> > Have you ever wanted to be a part of a Formula One, CART,

> > Do you think you have what it takes to be competitive with
> some of the
> best
> > in the nation over a week of non-stop motorsports
> decision-making and
> > racing?  Open Track Challenge (OTC) will put you to the
> test as we cover a
> > weeks worth of track events, roughly two-hundred miles of
> travel each day,
> > and some of the most rugged and hot terrain in the the country.
> >
> > There are some events similar to OTC that test your ability

> > more so than they test driver skill. Our multivenue event

> minutes of blind
> track
> > time, during OTC you will drive, on average, 200 miles a
> day for roughly 2
> > hours of track time at each of our venues. This will be a
> track guys' (and
> > gals!) event through and through.

> > Are you the local hot shoe in your Region?  Do you wonder

> > environment where some of the top drivers in the country
> (or world, for
> that
> > matter) can beat on each other for a full week on a variety
> of track types
> > and environments.  The format will consist of time trials
> similar in style
> > to Formula One practice and qualifying sessions. This
> format lets you show
> > what you are made of without significant risk to yourself
> or others. It is
> > time to live up to your regional hype and put away the keyboards.

> Want

> that perform and
> > are reliable under the conditions you expose them too?  OTC
> will provide
> an
> > arena and competition format that allows manufacturers and
> car owners to
> > show who has the best all-around car for the road and track.
> >
> > Want to go to "Go-Fast Fantasy Camp" or "Go-Fast Top Gun?"
> OTC is it!  We
> > will create an atmosphere where Joe Arbitrary Track Guy can
> play on the
> same
> > field as the some of the guys he sees on TV and in the
> magazines.  The
> > format also allows the weekend racer to act like a team
> owner for the week
> > in choosing their teammate, their use of resources, and a
> competitive
> > strategy.
> >
> > We will make available some of the best tracks in the
> country within one
> > week's time to those who may never be able to see them
> otherwise.  Even
> for
> > those that may not be competitive, this is an ideal
> motorsports vacation.
> >
> > OTC supports many competitive classes which give the participant the
> choice
> > of street tires, race tires, and trailering options.  A
> Constructor's
> > Championship has also been instituted to reflect the
> automakers' exposure.
