VIPER / Ferarri war at Pocono May 2nd

[VIPORXXX]

The Ferarri Club, Northeast region is having a track event on May 2nd at
Pocono Raceway. This event is open to all Viper owners. The specific details
is available at their website www.focner.com

I spoke with Richard Heyderman (908-412-9908, ext 102) from the FOC/NER and he said they would waive the $100 late registration fee for this event.

This is a fantastic event and a chance to run against some of the most beautiful
and fastest cars in the world. It's especially fun to view these cars from your rear view mirror.

Cost of this event I believe in $295 and includes breakfast and lunch

MK:
It gets taken care of right there. The event is very well organized, and worth the money.
The line for the tech inspection gets long quick. Remember this is not just Ferarris and Vipers, but Vettes and any other specialty car that the Ferarri club felt like inviting. The term invitation always made me laugh. They want as many people as posible to enter in order cover expenses. Even though the Driver's meeting doesn't usually start @ 7:30 as planned, and usually starts @ 8, I still plan to be at the track by at least 7 to unload my car and get organized.


See you there.

Thanks Andrew! Look forward to seeing you there? DO you know where the unofficial breakfast before the meet is??? I will probably drive down there Thurs PM and stay at the hotel referred to in on the entry form.
Thanks

What course I can't get the site to load.

 

[Andrew2KRT10]

There is usually some snacks in a room before the driver's meting. No special breakfast. I'd eat before hand if I were you, or bring something. I'm going out early Friday morning.

Course: Enter at end of pits, into turn one, back straight, turn 2, then into the infeild, out almost at the begining of front straight, long drag race to turn one.

Forecast is not looking good. I am hoping that the rain is comming east and will be over NY while we are clear in Jersey.

Weathermen should be held responsible for their forecasts! The forecast was not looking to good the night before. However, friday was overcast most of the day but NO RAIN, in the afternoon the sun appeared and it turned out to be a good race day. The only disappointment on the day was only 2 Vipers showed up.
What a shame! I remember 2 years ago when about 10-12 Vipers showed up and it was truley Viper/Ferarri Wars. Having got that off my chest it was still a good day, saw some beautiful ferarris and even spanked a few. We got six 25 minute run sessions in on the day.

Fast Eddie

Yeah, me and Ed B. Had a great time. only one small incident of an F-40 that went off course and cracked up the front spoiler. Only a smal amount of rain drops twice that didn't even make it to the ground. Weather was cool and partly sunny.

I stopped in Jersey on the way back and left my car with East Coast Supercharging to have NX System installed. Couldn't resist.
