About this event
ALABAMA & TENNESSEE VALLEY REGIONS SCCA
Double SARRC and Restricted Track Trials
August 29-30, 2020
Sanction #: TBD
A Spectator Regional Racing and Restricted Track Trials Event on the 2.38 Mile Barber Motorsports Park Road Course located on Route 20 Exit 140 just East of Birmingham, Alabama.
Make time to visit the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum, the premier collection of vintage Motorcycles in the country. www.barbermotorsports.com
Barber Race Track is one of the most challenging and fun tracks to drive in the Southeast. Challenge the elevation changes, blind turns, and speed. We will be doing a combined Double SARRC and Track Trials. The SEDIV TT Championship Series returns to Barber with a fantastic opportunity for the SEDIV TT drivers to race on one of the best road courses in the country. Time to set the SEDIV TT Track Records at Barber.
The Restricted Track Trial sessions are an excellent opportunity for extra practice time since there is no Friday Practice Day. Each TT group will have two sessions before SARRC Qualifying and one session between Qualifying and the SARRC Races on Saturday and one session each before qualifying and also before the SARRC races on Sunday. Plenty of opportunity for the SARRC drivers to get extra track time at reduced cost from a normal practice day and without the Friday time off work and extra expenses. Road Race drivers wanting additional track time before Qualifying 1 should sign-up for the One Day Track Trial on Saturday, in addition to the SARRC. That will provide an additional 50 minutes of track time. For additional information, contact Race Chair: Mark Rothermel Email: m.rothermel@hotmail.com.
Workers will be reimbursed for expenses at $50 per day and lunches will be offered for each day worked. Come on out and join the fun!
