PERFORMANCE DRIVING

- FROM STREET TO TRACK


In order to provide the best competition for drivers and to minimize the time spent in the pits for the Performance Parity Time, cars will be grouped according to their performance potential, i.e. cars with similar engine sizes or lap times will be grouped to run together. The general guideline will start with four basic groupings:

  A. Large engine sports cars
  B. Small engine sports cars
  C. Large engine touring cars
  D. Small engine touring cars

The final grouping of cars will be determined by the entry list for a specific event. For example, if the entry contains enough cars of a specific marque, such as Mustangs, SATCAR Officials may choose to have one race group just for Mustangs and they would not be combined with other cars that they would normally compete against, such as Camaros and Firebirds.

Organizers will determine tentative groupings after receiving the entries for the event and prior to the event. Each Entrant will be told his/her assigned group at registration for the event. Organizers reserve the right to move a car/driver combination to another group if the lap times are significantly different from the original assigned group.

Group sizes will be dictated by the length of the track. The maximum number of cars that will be permitted per group will be 10 cars per mile of track length.
