    2015 ECS FFR Challenge Series

    Hope everyone had a great winter off-season and are as geared up as I am to start the 2015 race season. 2015 also celebrates 15 years of the FFR Challenge Series, and 20 years of Factory Five Racing as a company!

    I'd like to do resurrect an old idea we did a couple of years back - the East Coast Challenge Series - epic wheel-to-wheel races with as many FFR Challenge cars on track as possible. Points from the races will tallied up (with 2 drops for fairness) to crown the 2015 ECS Champ, and a (not-yet-determined) FFR trophy will be presented to the winner at the end of Nationals.

    With NASA Nationals East coast at VIR this September, VIR is on the schedule twice.

    Schedule:
    1. VIR - March 20-23 (Fri test/tune, Fri 3hr Enduro, Sat/Sun sprint races)
    2. VIR - May 1-3 (Fri test/tune, Sat/Sun sprint races - Hyperfest - huge spectator event including live concerts, car shows, drifting, roll-over competitions, etc.. event was moved from SummitPoint as it outgrew the venue)
    3. MidOhio - June 5-7 (Fri test/tune, Sat/Sun sprint races)
    4. National Corvette Museum - July 17-19 (Brand new racetrack! Fri test/tune, Sat/Sun sprint races)
    5. NASA Nationals East @ VIR - Sept 3-6 (test/tune, 2 qualifying races, main Nats race)



    Also to announce Toyo Tire for 2015 has upped their spec tire contingency program with great payouts rewarding higher car counts. $450 for 1st, $350 for 2nd, $150 for 3rd, $100 for 4th, $50 for 5th, $25 being available to finishers in 10-14 (9-18 starters) and this payout is for each race day! $900 Toyo bucks possible makes a great weekend!

    See you on track!

    lol you are too funny Gary, all 818R's are welcome to come race with us on track, but they dont count for FFR Challenge series points cause they dont look or sound like a cobra or meet the spec rules

    Maybe we could run FFR in Thunder,

    and then run the FFRC's and the 818R's in ST3 in Lightning.
