Default NASA Autobahn event: Free pro pics, + family day!

This year, our annual family day at Autobahn Country Club in Joliet is getting even better! Porsche is the featured marque, and 944 Spec drivers will have a dedicated pro photographer on Sunday. Last year, over 700 pics were taken - everything from fun in the pits to on track shots with Horatio from Time Stilling Photography hanging out in the back of a Suburban getting some action shots. Full resolution digital pics will be free, no watermarks! We will also be supporting a charity- the "Fit is Fast" campaign that targets preventing childhood obesity. We will have a Porsche Corral, and lots of kid friendly events - pedal car races, an inflatable air gym, crafts, etc., so bring out the whole family along. Mark the Calendar - July 17th-19th (most kid events on the 18th, pro pics on the 19th)

Racecar, or not, bring your Porsche out - you can do DE, lunch touring, or even just hang out. There is an enduro Friday afternoon as well. We will be working hard to get this event and the pics into Grassroots Motorsports, with NASA's support on this, so don't miss out. If you look at this month's picture in GRM's yearly calender, you'll see I've had some luck getting into GRM in the past!

Here are some of the pics from last year:

If you are a race driver new to NASA, your membership fees, and comp. license fees will be waived for this event - saves over $100.

If you're doing HPDE, your memebership fees will be paid/waived.

We have 9 drivers so far for 944 Spec - should be some great racing!

Weather looks great!
Friday will actually be cool - great for the enduro!

Got a few more give aways for the kids - kites, frisbys & posters. Got the pedal cars lubed and ready to race

Just reconfirmed with the photgrapher (www.timestilling.com) - he will be there Sunday. Also have a suprise twist on the racing Sunday - TBA.

Nick Miller from Bennington Motorsports will be there with a trailer full of spare parts, and free food!

Can't wait!

Don't forget the "hyperdrive" option to get on track at speed for $59 - can register for this at the event!
