Sorry AP, I have not run there yet. Maybe someone else can answer that one??

Hopefully you can join us when we go, there is usually a large group from the NE section that goes together to these events. It's nice to have some support if you have a problem or bounce track idea's off each other. We all work together to form the super Vette team.

Nice Alex!
By the end of next year, you and Rodger will have enough seat time to start putting distance between some of the six speed guys. That'll shut em up.

Nothing would ever shut them up, even if I were to drive for the C6-R team using the first ever automatic vette at Lemans.

I forgot about that, now that you mention it I think he was putting the lumps to some of the guys at W.G. too.


Alex, if they didn't like you they wouldn't make fun of you.......ok, maybe they would.

Hi Guys
There was a thread about the vette being a drag strip car or a, i think a motorcross. People gave there opinion. I would like to try both. So, if the days that you guys/gals(DEB) decide to go,keep me posted. This is where I'd like to see how I drive without breaking anything. I'll need a the advice I can get

With a full independent suspension, low center of gravity, almost perfect weight distribution and a huge engine, the vette is purpose built for a road course. Its in its natural environment in one. If you decide to come with us this spring/summer, I guarantee, you'll have a blast!!! You'll look at your vette in a whole new light.

VIR is end of February with NASA.

WGI is end April with SCDA (assuming they do it again).

Limerock is throughout the year, but April is probably the first one - PDA.

I will have a full lis together once SCDA posts their 07 schedule.
