2018 86DRIVE Challenge
 

Hello, we've changed our name from NorCal 86CUP to 86DRIVE Challenge! Not to worry though, we're still the same group of people, doing track days in a similar format, but at the same time doing things a little differently. Here's a summary of some of the exciting things that are happening:

• Joining forces with the already-well-established NorCal 86DRIVE community to broaden our reach and bring more drivers to our events
• Changing our name from NorCal 86CUP to 86DRIVE Challange
• Simplified ruleset to make those forms easier to fill out. Most people should more-or-less be in the same class as before
• NEW URL for our website: http://www.86drivechallenge.com/
• Calculator has been updated, so please visit the new site to figure out your class
• Championship classes have been reduced from 5 to 4 this year, including: GTRadial Stock, GTRadial Street, Touring, Unlimited
• NEW "Sport" class. This class is intended for newer (or timid) drivers who are just joining our series, and don't feel comfortable competing against the veteran drivers yet, but still want to be part of the fun. There are no mod restrictions in this class, and it does not earn championship points for the season
• NEW sponsors: Please welcome The Racers Line, Bluemoon Performance, and Verus Engineering as new sponsors for 2018! GTRadial is again, our title sponsor, and Winmax, Elite Performance, 86DRIVE are continuing to support us this year
• Special shoutout to Scott Grasso, our "official/unofficial" photographer, who tirelessly makes it to many of our events to take awesome pictures for us.

Please visit the updated website for the complete schedule, rules, calculator, and other details. Feel free to post questions here!

Does that mean I can be in the "Sport" class? :bellyroll:

When you buy another 86 ;)

After "Sport" you'll be dumped straight into Unlimited since you don't have an FA20 under the hood though :lol:

Was wondering where the old website went when I recently tried to use the calculator. Love the rebrand, looking forward to the new season. And no more conflicts with the soccer schedule haha.

I want to pick up a set of Firestone's and run my STX car in Stock class

:burnrubber:

If only I had the money for more track days
:cry:

Haha, that was an unrelated issue with the DNS configuration. Both new and old domains point to the same (new) site now.

Looking forward to hopefully doing a track day or two this year!

Hey guys, I’m new to the forums and thinking about joining this challenge this year! How does it work? Just sign up for the track day and show up? Or maybe more info will be available later?

Welcome! Yep, you register for the event and on the day of you fill out some forms to determine which class you'll be in. At the end of the day your lap time will be collected. There's more information regarding rules and other things on the site. We also have a Facebook group. If you have any questions you can ask us there as well!

Yep, what he said. And +1 on the Facebook group suggestion, since we're much more active over there!

Thanks so much, looking forward to it!
