Default Special "Extra" race for the 2002 Cartek Corvette Challenge !!

Raceway Park has just given us another race day.......However, it is pointed to the top 4 in the points standings. On one of their Wednesday night spectaculars......usually they entail shows like Robosaurus, Monster trucks, Pro Mods, Fuel dragsters and Fuel Funny cars, Alcohol Funny cars, Jet Dragsters and Jet trucks...and draw as many as 50,000 spectators....well we will have the top 4 points racers running in this show also !! Think how it would feel like to race in front of up to 50,000 people !! If you think you would like to race in this event all you have to do is place in the top 4 in point at the time the track picks the day. Come out and sign up for the points series and get in the action, remember in last years series nobody was a shoe in, it went to the last race before the points champion was crowned !!

Guys, think of it, we are considered part of the real Raceway Park yearly program !! We have made it to the big time, help surport the series guys !! :D :D :D :D

Boy, I'm excited. When I first told track management of our proposal to let our cars race at a BIG wednesday show, they looked at us like we had 4 heads each but being the businessmen they are at E-town they recognize our mass appeal to the spectator that attend these type of showes.
Our Corvette are easer for the spectators to relate to than a 1971 camaro.
By see us race they might just want to get out of the stands and try racing their own car what ever the make/model it may be.
As Dennis stated Raceway Park will invite the top (4) racers in the Cartek Corvette Challenge Points Series to compete in one of the three Wednesday Night Spectacular Show. (date to be determined).
So how did all this happen???????
It's easy, The racers that participated in this series and put on such a SUPER show made this all possible and I thank you all for your support.
As this series growes we will be able to do more for you, the racers.
Thank you all again, and remember to sign up for the points program when that becomes available.
Thanks John

I'm not that good of a racer. It would be cool to see a C3 there racing. I'll bet there are not to many of them racing.

Gordon, no reason why it couldn't be you. Racing is 50% skill, 10% car and the other 50% LUCK :lol:

Recently have not had much luck. Broken rear and now transmission having 4th gear troubles. I think they should take a car from each generation and run them. :D
