Barber does look fun and that would be a good weekend for me, if I don't do VIR the weekend before.

I can vouch for HoD PCA running a great event.

Peachtree BMW does not allow cabs of any type. Not even Z cars. I think it is an insurance thing.

They can be sticklers. I know of a 997 Cup Car driver w/comp license/s who could not test with them because he did not have a passenger seat for a check ride. That seems a little over the top. Surely his experience could be verified.

Early March can bring some of the coldest weather of the year. After mid-April we seldom see super cold days.

I don't know any people who haven't had complaints about the BMW club, even racers who've wanted to DE a few times. I've heard some decent reviews about the Audi club though.

Peachstate BMW's three day events @ Road Atlanta are well structured.

Friday is limited to advanced drivers and instructors and is an "Open Track Day".
Seth Thomas's group have attended using Friday as a "test & tune" day.

Saturday/Sunday is a typical D E Event with safety being the priority.

Chin also schedules Road Atlanta.

Their one day/Monday event has included teams such as Robinson Racing with their ALMS Ford GT 43.

These guys are "VERY FAST"... and they do "play well" with others.

Heart of Dixie (HoD) PCA does not do Barber. That's the Alabama Region PCA. HoD does Little Talledega in April.

We will only have 3 DE's this year as we lost April to Skip Barber
Man, April would have been perfect. Oct is being penciled in.
