2019 North/South Challenge Cup

SMRI and ASMA are pleased to announce the renewal of the North/South Challenge Cup for the 2019 racing season!  The dates of the two-event series are to be April 6-7 at Arroyo Seco Raceway and July 20-21 at Sandia Speedway. 

Classes for North/South Challenge Cups are Unlimited Grand Prix/Formula Arroyo, Expert Middleweight Superbike/Expert Middleweight Superbike, Novice Grand Prix/Formula Amateur, Novice Middleweight Superbike/Amateur Middleweight Superbike, and Amateur 500 Supersport/Lightweight Grand Prix.

As in 2019, there will also be a team competition for a North/South Club Challenge.  Each Club will assemble a five-member team for each event and each member will count his or her best result of the day in any of the five contested classes.  Teams may be changed between rounds, but the teams for each round must be declared in writing prior to the first race at each event.  Scoring will be by the Olympic system for team and individual classifications (one point for first place, two for second, three for third, etc.) with the lowest aggregate score winning each class.  RACERS MUST COMPETE AT BOTH ROUNDS TO WIN AN INDIVIDUAL NORTH/SOUTH CHALLENGE CUP, though teams may be comprised of members who attend only one round.

At both events the Saturday will be a practice day (track day) and Sunday will be a race day.  

ASMA members are welcome to register on this site as "Reciprocal Racer" and register for races online.  If you need help registering or just figuring out which classes you'd like to race in call Scott at (505) 238-0323 and we'll get you up and running!

SMRI will host a POT LUCK DINNER on the evening of Saturday, July 20.  We will provide hamburgers and hot dogs as well as buns and a few condiments.  We ask attendees to bring something to augment this for everyone to share.  It might be a dessert, it might be potato salad, it might be a warm fuzzy kiss.....but bring something!!!!!  :)
