37th Annual Race of Champions Update

After many weeks of discussions with Daytona International Speedway we have come to an arrangement that allows for the tradition of the CCS Race of Champions to continue for the 37th time. There are major changes due to the the changes made by the Daytona Beach City Council regarding the extra display and vendor restrictions that prevent the normal Expo outside DIS during the Biketoberfest Rally.


The main change is DIS will not have any vendor displays so access to the speedway will be restricted to racers, family, crews and staff members. No spectator tickets will be issued for this event. All participants are restricted to the Blue garage area, the Rider/Owner lot and overflow parking by the International Horseshoe. All tow vehicles must be removed from the blue garages to allow for maximum occupancy and access. Remember the Fan Zone and concessions will not be open so plan accordingly.


As we have stated, those of you that were entered for the March 2020 event are already pre-entered for the 2020 Race of Champions. Just remember you need to bring your gate pass from March 2020 event and exchange it for the current October ROC gate pass.


Camping is also at a premium since we only have 70 spaces in the R/O lot for rent. If you have a R/O pass from March 2020, it will be honored in March of 2021, NOT the ROC. Please read the ROC mailer for complete information on the R/O reservations.


If you had rented a garage in March 2020 and wish to use it for October 2020, please email Chris Middleton at chris@ccsracing.us and confirm that you want to use it. We will be in the Blue Garages and will limit the access to the paddock to just the North (Rolex) and South (International Horseshoe) gates. We will have to vacate the garage by 6pm Friday, 60 minutes after the last checkered flag on Saturday and then Sunday night we need to completely vacate the Blue garages 120 minutes after the last checkered flag.


Unfortunately due to ongoing and ever changing Covid-19 restrictions, the physical awards ceremony will not be held in 2020. What we will do instead is have a quick Victory Lane photo op for the winner of each class holding a generic "Rocky", (Our CCS National Championship statue). That trophy will stay in Victory Lane for the next class winner to use for their photo so please don't kiss Rocky, Covid-19 and all. Your class specific awards will be available in Suite B-2 as soon as the race is final. Engraved nameplates for ROC Champions will be mailed within 7 days of the event.

37th Annual Race of Champions ROC Challenge


At this time we are planning to run a purse only Team Challenge event giving you an opportunity for 55 laps of fun on the famed Daytona high banks. While tentatively we will run the standard format (GTO/GTU/GTL) but we are in negotiations with a sponsor to up the ante, considerably. Part of that negotiation are which rules package to run. Whether we use the standard Team Challenge, modified single Daytona SportBike rules or a GTO/GTU Dash for the cash,

Well, here we are at Daytona International Speedway !
Weather is NICE !
No infield camping   Bathrooms and showers are locked closed :-(
Using the blue pits only.
I will be trying to get some still shots in the pits.   We are also going to try facebook live of a few things.  If we succeed look at the facebook CCS racing group.
55 lap race is the first race after lunch break tomorrow, Saturday.
