About the Stock Car
Series
Take sixteen almost
identical Nissan B13 sedans, beautifully painted in
sixteen different sponsor's colors and logos, give them
to a mix of experienced ex-race drivers, hot current
racers and a few rookies, put them through a twelve-race
championship series and what you have is the Carib
Beer Stock Car Series 2000.
The brainchild of
Trinidad & Tobago's most famous race driver
Frankie Boodram and brought to you by
Speed Promotions Limited and
Carib
Beer,
races take place at the one mile Wallerfield
Racing Circuit,
Trinidad and run to the end
of October when a
champion driver will be determined. The races have lived
up to their promise to bring excitement to drivers and
spectators alike. Sponsors and drivers share the best
starting positions throughout the series since no timed
qualifying is done. Instead, grid positions for the first
of the two races on each of the six race days are based
on a draw, the positions being reversed for the second
race. Races are twelve lap sprints and a simple
point
system which
keeps everyone in close contention will determine the
ultimate winner of the series.
The focus of these pages
is to allow drivers, sponsors and fans to track the
progress of the championship on a meeting-by-meeting
basis.

Points are only awarded
to cars still running at the end of each race. At the end
of the series, if any drivers have equal points, final
positions will be based on best finishing positions
throughout the series. Each driver's lowest point scoring
day will be dropped when totaling the points and
finishing positions, so only their five best days will
count.

The
Circuit
The Wallerfield circuit
is situated in north-central Trinidad and was originally
part of a World War Two US air base. It is a flat track,
made up of large concrete slabs that have survived since
the war. The surface is very abrasive and somewhat bumpy
where the concrete has broken-up or sunk slightly. This
area has been used for motor sport since the
fifties.
