The highly intriguing ChumpCar World Series makes its 12th stop of its 2017 racing season at the NCM Motorsports Park next month.
From June 17-18, racing enthusiasts have the chance to pack the track and take in two full days of competition, as the endurance races range from 7 to 24 hours in length. While there will be many spectators enjoying the event, ChumpCar urges those that have always wanted to race to do so – and it’s much easier than you may think.
As the organization states, “It’s for Chumps like you that have always wanted to road racing without all of the hassles or huge rule books or obscene expense.” It adds that “It’s about ‘Average Joe’ and almost-race-ready cars.”
ChumpCar is North America’s home for real, affordable and competitive road racing – and the World Series provides all of those benefits. Along with those conveniences, drivers will be competing on the NCM Motorsports Park’s “Grand Full” course. The Grand Full is 3.15 miles long and its 2300 degree main straight combines maximum technical turns with two high-speed sections.
So, if you’ve ever wanted to race and have been held back from doing so because of costs and other hassles, the ChumpCar World Series at the NCM Motorsports Park is the perfect time for you to do something you’ve always wanted to do!
