<description><![CDATA[ Hello Racers,<br /><br />We hope you will join us for the upcoming Team Endurance Race at Chicago Indoor Racing on Sunday, October 28.  Held on either Track 3 or Track 5, two different exhilarating and challenging combinations of Track 1 and Track 2, the Team Endurance Race is one of the most exciting events for both the drivers and the spectators.  To pitch the closest matched drivers together, we will classify drivers as either Pro or Clubman Class and trophies will be awarded to the top finishers for each class.  This will allow drivers with a Pro Score over 200 to compete with one-another and drivers with a Pro Score under 200 to compete with one-another for top honors.    Planning, consistency, and quick driver changes are the key… If only it were that easy!<br /><br /><br /><b>200 Lap Team Endurance Race – Sunday, October 28</b><br />Racing starts with a 20 minute Timed Qualifying Session to allow all of your drivers to warm up for the race and to qualify for the Team’s place on the starting grid.  At the end of the timed practice session, karts will be arranged in qualifying order and the last driver to qualify will start the race. During the 200 laps of racing teams made up of 2-6 drivers will be required to make 5 driver changes and even a fuel stop!  <br /><b>Time:</b> 5pm (arrival & check-in)<br /><b>Classes:</b> Pro and Clubman Class<br /><b>Cost:</b> $300 per team ($270 each if you sign up for all 3 races)<br /><b>Entry Form:</b> <a href="http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/2007FallEntryForms/TeamEnduroEntryFormFall07.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/2007FallEntryForms/TeamEnduroEntryFormFall07.pdf</a><br /><br /> <br />To participate in any of the upcoming events, just follow the Entry Form link, print and circle the desired date(s) and fax the entry form to (847) 941-9401 upon completion.  Please let me know if you are planning to attend by contacting me at (847) 941-9440 or <a href="mailto:BDopp@ChicagoIndoorRacing.com.">BDopp@ChicagoIndoorRacing.com.</a> <br /><br />I look forward to another great race,<br />Brian.<br />]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Hello Racers!<br /><br /><br />We hope you can join us for the upcoming Clubman Class Monthly Run-Off’s on Monday, October 22 at Chicago Indoor Racing.  Held on either Track 3 or Track 5, two different and exciting combinations of Track 1 and Track 2, the MRO is a unique and competitive format designed to pitch the closest matched drivers together based on experience and ability.  Only drivers with a Pro Score under 200 are eligible to compete in the Clubman Class Monthly Run-Off’s which gives everybody else a chance!<br /><br /><br /><b>Clubman Class Monthly Run-Off’s – Monday, October 22</b><br />The Monthly Run Off combines different elements that test a driver’s all around ability.  Upon being placed into 2 weight classes, the Run-Off’s start with two Timed Qualifying Sessions which determine the starting position for one 15 lap race.  The finishing order in the 15 lap race then determines the starting position for a final 30 lap race.  The two Qualifying Sessions run in opposite directions and the pole sitter gets to choose the direction of the 15 lap race.  With the 30 lap feature running in the opposite direction, people have to think further than just the next race…  <br /><b>Pro Score:</b> Under 200<br /><b>Time:</b> 6:00pm (arrival & check-in)<br /><b>Cost:</b> $80 per round ($70 each if you sign-up for the remaining <br /><b>Entry Form:</b> <a href="http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/2007FallEntryForms/MROEntryFormFall07.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/2007FallEntryForms/MROEntryFormFall07.pdf</a><br /><br /><br />…and just around the corner:<br /><br /><b>200 Lap Team Endurance Race – Sunday, October 28</b><br />Time: 5pm (arrival & check-in)<br />Format: 1 x 20 minute Timed Qualifier, 1 x 200 lap Feature Race<br />Team Size: 2-6 with a prerequisite of 5 driver changes<br />Classes: Pro and Clubman<br />Cost: $300 per team ($270 each race if you sign up for all three)<br />Entry Form: <a href="http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/2007FallEntryForms/TeamEnduroEntryFormFall07.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/2007FallEntryForms/TeamEnduroEntryFormFall07.pdf</a><br /><br /><br />To participate in any of the upcoming events, just follow the Entry Form link, print and circle the desired date(s) and fax the entry form to (847) 941-9401 upon completion.
