I am looking forward to this event Kevin! There is no registration or sign up yet correct? I noticed that on your forum you will allow bfg drag radials...I don't have to use those for the whole event though do I? Is tire/wheel swapping allowed btwn the autox and drag events?

 

To keep the true meaning of a "streetcar" event, we are not allowing tire swaps. We will allow burnouts on the drags, and have a "prepped track". Tire ratings go down to 60 treadwear this year. (100 last year). Registration will open beginning of January. I will post here when it opens as well. I would wait till the rules and regs are made public though, I shouldn't open up that can of worms, as I chose the "committee" to put the rules/regs etc...together. They put LOTS of hours into them, so I better let them present them when they are ready, or I might get BANNED! You will like them alot I am sure.

 

I won't be bringing the dr's then. I will def. be faster overall with the 615's

 

I might do the opposite with my r-comps, since they will be fine for drag and obviously WAY better for auto-x, but I'm afraid they might be lower than 60 treadwear. If so, then it's 615s for me, too, hah!

 

I will have the Yoko Advan A032R's on, OR the Toyo RA1's. I will be ready!

 

Getting the flyer together, for posters, and other advertisment media-up soon

 

Some WWII Photos from this past JUNE! Enjoy!

 

5 days till registration is OPEN!

 

AMS or Buschur better bring a car out to help bring this guy down. He is entering the "tuner class"for TEAM USA, I got to come up with a car to whoop him. He will be on slicks.
Black vette, upper left. Tuner class does what the rest of us are doing. LONG/FAST autox, and the drags, but UNLIMITED setups. NO TIRE RULES/GUTTED INTERIORS ETC... I think it is a Z07! Aluminum 427ci.

As some may know, and for those who don't, this event is for the kids at Riley Hospital for Children-Here in Indianapolis. For whatever reason, those kids were dealt a bad blow early on in their lives, and because of that, we are coming together, as an automobile community, to roll up our sleeves, tighten the chin-strap on our helmets, and go out there and RIP IT UP on the track, and raise alot of money for those kids!! It will be a day you WON'T FORGET!!
Here is how we are going to spend the day:
It is an Import vs Domestic Shootout, to see "Who has what", in terms of strait-line acceleration, braking, cornering, and overall handling of their cars. This year we are changing the events a bit, to keep it EXCITING to both Participate in, and to WATCH!! The pace and events will be fast, and will be the most fun you can have, and you should go home at the end of the day, with a warm heart, and a grin that won't wipe off!!
Number of cars: The field will be bigger this year, whereas we will have 130 cars. (65 for TEAM IMPORT/65 FOR TEAM USA) Registration will be open for a couple months, to get everyone who wants to compete, a change to enter the "pool" of participants. Teams will be selected at that time, to be evenly matched, in their classes.
Racing Events:
1. Auto-x. Each team member has 3 passes on a large autox course. This event you will race for lowest time/fastest run, which will count for the team.
2. Dragrace: You will have 5 passes down the dragstrip, with LOW E.T. being the time you keep for the team.
3. Carshow for Racers: Your car will be parked and judged and scored. This is your "break time" to go look around/eat/take in the cars in the GENERAL carshow, etc...
This is a "TEAM" effort, whereas 65 cars compete for points for their team, and at the end of the day, we will crown one team: "Winged Warrior III Speed Challenge Champions!" Either Team USA, or Team IMPORT.
There will also be individual battles. Your Team USA class, will be pitted against the same class on the Team IMPORT side! We will award trophies to each class 1st/2nd/3rd.
The Car/Motorcycle/racecar/exotic/truck show will be going on the grounds at the same time. There will be LOTS of trophies/Prizes that are up for grabs, and plenty of Vendors, food drink and more!.
(If you are considering Vending/Sponsoring, let us know as the spaces are filling up)
This is just a brief update on how we are running things for this event, and how things are going to work out for this year, it is OPEN to people with STOCK cars, all the way up to WOW cars, NO EXPIERENCE, to LOTS OF EXPIERENCE- This event is OPEN FOR YOU!
You will walk away from this event, with a happy feeling, that you did the best you could, both for yourself, and the kids who need you, and surely you will have made friends which will last a lifetime!
If you haven't yet, go sign up and join us today!
More to follow on this, but Friday, May 11th, we will be having our TECH inspection at O'Reilly Raceway Park for the cars selected to compete in the WWIII. We will also be allowing some Test and Tune on the DRAGS that evening as well. Track will be open till Midnight, the day before our event.
There is alot more to mention, and that will come out shortly, just don't wan't to get too wordy yet!! We are going to do something special for the kids in the hospital come race day, you surely will think it is special as well. Again, more details out soon. Go sign up and enjoy everything on the site!! www.wingedwarrior.net click WW Forums, or Register tab.
Till later,
Kevin Butterfield D.C.
Chairman of the Board.
