I attended back in 2002. They run a well organized DE and time trial program. What about Monticello full course on 7/31 with SCDA?

NHMS is 45 minutes away from my house and I only really care about checking out my new suspension.....

Although I have run SCDA events in the past and liked them........

"Corvettes of Massachusetts."
I ran with them a number of times in the early 1980s. They were my first exposure to DE events. They were a really nice group of people back then. They usually add a time trial to one of their afternoons.
I rejoined them last year but have yet to do an event with them. Like you Paolo, NHMS is fairly close to me so I thought it would be a good way to get more track days.

Gary, unfortunately I won't make the sound limits with the current muffler, plus I have patients scheduled...

I will have Dan or Bela explain to me how to change the settings when I pick up the car.......

Good luck at LRP hopefully you and Sean will finally get your "papers".......

Bring Dan your muffler, have him convert both that and the straight pipes to quik-connect (like mine and Sean's), and tell your patients to buy some fix-e-dent.

Fixodent..........dude you are killing me.......

Although it is probably a good idea to have the quik-connect installed......

For a DE....on a Sat...... 45 min. from home......you can't beat Com sports in NHMS.......

Oh, yes......furthermore, for first time partecipants with their club there is $100 discount.....

FWIW,
Com is a great club and one of the best gateway clubs to competitive racing. They offer a unique event with a lot of different types of cars. The time trial portion of the event is only available to drivers who the clubs chief instructor signs off. It is a time trial much like closed course qualifying seen in other race sanctioning bodies. It has been a few years since I ran with them but what I remember is lots of track time. Good bunch.

Just for the record guys, "Corvettes of Massachusetts" is a name that goes way back. Even when I ran with them in the 1980s, there were probably only about 2-3% vettes! Not that there's anything wrong with that.
