Potential[edit]

This subject has potential. Worthy of some expert attention. Adrian M. H. 20:15, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Confused[edit]

I'm confused: "The series was founded in 1972, and was called "showroom stock.""

Showroom stock still exists (SSC, SSB, SSA) in amateur club racing (SCCA). How did this series sever from SS? My understanding is that the allowable modifications are much greater in this series then they ever were (or are) in showroom stock. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thefirebuilds (talk • contribs) 18:56, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

Could someone summarize this for me? 76.126.15.78 (talk) 00:02, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.world-challenge.com/series.php?page=history

You could do it. --Falcadore (talk) 20:49, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was Move Parsecboy (talk) 01:31, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't this page be moved to Speed World Challenge, per WP:MOSCAPS and per Speed (TV channel)? --Falcadore (talk) 20:48, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nomination. MOSCAPS and MOSTM favor using Speed since "SPEED" is just stylized. TJ Spyke 17:42, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Also a list of past champions would be good. --Falcadore (talk) 02:33, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Previous Vehicles[edit]

Why is there a list of previous vehicles? Isn't that a list for the sake of it? Why is there a list of old cars, but not of the drivers who have won championships? --Falcadore (talk) 09:22, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I used the website's archive for the list. It has the seasonal results, so if anyone wishes, they can create seasonal pages using the archive. 67.188.45.27 (talk) 23:52, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Infrormation specific to a particular season, like for example the Speed World Challenge#Current Vehicles (specific to 2009 season) section should be moved to that season. This article should provide an overview reflecting the entire history of the series. A list of champions is probably the most urgently needed additions. A list of eligible vehicles, is just a long list which looks bad. Such a list would be much better incorporated into text description. Individual seasons could carry the information as to which vehicles raced when. The problem with long lists as there are is they provide no context. Which cars race in which period? What year Chevroelt Camaros and who did they race against? Surely Porsche 996s didn't race agianst Suzuki Swifts? Which kind of Honda Accord, the European of the American version? Without context the list confuses more than it informs.

Statistics need context. --Falcadore (talk) 03:04, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies. The archive is in PDF format, so it's hard to view. Plus, there are at least 20 entrants per race, and at least 10 races per season, so that's at least 200 entrants per year to view. Again, for cleanup, you can use the archive. It would be greatly appreciated. 67.188.45.27 (talk) 06:23, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Table[edit]

Could someone fix the table? Thank you. 76.126.21.16 (talk) 21:57, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What's wrong with it? Can't read you mind. --Falcadore (talk) 22:14, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The "GT" and "LMP" parts need to be removed. 169.233.57.145 (talk) 03:56, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Name[edit]

The series has been renamed the SCCA Pro Racing World Challenge. Could this page be renamed? 169.233.57.145 (talk) 03:56, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Name Change[edit]

I have changed the name of this article to reflect the new sponsorship for 2011. Several articles on the website confirm this name change. AmericanLeMans (talk) 17:27, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Seasonal pages[edit]

I have created seasonal pages dating back to 1999. I would like some help with them.Thank you. AmericanLeMans (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

2012 Season[edit]

Could someone please update the 2012 seasonal page? I cannot edit the results table for some reason. AmericanLeMans (talk) 04:27, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I added the results and fixed the table. Bakkster Man (talk) 14:13, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

GT-X and GTS-X[edit]

Don't they have GT-X and GTS-X? Wolf O'Donnel (talk) 06:31, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
