SKIP BARBER CHALLENGE
The Skip Barber Challenge, a new loyalty venture, is eligible to select Skip Barber customers who have participated in at least one full regional championship season. The enhanced series is designed
|
 |
to give the drivers the opportunity to experience and compete in the Dodge Reynard 98E -- the same car raced in the Barber Dodge Pro Series -- under familiar Skip Barber regional rules.
The Challenge is made up of three race weekends, each weekend featuring two races as well
|
 |
as practice and qualifying sessions. Drivers participating in the Challenge have the opportunity to test the Reynard Dodge 98E in advance of the event to become familiar with the increased performance potential of the Dodge-powered carbon fiber monocoque racecar. As with any Barber Dodge Pro Series event, drivers benefit from PI data acquisition available in the Dodge Reynard 98E as well as feedback from Barber Dodge Pro Series Coaches.
|
2003's Challenge will run at Sebring International Raceway in the Modified and Full Course track configurations. Between on track sessions, drivers can review their respective data analysis and discuss track performance with coaches and competitors. Gourmet hospitality, enhanced paddock presence and other perks round out an exceptional experience.
