George, I wish that were so, that was not what I was told. It's their event, and I am just (was just) a Potomac region member. I just want to drive and have fun and share good times with others. Some folks, like the great people at RTR, get it, some don't No big deal, I have over 850 track miles on the car so far this year, with more events on the calendar. .......if I could just figure out how to drive it, and move on from the green group some day..........Great pic of your car in turn seven, maybe YOU could take me out on a ride and show me where the track goes!

I'd be happy to take you out and show you the DE line.

One good turn deserves another.

Don't give up .

Have run with both and all expect some sort of verification before placing in upper run groups. How many DEs have you attended? Who have you instructed with?

I always stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Charles Town.
Am I missing out on some excitement down there, or something (??) . . . .
Not very exciting, but nice, clean hotels with hot breakfast and close to many restaurants....and closer to the Cork Street Tavern.

This season, Martin has driven the the Black Group as well as instructed with RTR. He will more than hold his own in Potomac's black group.

Sorry, I don't know who your are. I don't know who you have been talking to; but, it is true that if we know nothing about you we follow established procedures. As the people who post here can verify, we have a procedure which is not that unusual. Email me and let me know who you are and who you run with, then we will be able to get it sorted out before the event. It is not too late. There is space in the White and Red run groups.

Email me at dechair@pcapotomac.org

Potomac is quite fair in their procedure. They popped me in White and several times I was asked if I wanted to be checked out and officially moved to black. All my buds were in White so I was happy where I was..

...unlike Streak who got out the 1st chance he could!

I've run in RTR black and instructed too.
BTW RTR asked for verification from Potomac before acceptance

Actually, I've had it replicated and packaged for sale with my DVD and picture book so the wannabes can wear it and feel like me! It's doing quite well. I'm HUGE in Japan
