Redline Time Attack, California Speedway, Feb. 10th-11th

[Nikolas@Redline]

Hey Everyone!

I wanted to start a thread for the season opening event of the 2007 Redline:Time Attack! Season. We will be returning to California Speedway, site of the largest Time Attack event ever held in North America, on February 10th-11th, 2007. Last year we had just over 80 competitors and 500 spectators come to the track to witness, and participate in, the excitement that is Time Attack!

We have made great strides in refining our version of Time Attack racing and improving on our ability to deliver the quality, fun and excitement you have come to expect. For 2007 we are launching a new aspect of our events, named "Circuit Life". The Circuit Life portion of our events will encompass the support activities and attractions that you would expect to find at a racing event (Car Show, Vendor Midway, Tech Seminars, Ride Alongs, Parade Laps, After Party, etc). Check out our flier for "Circuit Life":

The industry is really getting behind our series with more and more support. You can expect this support to flow down to our participants in many ways. One way that will be in direct support of our racers is our expanded Contingency Award Program. Aftermarket manufacturers want to show their support of customers who have been supporting them through purchasing their parts, by way of awarding cash prizes if you do well (while using their products).

Media coverage for the 2007 season is greatly improved with commitments from 6 magazines so far and several automotive themed websites. We also expect to receive TV coverage of our larger events, such as California Speedway. Those of you involved in amateur racing understand how much your sponsors (or potential sponsors) appreciate media coverage.

More information on the event and series will be uploaded to our main website this weekend:

If you have any questions for us, please post them here, email us, or call us.

See you at the track!

Nick, You guys put on a great program. It was a pleasure to compete in your series this year and I'm really looking forward to 2007, especially the season finale at Laguna Seca!

It really great to hear the incorporation of all those different aspects to make the Redline Time Attacks a blast for not only tuners and competitiors but for spectators as well. Bringing the BBQs, Car shows, etc... will really turn this from a competition to an event in its own right. I too urge everyone who can to attend these time attacks, their are awsome cars, great battles and great people there.

I will see you in Feb at California Speedway!

-Billy

Nik,

We are looking foward to participating in this event! The new format and events should be a lot of fun for a more diverse group of people.

 

[Nikolas@Redline]

I look forward to seeing you at the event! The NSX at Buttonwillow was simply SICK!

 

[Factor X Motorsports]

Nik,

We have just been invited to participate in the Modified's Tuner Car of the Year Shootout that weekend, so we will see you there for both events!

 

[Nikolas@Redline]

Very Nice! I guess we will see you Friday then as well, since we're helping out with the drag strip and other tests.

Now we just need to get a few more owners in the NSX community to come out to the event and cheer you guys on. Hopefully they'll see these posts and make the trip out. There has to be at least a few NSX owners in SoCal that can make the trip out?!
