fuelman--
I'd like to drive over from Sarasota just to watch and listen--not compete or run on the track. Can I do this? What would be the charge for my wife and I? I've never been able to participate in any of the North Central VCA events so i'd like to give this event a shot. Thanks--Dave

 

[MTGTS]

Dave it would be free unless you and your wife signed up for ride a long hot laps (highly suggested) I'm def. coming, just not sure if I'm gonna run the car or not. I'll see how everything goes at Road Atlanta in a couple weeks then decide

MTGTS--
Thanks for the info--we will be there--thinking about the hot laps, however was there for the NARRA last May and witnessed a Z06 get totaled and a few other incidents. Not sure if we are up to the risks being OLD and HEALTHY--kind of like to stay that way --Dave

If Lee ends up bringing the Comp Coupe out I'm sure there will be a line for rides.

Just wanted to give a special thanks to Cathy, Jim, Tina, and Lee for pulling this event together. We had an amazing time learning about our cars and the track. We also wanted to take all you that were kind enough to give us ride-a- longs. Because of you we were bitten by the track bug that I’m not sure I can afford.
