The Panther

I have a weekend open in September and there are two choices for events.

1 day with Alabama PCA at TGPR
2 day with SCCA at CMP

Anybody have an opinion on either group at these tracks? Just trying to decide where to go.

AU N EGL

IS the SCCA CMP event a race ?

The Panther

It would be PDX with South Carolina SCCA

Bit of a toss up. Neither are my favorites. TGPR is a very small track and generally only 5 cars are on track at any moment in time. I generally just run there to test & tune and it's only about 2.5 hours from ATL.

CMP is a larger/wider track and will eat your tires and brake pads and rotors. TGPR is rough on tires also though.

I'd say CMP -- track is more challenging...

September 18-19. Where is a good place to stay around there? I will be there solo, so it doesn't have to be nice but I prefer not to get stabbed.

5 - 10 min from the track, and cheap. When making reservations make sure they know you are attending a track event and you'll get the "special" rate (its $56 a night if I recall)

You have to eat at the Bantam Chef at least once

You can come run NCCAR with Asphalt Ventures that weekend.

Yea, but thats 8+ hours from ATL

The Panther

There isn't anything else going on that weekend - nothing at Road Atlanta or Roebling. Option 3 is to do donuts in the cul-de-sac while the neighbors kids watch.

we take them for rides when we bed the brakes in the 'hood...

The Executive beat many accommadations provided by my Uncle....

To many cars signed up for TGPR for such a small track
A. you would either get hardly any track time if they cut run groups into 2 seperate groups or
B. it would look like a train going around the track.
