Sweet, just signed up as an instructor for the May event. Looks like the SO will be driving the car too.

Hi Jim,

Count us IN for the June 22 & 23 event! We understand the June event is filling quickly, so if you are an advanced driver, and you want to come out and play, do not delay.

Incidentally, this is a GREAT GROUP with which to run, and a very well organized event.

Thanks! Tell your instructor friends, we could always use more. See you in May!

Would a logbook and a sanction from a club in New Mexico (Southwest Motor Sports) make me eligible for the solo event in June?

Thanks
Scott

Hi Scott,

It depends what your logbook and reference say.

To be certain, please forward a copy of those items to our Chief Instructor (contact info here: Niagara Region Porsche Club of America) for his consideration. As long as you have been driving solo in advanced (or higher) run groups, with a sufficient # of track days under your belt, you should have no problems getting in.

Sharing fine food and drink with the DE Committee after the track goes cold helps too.

Hope to see you there!

I completely understand the value of baksheesh. I am a veteran of the souk.

I hope to make the October event to get an earl(ier) start on Fall, as long as it doesn't compete with the ALMS race at Road Atlanta.

Cheers
Scott

This is a great region to run with. I attended their advanced event last June and can say without a doubt it was the best event ever!

Hey, lets get your DE schedule posted on Welcome to Where2Race - Where2Race to further promote your events and attract new attendees. In addition, your members can add them to a personalized calendar to keep track of their racing schedule and never miss an event again.

Surely you jest! At the current cost of track time, we would not WANT to be on course with ANYONE who might forget when they were scheduled.

I have our schedule tatooed to my right palm, and a "backup" on the bottom of my foot.
