In 2011 WR-Racing is building an all new car and entering ONLY in the NDR Ultimate Speed class
in Akron. We respectfully acknowledge that our knowledge of high speed wheels is non-existent and so it is our goal to compete
in the NDR event this year and finally have some fun racing again.
I encourage anyone with a passion for designing and building a unique gravity powered racer to rise to the
challenge and enter this race. For those of us who built Derby cars as kids before the kit car program came along, we know
the challenge and the thrill of seeing how imaginative we can be in constructing a competitive racer.
This NDR event should take wheels out of the equation and make the race soley about the car and the driver.
For anyone wanting to participate in a wheel race, the AA USC event is still alive and kicking and I will certainly be there
to watch and to cheer for my favorites.
But the NDR event will be more about fairness without taking creativity out of the equation and that is
what has always interested me most about gravity powered racing. In this sport it is simply the builder and the driver versus
friction and gravity. What could be purer or sweeter than that??
