Trakcar asked for dates in June (organizer's web addy is in my post on p. 1):

- 4 June, Mosport by Apex
- 6 June, Mos by 6th Gear
- 8, 9, 10 June, Mos by PCA UCR. 8th is charity day
- 15, 16, 17 June, Watkins Glen by PCA Zone 1. Friday the 15th is instructor day
- 21 June, Mos by Apex (Pfaff Audi day)
- 26, 27 June, Mos by Apex, private?
- 28 June, Mos by Engineered Automotive (EA)
- 4 July, Mos by 6th Gear
- 10 July, Mos by Apex
- 25 July, Mos by EA
- 27 July, Mos by Apex, private
- 1 Aug, Mos by 6th Gear
- 2 Aug, Mos by Apex
Thank you.

Tremblant is on top of the list.

Maybe I am missing some dates, but all I found was so far:

Tremblant is June 18+19
I can't find anything nearby right before or after.

So we need after calabogie June 20/21/22/23 and Mosport 22/23/24/25
or before: Mosport 13/14/15 calabogie 15/16/17

The next Tremblant event is
10-13 July, but Izzone is unavailable then.

After that tremblant July 23+24

Or we find Calabogie and Tremblant after the mosport event July 13-15.

I need to get with Randy to see what will work before we start calling.

Also high on the list to catch on the way up and on the way down:
David Murry 27+28 NJMP Thunderbolt.
Road America July 7-10 4 day PCA event.

OK.

I think we first need to find 7-10 days of as many days as we can between Tremblant, Calabogie and mosport. This will be a good week.

We can spend another week driving north and anotherweek driving south and hit as many new and or great tracks as possible.

No problem to leave truck trailer and cars somewhere for a week after driving up and before driving down.

First we must lock in Canada.

Tremblant date i know about
Rennsport PCA June 18 19
Viper club July 13
vag motorsport JULY 20
Rennsport pca july 23 24

IF you decide to go with after july 13-15, i would suggest VAG motorsport day july 20, lots of track time, only 2 run group(usualy)

and do 2 other day at Tremblant 23 24 with Rennsport. Or you can probably do Calabogie on monday with Entrack, also 2 rungroup. Me and Francois did 2h of track in the morning only on a monday there

So it would look like that
Friday Tremblant
Saturday Montreal downtown
Sunday transport to calabogie and aspirin or back to Tremblant
Monday Fresh for Calabogie or Tremblant

Not bad

I can verify with Bruce if entrack is are still running for 2012.

Or you follow NER and NNJR.

Francois wont like this one du to schedule conflict with the advance track day with Club race at Mosport.

NER PCA Calabogie july 6 7 8
NER PCA Tremblant July 10 11 12
NNJR Mosport 13 14 15

One nice thing about NER, they do a 1 hour session the last day for red and Black group.

I already answered, maybe it was in the other thread? Houston best bet is March 15-18 at TWS (a bit over an hour north of Houston) or north fo Ft Worth on March 10-11 at Eagles Canyon.

ABSOLUTELY worth it. My home track--probably the most under-rated road course in the US! And it really suits cars like yours.... Plus, that weekend there are 3 days of club races interspersed with the advanced DE (30 minute sessions). TONS of ytrack time with a very laid back crew.

March 15-18 at TWS
I was hoping to combine with NOLA, but they only have NASA events 3+4 and 31st+1st April.
Too far apart to leave truck and trailer there..
