NCRC operates an s2k chrono/challenge. There are some dedicated drivers there but it never really took off like SoCal's due to lack of consistent, widespread participation and, to a lesser extent, some shady politics on s2ki.

I wouldn't want to run a whole season with the mixed group but it might be a way to increase the numbers enough to have the dedicated 86cup run group that was discussed last event. Might be kinda fun for an event

If you can corral enough s2k drivers, then it would be interesting.

Socal is looking at a joint venture at BW later in the year, join that. NorCal 86Cup can join in as well

I would love to compete against s2k's !!! I say welcome them in full time. The more the merrier.

So they would class higher than an 86? So for example, if a stock s2k enters he/she would be in street class not stock class?

I'd agree, S2Ks are similar enough to our 86s that it would be fun and competitive to run with them as a group. Far better than sharing a run group session with Corvettes and Porsches and everybody else who makes a ton of power more than us.

I dunno how in favor of it I would be for a whole season as I feel like it definitely dilutes 86 cup and changes it to something else entirely.

Also, I'm not sure if the suggested classing system is really that fair to either party.

It's an interesting experiment tho to try for an event or 2.

I'm sure I could recruit a handful of those track rat s2ks.

I like having Corvettes and Porsches in the same run group as me... makes for better YouTube videos

NorCal's 86Cup mod calculator. Working and will send you your mod list, but of course you want to register with NCRC with it.

Disclaimer: NorCal will run 3 classes only (Stock, Street, and Unlimited). Anything past 4.1 points is Unlimited - this applies to Norcal ONLY. Anyone with 4.1+ points is usually FI'ed at this point and will be distinguished (as what FI) thru the results page, will post after each event.

As for the MRLS weekend when we combine both Cups, Mike and I are arm wrestling on who's points-system we should adhere to haha lol

Great luck to everyone in 2015!
