The Intermarque Challenge will be running over the Saturday and Sunday having practice, qualifying and 2 five lap races (one for each driver if two drivers are listed for 1 hour race). On the Sunday the race will be the feature event for the round with the 1 hour "endurance" style race including driver swap if 2 drivers are entered.

Currently every round of the series has been won buy a Porsche with Maserati, Ferrari and Dodge close behind them. The series administrators are interested in seeing some Japanese cars out competing with the European and American cars. Unlike a few of the other sports cars series turbo cars are not only able to race but are welcomed as the series organizers drive Turbo Porsche's.

So if anyone has any questions or is interested in coming out to try and stop Porsche from getting a clean sweep of the series PM me or contact John Good via the email address provided above. If not come out and enjoy watching some great cars fight it out on track.

There will also be a sprint round held at Calder in September if anyone is interested please let me know.

I'd Love to race in this series... reminds me of the old GTP/procar days with all types of cars battling it out. I went to watch AMRS Intermarque round 2 at Calder in March and there is some serious cars in this category and i don't consider my car to be at that level.. I don't think I could justify the $550 per round entry costs without a couple of major sponsors.. maybe one day. I know a few damn quick GTR's that would give the leading porsche a run for their money

the series has different classes in them to make sure you are racing with similar paced cars (forgot to mention that in the first post).

I understand that it can get quite expensive if you are funding your self. Many of the current teams / drivers are self funded so they don't attend every round of the series.

Sorry not getting back to you , at the time i didn't have the entry fees. I know they can vary for us due to the higher track time ect.

If anyone is interested please let me know ASAP as entries are closing in the next few days

This round is really shaping up to be a the best one this year, so if you aren't competing and want to see some great racing head out to Winton (I'm just PISSED i won't be making it over there for the round)
