Corvette Challenge Club Challenge Cup
Hello. My name is Al Conner. I have been an active Corvette Club member for over thirty years and know the need for a club to find new activities that keep it fresh, draw new members and keep the core of the club coming back for a new and different way to enjoy the vehicle we all have come to love.
As club coordinator for the East Coast Supercharging Corvette Challenge, I would like to invite you and your club members to participate in one of the fastest growing Corvette activities sweeping across the nation. The East Coast Supercharging Corvette Challenge Drag Racing Series is a bracket (handicapped) racing series held at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ for Corvettes only. Many of us take our Corvettes to the drag strip only once or twice a year, yet many others never take the opportunity at all. We hope that you take this information packet to your next regular meeting and share this unique concept of a competition among ALL Corvette Clubs in the Northeast.
Starting in 2003, Corvette Clubs can compete for the Corvette Challenge Club Challenge Cup. Simply said, every point a racer earns is credited to the club the driver has declared. At the end of the season, the club with the most points is named the Club Challenge Cup Champion. We feel the new format has all the right stuff to make for one great shoot-out for all the Corvette Clubs in the northeast region. Now the ball is in your court, we need you and your club to show us that our hunch was right and a competition between all Corvette Clubs will bring more fun and excitement to you and your organization as well as the Corvette Challenge.
