The day will be split into alternating groups: Green / White (Novice), Blue (Intermediate) and Red (Advanced).

A question I have that I will post instead of call is about insurance.
I have Hagerty ins. and they will cover my car
right up to the track but not on it. What can you tell me
about ins. on the track ? Did I see somthing posted about
VCA insurance while on the track or would I be on my own?

Insurance Q&A:
No you are not covered under the VCA or Event insurance for any damages.
Most insurance carriers do not cover track or event insurance.
You can call Anthony & Company Insurance Inc. I believe they have a separate track insurance that will cover what you are looking for. 908-806-8844

I am in. I had a blast last year. Question can I run in the Novice group without an instructor? Only reason I ask is I dont plan on tearing the tires off but comfortable enough to drive alone on the track. I would run intermediate but dont have an extinguisher or fire suit.

I hate to say it but if we do not get attendance for this event then it may have to be cancelled. We need at least 45 cars to break even, or make it cost effective. The club will lose in the long run. If we cancel the event, we may not be able to get it back next year or the year after. Please don't let this happen. If you plan on attending mail in your registration form or fax to 732-714-8404 so we can get a head count. We will honor the price shown so you will not pay the day of price if you come late.

Thanks
Tom Roeller

Tom, how many are we short right now? I'll push some of my buddies. Maybe Joe Moore could invite the Ferrari Club???

I would be willing to pay more if we don't get the needed numbers. Not just to keep this great event going, but it would be worth more to have fewer cars on the track. It may be worth asking those who have signed up before pulling the plug...
