Anyone know what configuration CCS runs at VIR? I have only raced there with the old Moto ST and we used the full course....bad to the bone!

Will racers need anything other than CCS/ASRA license and AMA membership to enter the AMA races?

Nope. CCS license and AMA membership are it.

Well, and entry fee money.



Also, I'll reiterate this again, since it gets missed: AMA membership *is not* the same thing as an AMA Pro license. In fact, if you hold an AMA Pro license, and have done any pro events in the past 12 months, you are not eligible to race in AMA Road Race Grand Championship races.

Generally, the rules and specs for classes are set up to allow for flexibility between bikes from different clubs, so if your bike is set up for CCS, unless you have a weird bike, there should be a class you'll fit into. If you look at the results from last year, it shouldn't change too much: (any races listed as "AMA" were RRGC classes) http://www.ccsracing.us/results/2012/102112%20DIS%20CCS%20Results.pdf

Since the age limit is lower for VIR, there will probably be additional youth oriented classes as well.

Also, the form for 2013 hasn't been posted yet, but anyone considering running for the Horizon Award should submit a letter of intent: http://www.americanmotorcyclist.com/Libraries/Racing_Documents/2012_RRGC_HORIZON_LOI.sflb.ashx
