I visited your awesome looking track during a Peach State region DE last summer while visiting my brother and his family who live in Cumming. I was so jealous that I didn't have my car with me. I want to trailer my car there for a DE this year at some point for a DE while visiting my brother again. Anybody have a link to the DE schedule and registration process for rookie to RA? I have quite a few DE's under my belt already at TWS, MSR Cresson and Eagle's Canyon here in Texas already.

Thanks,

If anyone knows someone who is backing out, I'd like to buy a spot. Waited too late to register.

Steve, here is the Peachstate website. The DE dates are listed on the home page.
http://www.peachstatepca.org/ As for registration it is pretty lame. You have to watch for when they open up registration and then you have to mail in your app. You don't know if you have gotten in until they notify you or return your app. It fills up very quickly and you can't mail it in early because they check the postmark date.

One of these days maybe we will get out of the stone age and use online registration.

I'll be there. I'm picking up my new dedicated track toy from John Hinds, a gentleman involved in running that DE event. I sold the GT3, and am now going to be a member of the low hp car contingent. I'll be sure to attach my "slow moving vehicle" sign on the back and get my left arm well limbered with some excercises to be ready for all the point bys.

This will be my second trip to RA. It's such a fun track.

Thanks, Jerrry! Looking at the schedule, I'll probably try to hit the August event and schedule in a visit with my brother at the same time. Hopefully we'll get to meet up and toss back a few cold ones.

Yeah, that's when I visited last summer. It was hot, not as bad as TWS in the middle of Summer.

In fact, we usually have one in late June and then not again until Early Sept (at least for the PCA events). Another reason August is a good opportunity for me to come out there.

Steve, make sure to let me know when your coming. Even if I don't happen to drive that weekend I will still drive up to Road Atlanta. It is only an hour or so away.
Looking forward to it.
