Welcome, Mike!
I think Fasttrax is the main racing organization in the Ohio area, and I can't tell you if they are with CCS now or not.
For a little more money, the '03-'04 R6 is a little better bike with fuel injection and it does share wheels, the rear rotor, and cush drive with the current R6. For a less expensive alternative, the SV650 absolutely rocks. As you know, tires are a big expense, and a 600 will consume them more than the SV with it's 70+/- HP. I personally like the newer chassis, '03 I believe. Mabye that gives you some more ideas.
