Yes, it is going to be April 15-16. I believe that is Easter weekend. I don't have a problem spending easter at the track....

I would point you to a flyer online but it is not posted yet. Send me an email and I can email you a flyer.

Saturday will be a high performance driving school instructed by Danny Kellermeyer in both a classroom environment and on track instruction. There will also be AM and PM test and tune sessions both days, and 4 high speed time trial events on Sunday. If you take the school you can't run the AM test and tune Saturday.

Hope this helps

Chris

I don't think so, there isn't any current plan to go to Autobahn.

I believe the series will include Gingerman, Nelson Ledges, Putnam Park, Waterford Hills, Nelson Ledges again, and Grattan.

Gordy,

I think the link you saw was from last year, it's been updated tonight since you saw it.




The flyer and registration form for the NCCC Gingerman events is here

OK so due to the holiday and low entries, the Sunday events have been postponed until October.

The Saturday school and practice sessions will run on April 15.

Is this for real? Where did you get the info as I have heard nothing and didn't see anything on the Regional site. Thanks
