ABOUT THE SERIES
ECHC Main > About the Series
 

One day, Karl "Rice" Shultz asked the question… "Why isn't there a racing series for Hondas?" With that question, the East Coast Honda Challenge was born.

Hosted by the NASA Virginia Region, the East Coast Honda Challenge is going into its second season. Points will be accumulated in each of five classes and class series champions will be crowned at the end of each year.

The series philosophy is a simple one. A motorsports showcase for Honda automobiles in a clean, sportsmanlike racing environment. In short… Marque Club racing for Hondas.

The founders of this series believe in a racing environment where a skilled, clean, well executed pass is preferable to "punting" and "leaning" to gain position. It is felt that such an environment fosters sportsmanship and friendship as well as helps racers maintain a reasonable budget.

It is important to note that the ECHC is a wheel to wheel racing series, and will have strict requirements around safety equipment and driver qualifications. Drivers must have a NASA recognized competition license, and vehicle/equipment that meets or exceeds minimum safety requirements in order to compete.

Many thanks to NASA Virginia Region for giving the series this opportunity and providing a place to race.

Feel free to contact us with any questions or ideas.
See you at the track!!!
