Changes to Upcoming CCS Raceday Schedules at Blackhawk Farms

Blackhawk Farms Raceway

August 5, 2010, Fort Worth, Texas - The Championship Cup Series would like to announce changes to upcoming races at Blackhawk Farms Raceway scheduled for August 21-22, 2010 and September 25-26, 2010.

With permission from Blackhawk Farms Raceway, the schedule has been changed to move the traditional Test-N-Tune from Friday to Saturday with all Championship Cup Series events to take place on Sunday. The mounting pressure of the current economic situation has forced CCS and Blackhawk Farms to accept this change in an effort to keep both programs viable through the recession.

Those entrants who have pre-entered based on the three day event schedule will be given special consideration to modify their registration until August 13, 2010 at 5:00pm Central Time.

Daytona Makes Changes To Staging Areas

Daytona

Daytona International Speedway has advised us of some important changes to where you must park for your first trip to Registration, so everyone please take note!

Per email received from Daytona today (2/18):
   "With the addition of the flat track in our West Lot, we will need to stage your competitors on the old Dog Track property. You will still be utilizing the ticket booth at the top of the tunnel but they will just park and walk from the east side rather than from the west."

   "Gate 40 will still be open and they can use it to go in and out of the facility after they have registered."

This only effects the Staging Area - our Registration is in the same location. On the below map, drive in where it says "Gate 32 Entrance". After parking, it is a short walk to Registration.

Note that the CCS portion of the Schedule on this map is wrong. Use our official Tentative Schedule instead.
