The Series |
|
The Allison Legacy Touring Series offers a
professional to intermediate racing program.
This unique and innovative program attracts
drivers, new and old, with or without
experience, and has proven to be a valuable
stepping stone for drivers looking to further a
racing career.
“It’s important to offer a program for everybody
who wants to be involved,” explained Kenny
Allison. “We are growing as a series and as a
promotional outlet. Drivers are able to
get valuable exposure and experience with our
program that can contribute to furthering a
racing career. At the same time, people
who want to get into racing just for fun can
maintain and operate the car in this series on a
minimal budget, and with little or no
experience.”
There were 13 Touring Races scheduled for 2023.
2024 Races are being scheduled over the winter. Membership and
license to drive in the Allison Legacy race
series is $130.00 per year. That is for
car owners or drivers or a combination of a car
owner/driver. Crew members are $80 each. In the
case of different crew members at different
tracks, there is a temporary single event
license that they must get and it is $10. There
are entry fees for all of the Touring races and
they are $50 each race. A purse is paid for
each race to all drivers.
Tires cost around
$146 each and can be used for more than one
race. The engines
are sealed and the only thing one can do to them
is change the jets and timing.
The only way to
make sure that everything is legal on the car
you may be purchasing is to bring it here to the
Allison Brothers shop for them to check it over.
You can email to
legacycars@aol.com. There is a car registration form
also that will need to be completed each year.
Cost is $10. All cars have a serial number and
they are registered by that number and the
engine number is registered also.
If the driver or
anyone on the team is under 16 years old, they
must fill out minor releases for CompCar.

Rulebook Highlights |

provide for orderly conduct of racing events and
to establish minimum acceptable requirements for
such events. These rules shall govern the

ultimately the obligation of each participant to

a foolproof set of rules and regulations.
The spirit and intent of the rules contained
within the rulebook are going to be the
standards by which Allison Legacy Car racing

authorized to decide if an equipment change is
an attempt to beat the rules. This can and
will disqualify an entry in violation of the
spirit and intent of these rules.

Campaign Cost |
|
Approximate cost per race to campaign an
Allison Legacy car is minimal compared to other
professional racing series. Tires, fuel, oil and most of the other
normal maintenance items associated with a race
car plus travel expense sets the cost per race. Once the car is set up to a driver’s
particular style or liking it becomes very low
maintenance and can be easily serviced by an
individual with normal mechanical skills. |

experience in the sport and focused it to put
the fun back in racing, while promoting a
