Title: Race of Champions
Post by: extrakt0r on June 22, 2005, 09:45:05 AM
What is required to attend the RoC at Daytona in October of this year?

Do you have to win a championship? Be an expert? etc...

Or just register, drive down and race?

Grid positions are determined by your regional championship placement and points.  That's about the only thing that's "different" about the ROC as opposed to other races.

 ;D If I understand correctly, you need to place in the to 5 of any event (GTL,LWSBK,etc.) to get "invited" to R.O.C.  Does that mean no entry fees for that race, or is that just a nice way to say "come and race"

Duc it is open to any CCS racer and as described earlier the only real difference is your grid position is based on your regional standings or order of preentry (if no regional points).

The ROC is open to all and anyone can win a national championship but you must race a minimum number of races within one regional class to be eligible for the championship bonus ( I beleive it is 5 races in a particular class in one region to be eligible)

Question - if you have two riders that win every race of a particular class in their region, but one region has 8 rounds and another has 6 rounds who gets the better grid spot?

another question - some clubs give more points for a win than other clubs,  is the rider that only get's 16 points for a win going to get get screwed because another club gives 36 points for a win?

I think CCS scores the same across all regions...  Since ROC is a CCS event your CRA, CMRA, MRA or WERA points don't mean a thing.

LRRS is affiliated with CCS, so our points count towards the ROC, we only get 16 points for a win....

that makes two of us, but trust me of all the retarded rules LRRS has with pre-entry, grid positions, post entries, swapping classes etc that is one of the easier ones to understand  ::)

tel you what though, if i win a certain class championship and go to Florida for the ROC race in that same class that pays $10,000 i sure as shit arent starting down in the pack  ;)

It is NOT points it is class standings every one in first place in a region gets gridded first then those in second so on down the line for all pre entered riders then pre entered rides with no class standing (ie points) then post entered riders (regardless if they have points in a class)
