Default Daytona track event Apr 14-15 on the Rolex24 roadcourse

If you want to run the Rolex 24 roadcourse at Daytona Int'l Speedway, here's a link to a thread in the AutoX/Roadracing section of the forum with info about this Apr 14-15 event:

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...l-14-15-a.html


In the past they have opened the event to novice drivers, but are having a meeting in about a week to determine if they will allow drivers with no track experience this year. I'll report when they let me know.

They do allow convertibles!!

C'ya at the track!!


Edited: Just received info from Flat Out that:

"We are going to allow students again this year. Non solo qualified drivers will need an instructor and be required to pay additional the instructor fee of $150."

So....novice drivers with no or little track experience will be allowed to run the event with an instructor assigned to coach them.

I Just edited the original post because I heard from Flat Out that:

"We are going to allow students again this year. Non solo qualified drivers will need an instructor and be required to pay additional the instructor fee of $150."



So...even if you are a novice track driver, you can run this event!!

Well...if you can't make the April event, maybe you can come run the Oct and/or Dec events!!

Here's a link to forum member Henry Gilbert's Performance Driving Group that is running an HPDE Sep 30-Oct 2. That's Fri, Sat, and Sun - and you can run 1, 2, or all 3 days. So...if you can't make a weekday, run Sat and/or Sun! On the PDG site click on the "Events" tab and you'll see several Daytonas down toward the bottom for the various days you want to run:

http://performancedrivinggroup.com/


Or, come to Daytona Dec 9-11 (same deal - Fri/Sat/Sun, and you can run any or all of the days). The event is co-sponsored by Hooked-On-Driving and an Audi club from Ohio. Here's a link to the Audi club's site - scroll down to the bottom to see info about the Daytona event. You'll see that you can register at http://motorsportreg.com or there's also a link to register through the club if you click on the "2016 Daytona Application Form" link:

Thanks for the links. I'm going to put them on my calendar and plan to attend. December looks like a better possibility as long as nothing comes up at work.

Only 6 weeks until the Apr 14-15 event. I think it's filling up, so register early if you can make the Apr 14-15 event!!
