Default CVR at the Glen June 25-26

I was wondering if anyone knows the registration status for the CVR event at the Glen on June 25-26. Is this event already full? I've signed up but my status shows up as pending and that I cannot pay till accepted. I couldn't find an e-mail for the CVR registrar. Any insight would be appreciated.

I have been accepted already. If you are in a group in which you need an instructor, they are probably waiting to see how many instructors sign up first in order to know how many students they can handle.

I sent Kevin an e-mail. I'll wait to hear what he says. It might be because either though I'm signed off with NCR, this will be my first event with CVR and it appears I have not yet been assigned a run group.

Anyone know whats happening with the LCMT registration? The website say it was to open on 3/20/07.

The Glen was probably my 7th or 8th course and is by far my favorite. There's something about when you have the mojo going and are able to apex turn 1 putting the hammer down and holding flat all the way to the bus stop. There are 2 spots where you hold your breath when the suspension shifts, but once you get past the concrete / fence, it's home free down the back straight.

Here are a few shots from last year to get your juices flowing...

Actually, the rear end is so well planted because I had 10 bags of bark mulch in the trunk that I picked up on the way to the track ($0.99 each - I couldn't resist). I was trying to get the feel for what rear weight bias was going to feel like in my 997S.

"I was trying to get the feel for what rear weight bias was going to feel like in my 997S."

How did it work out?
