Coming up on July 1&2 is our next race in the Ontario Touring Car Challenge. The format of the weekend is a practice and qualifying session Saturday, and an 85 minute endurance race on Sunday. There is free camping, so feel free to come for the entire weekend, although most of the action will be on Sunday.

We will be racing our NX2000 racecar against other Nissans, BMWs, Hondas, VWs and other touring cars.
The race is taking place at Mosport, a 2.5 mile roadcourse about an hour northeast of Toronto.

Post your email address if you are interested in free tickets for this event.

It's called the Ontario Touring Car Challenge. The rules are fairly simple, maximum displacement of 2800cc, max overbore 0.040", turbocharging is only allowed if the car came turbocharged from the factory, or if the motor came turbocharged somewhere else in the world (SR20DET is allowed). Must run Toyo RA-1 tires.

Competition is equalized by weight. Weight is determined by your
-Displacement
-Number of cams
-Number of valves
-Number of cylinders
-Brake rotor diameter (front and rear)
-Number of pistons per caliper (front and rear)
-Solid rear axle or IRS.

Cars with variable valve timing, turbos or AWD have to add extra weight.

Very simple rulebook.

Cost is deceivingly high. Figure $5000 for basic race prep (not talking performance at all, mostly safety mods)

-Approved roll cage
-Racing seat
-Approved racing harnesses
-Window net
-Master Switch
-Fire extinguisher
-All kinds of stuff that you don't expect
etc.

Also figure a new set of tires every other weekend, brake pads every 3rd weekend. Also need a tow vehicle and trailer.

Also need a race license. Schools are usually in April/May and cost $800 or so, you must provide your own car.

The best way to get into it is to get your license and rent a ride in an entry level car until you get a feel for it. This way your budget is fixed (maintenance, transportation, other costs of the car are not your problem) and you can concentrate on learning to drive instead of worrying about keeping the car running. After you get comfortable and are aware of the costs, consider building your own car.

Jeff...can you send one to mathieubrazeau @ hotmail.com

Still not sure if im going.

You should come.

We fired the engine up tonight with the new setup, it is one mean machine :cool:

We have some minor stuff to do, then we'll be ready. Turns out we needed a new valve cover gasket, should be in Monday. Rear window will be in this weekend and the tow hooks, thats about it..oh and decals, hopefully Perry has them ready for us..

I've seen the car and engine....bad mother f'in egg boys. Cant wait to see ya kick some over priced machines..hahahahha.

Thanks for the tickets!!

I am definitely going be there, I need to feast my eyes on this beast

trini

Just got back from the dyno.

201 WHP all motor :biggthump

Nice numbers man!!! I'm guessing you fine tuned the beast....more power...more wins....lmao!!!

Any more tuning before sunday?

-Ryan-

We only spent 2 hours on the dyno, and the tuning is close to being perfect. There is probably another 5hp or so left in tuning, but it will likely stay this way for the remainder of the season.

New coilovers going on the car this week, then it's off to the track Thursday night.
