Although finishing order doesn't really matter, in the event of a tie , finishing order was determined by overall number of laps completed.
The turnouts this year have been lighter than the first season, and I am working to try and make the series more appealing to a broader audience. I know that on my end I need to step up my game as promoter of the series, but I would also ask that the host sites try to bolster the efforts for bigger local crowds.
For the next season, which will begin in September the TCS 1031/1032 tires will be the spec tire for the UF1 Midwest Series. We will allow the Pardus tires to be used, although the performance difference is pretty obvious.
I have not locked down a defined schedule, however the following are the host locations we are working with to hold events for the next series.
NORCAR at the Gate-Brunswick,OH
The Track @ Harbor Hobbies- Winthrop.IL
HobbyStop West- Toledo,OH
Summit Raceway- Ft Wayne, IN
Carbondale,IL
ProLevel RC- St Louis, MO
I have made the decision to go back to the 2 day race format.
We hold 6 2 day events for a total of 12 race days.
To be eligible for the points you must run 8 of the 12 race days.
We will hold events in September, October, and November take December off and race January, February, and March.
For those that don't know, the UF1 Midwest website is live at
uf1midwest.com we will be posting all future information there.
Message me with any thoughts that you might have, I will be posting the top 10 in points as soon as I get them updated.
