Looking forward to this event. Hope to see some Forum members there (I am not particularly aggressive, however, and will run "Atomic" with the Novice group)

Anyway, just realized my old hand-me-down helmet is now disqualified and so ordered a cheap Snell M2010 on-line. It came!!! no need to worry about a loaner.

Question -- does anybody know if the SCCA gang running this event typically would have a few "loaner" helmets on hand (just in case shipping gets screwed up)?

Thanks...

Interested to hear about your experience. I'm planning to go to the august tnia at njmp. I've never been to that track and want to try it out. When I watch video it doesn't look all that great but tnia is a nice cheap way to try it out

Hi Dan --

I've done NJMP before. Nice setup for a novice. Pretty long straight for some speed, a few interesting segments (esses into long straight and the "horseshoe" or "lightbulb" are both challenging for me.) They don't put too many cars out there so I, and better drivers, are safe from drivers like me (some good drivers will wind up with the hackers when the good slots sell out.)

You are in a different place, at least judging from your picture. Perhaps you should start a thread specifically asking that question. There are some hard-core guys there (like the track prepared BRZ that got by me, and a similar Miata that gained in the curves, carried more speed into the straights, but just did not have the beans to force me to give him the wave-by...)

It is very cheap -- that alone ought to make it worthwhile...
