Wink Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 I know Mazda has opened up to Champ, however I had trouble getting them the official results they required to validate my racer status. They need results that state the type of car raced and drivers names. Is there an official result that has these? Any help would be appreciated @Bill Strong 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gearhead_42 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 That's a REALLY good point, as there is currently NO driver tracking system for races... it has been brought up several times in the last few years, but thus far no solution has been implemented.

mhr650 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 I did this several years ago. I was able to get someone from the home office to send me race entries with the name of the drivers on it. That worked and I got registered, but of course you have to reregister every year and since I wasn’t really using the service to buy parts I let it go and didn’t keep my registration current. Now if they are going to actually pay contingency that is a whole other deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alchemy Autosport Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 You can call them too and they are very helpful. They allowed me to slip thru with just the team name and then race results. But I havent renewed in a few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Bill Strong Posted November 6, 2018 Administrators Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Mazda Motorsports' ChampCar Contingency update. This has taken a huge amount of work on Mazda Motorsports and on ChampCar's side. We are almost there. Mazda Motorsports has approved our process of how we document who you are and how you finished. This was completed Yesterday. We are just awaiting final word from Mazda Motorsports to confirm their testing and audit procedures are working as they should. I am now awaiting Mazda images and trademark/copyright info. Their people that handle this were at SEMA and are in the middle of traveling back. So I am hoping I get this info next week. Then I will get to work finishing a ChampCar - Mazda Motorsport page that will let you know what the program is, what races contingency will be paid out at, where to go to get parts, and a where to get the required paperwork. Mazda will then make links from their website to ours. Once complete and tested, we will make a news blast on Mazda's site and ours about the program. Look for it in December. If in the meantime you need info, please contact Mike Chisek at info@champcar.org 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
