Default TWS ROADSHOW open track day 6 February before the MVP COTA

Keeping the spirit alive we will be again renting TWS Thursday 6 February so that drivers coming in for the MVP event at COTA can drive this Track as well. Hope this makes the long haul even better for the guys from distant lands like Oklahoma, Florida, Georgia, Wisconsin, and even further.

2 tracks, 4 days, makes the trip even sweeter. Plenty of track time to test and tune the cars before COTA, and for our friends from the Northland another day to get back in the drivers seat with no snow.

Our format will be the same as last year Open Track with Highly Experienced Drivers Only, field is limited to 34 total at 200.00 each.

Registration will be on Club Registration as soon as possible. So tell your friends the 2014 TWS ROADSHOW will be open soon to experienced Local as well as MVP Drivers.

Subscribe and we will let you know when the list opens

Thanks to you and VR for spearheading this again. I am in

Those of you you didn't make last years event missed a lot of awesome track time. Now I just need to grow a bigger set on man bearings for turn 1 braking.

You'll have to rely on 4forme to keep you warm at night. You high-rollers have fun.

Our Event at TWS Pre COTA is open on Clubregistration.net under American Porsche at TWS. Open to all advanced drivers do not have to be going to COTA

A buddy of mine in a fully built E46 M3 doesn't really brake until he is at the box. That is man bearings. Of course he manages a 1:52 in that car, too.

TWS turn 1 is the perfect place to practice ball enlargement. Its much longer than people think push it.

Interesting. IMO the box is way too late. I manage 1:53.2's in my 240hp E36 M3 with no aero and a stock motor.

Go figure...

Izzone,

Well done, you were getting around there pretty well.

Here is Andy Lally at TWS in November.
