!!! I'm excited!! 6 hr drive isn't TOO bad i guess....
