Details on Romeo Kapudija

Hi,

I was wondering, does anyone know some racing details about this driver?

In the 1999 Atlantic series
1 race. 1 win. 1 pole position. 1 podium

I am guessing fastest lap too :confused:

The racing version of a one-hit-wonder? :D

He raced in the Long Beach race of 1999. In that race only four class B cars were entered and only two saw the checkered flag. (At one or perhaps two races that season there was only 1 class B car on the grid)

After some Googleing I found out that he's raced in SCCA in Formula Fords, ALMS and in Grand Am Cup.

This season he seems to be back in Grand Am racing for Matt Connolly Motorsports in a BMW M3.

I guess I have some updating to do. :)

Wish I was in that race :D

I didn't know there were classes in the Atlantic's, I guess now only on class?


I heard this guy will be racing in the Rolex series this year.

BTW the class B of the British F3, I think has 5 cars or less, and in one race, only two finished.

I think these type of classes shouldn't have classifications if they are less than 12 :confused:


Thank you Andreas, his stats look better now, I will let you know If I find more info.

He used a Ralt. :eek:

When was the last time you heard of somebody using a Ralt...

Try tell that to the guy who won the series. :D

I've set up a rule that if there are two classes in the official results and they are using different spec cars I display them separately. In, for example, the National class of the British F3 series the National class drivers are not allowed to score points in the Championship class so they are racing a bit more on their own than other B-classes.

Regarding Atlantics there were a class B from the mid nineties (from the top of my head) to two years ago. In the early nineties the series still allowed different makes of chassis so it made sense to let all the old ones race as well. In the early 2000s I guess it was a good way of filling up the failing grid sizes as well.... When they got the new car and rules for Champ Car Atlantic the B class was dropped.
