Easy, Easy. I grew up in Wis and did my first three races on Road America back in 1978. Plus watching lots of races though the 60, and early 70s.

Elkhart Lake WI




OK eh?

BLUE group

1997 RED

Only about 450 miles away. Just a quick 8 hours

Was just at the track last weekend in a blinding snowstorm on Saturday 120 down the front staright will make you concentrate very hard for the right turn at the end. I now have fingers grips in the steering wheel though.
Can't wait for this.

I'll be there. Black C5 coupe, instructor group.

I'm surprised it isn't all sold out yet. Come on guys, this is a legendary track and a great time of the year to be there. And if you haven't been there before, it's an absolute must, don't miss it.

Oh, Oh, looks like I'll be consigned to the evening run group! Tom probably even knows a route from NC to WI that's only 250 miles.

Default on a sad note

well i was in,

after i regerstered i started to look at the info packet. and this year there is a new rule, i understand the rule but won't be able to comply by the time the event comes around.

* Harnesses and Seats – Restraints and seating must be the same for driver and passenger. A driver cannot use a harness unless there is an equal one for the passenger. Harnesses must pass through the seat and not around it and be installed as per manufacturers guidelines. Installation accuracy is the responsibility of the student.

i running five point harness with my stock mid-back seats. but the Roc said this is an absolut rule. which i understand. this upcoming winter project is to put in a full roll cage with race seats but i can't get it done before august.

i'll just have to wait till next year, i hope this won't be a problem for the autocross next weekend at NCM.
