Basic Info:
NWAA @ The Ridge Monday April 26th, 2021
- This is lapping, not a race.
- This is fun, not a race.
- There is no trophy, it's not a race.
- This is for maximum track time.
- SAFETY FIRST.
Again, this is NOT a race. Or a competition. Point to pass, pay attention to your mirrors.
Pay attention to people waiting to pass you and be ready. You wouldn't want to get stuck behind someone slower than you, be courteous to the more advanced drivers.
In the passing zones when you come around the corner point fellow drivers to pass, to your cars left/drivers side. Give the other driver(s) the WHOLE straight to pass you. If more than one driver is passing you point by each car that you expect to pass you.
Passing Zones: Between Turn 16 and Turn 1, between Turn 5 and Workstation T6, and between Turn 12 and Turn 13. Please see the track map below for reference:
Please remember to drive nice and safely in Mason County. The county was nice enough to let Ridge Motorsports Park be built, show them courtesy in return.
Limit of 60 cars! 20 per Run Group, 3 Run Groups.
