i've done a 2-day event with porsche club of america before and it was well run! very much looking forward to this one as well.

Schattenbaum is a favorite group of mine--first group I solo'd with!
I highly recommend them. They run HPDE right in that perfect middle ground--safe, lots of track time, not too crowded but lots of skilled drivers and fast cars. Hope next year they put Summit back on the schedule.

Wicked Weasel

I have run in their instructor group a few times and always enjoyed it.

Not sure yet if I can do both days, but I think I'll still sign up. I'm still pretty new at this, I guess it's not a big deal if I can only make one day?

last time i went there were people that only ran one day. not sure how it works with the payments though. i'd say just go to the link above and send the group-owner (right hand side on the bottom) an email to find out.

then again, $340 is pretty much what you pay for most 1-day events anyway.

btw, unlike with other groups you can't just do the tech inspection yourself. you'll have to get the tech inspection signed off by a shop/technician. last time I had it done at ECS and they were OK with it.

I've run with them many times and they run great events-- well organized, safe and the guys are friendly.

If you email their contact I bet he'd work out a one day deal-- he's usually quite responsive.

Thanks for the info. I'll let you guys know what I find out in case anyone else is wondering.

weekend bump

i still only see one vette signed up

I'd really like to go, but I can't make it Thurs. I would be in the green group and need an instructor, which I'm told can make scheduling issues.

diddiyo

why's that? i'm in the green group as well. not that many cars have signed up yet for the green group, i wouldn't expect any issues.

NOSLO6

A month in advance you shouldn't have issues and their instructors are great-- if you attempt to register it will show you if green/yellow is full. Would be surprised if that's true for a late season event.

The reply I got said if the groups were full, I'd be an extra car they have to fill in, and they might need an extra instuctor.

diddiyo

mhhh.... as of right now i'm counting:

10 cars in the green group (instructed beginners)
13 cars in the yellow group (instructed novice)

and exactly another 23 in the red/black group which i think all the instructors are running in. so that would make sens that they won't allow new signups right now if all of them are instructing.

i guess i'll be the only vette then
but keep checking, maybe another spot will open up
