Big question:

Will laps be timed ?

[Dave Moore]

I don't have an official answer but with all the insurance stuff, my guess is no

 

[Andrew2KRT10]

Oh, I thought it was this time. Thought I heard the news from someone. Too bad. Timing those sessions, like is done at Limerock is long overdue.

what the policy concerning rain? the event runs no matter what? weather.com is predicting isolated T-storms throughout the day

 

[Andrew2KRT10]

Whatever happens in NY is no indication of what happens in NJ. I say go guys and hope for the best.

[Andrew2KRT10]

Guys, come on, make me sorry I didn't go. How was it ??

AC

 

[motor602]

holy ****...since no one showed up, it was virtually an open track, everything was unbelievable save for the torrential downpour at 2:30

 

[Andrew2KRT10]

I was on that track once during a downpour on back straight with my top off ! I realized if I kept it at over 80, the rain would go right over my head and I hardly got wet. Still *****.

[Nader]

The day was great. We got in 5 20 miinute sussions before the rain. it last an hour and there were cars back on the track.

This is always an awesome event. I want to thank the NJ club for their hospitality. you cant beat 150mph runs on the straights! Man what a blast. I am counting the days to do it again...

Oh by the way I will have some pics and videos posted shortly.
