I am in.
Country Inn is fairly nice, cheap and more of a B+B type non-chain hotel.

BTW, does anyone know if the NNJR DE runs with or without the chicanes?

How about the actual club race?

Just trying to get a mental picture of the circuit........ thanks....

Last year and recently in May NNJR ran without the chicanes.

There's no db limit. Since you're running without the chicane, make sure you have enough wing when you cross the bump so the FAA guys in the airport tower adjacent to the track don't think that they need to give you clearance for take-off.
