FBB has raced a prancing horse. Now in a 'Vette. He's qualified.

I love New Jersey. Placed the curbs on TBolt. Could piggyback if there's interest.

Dave,
Maybe go a little further south? VIR or CMP? Let me know, would love to come help out again if the schedule permits. CMP is a great track to work with. The management there is very accommodating.

Thanks, Peter. Yes, I have corresponded with FBB in the past, he is good to go. My comments were more general, for everyone else.

Would not mind teaming up with you somehow at NJ, which I also like (both tracks). I will advise regarding interest & economics.

Thanks, Cory, would love to have you! VIR may be a bit pricey, although in truth I don't know what one of the shorter configs costs. I may contact Kerrigan, with whom I spent a bunch of time last July, and ask. CMP, I agree, great coaching track, great folks. Thanks for the suggestion!

OK, I have an email in to NJMP inquiring about costs, etc, for you East Coasters.

For the Texas event, I am working the schedule to avoid conflicts with IMSA, PCA, etc etc.

Please keep the comments coming!

I am interested in Texas. But After April 16.

Depending on timing, I could help with Spring Mountain. I am a member. They also run a driving school so the calendar is already pretty full through April.
Some of the Spring Mountain run off is not as forgiving as in Texas. Nothing like the kink in Texas though at Spring Mountain. The track is pretty wide, facilities are better. The night life temptations greater.

Miller would be nice, but it is very expensive to rent the entire track.

I may be interested too depending on dates, would there be a provision to rent a race car to do the event?

i don't know. In the past, at MSR, some folks have rented some of Glen's cars, I will check with him to see if he is still renting them out.

As long as bidness does not interfere, looking forward to it. MSR for sure, and NJMP if I can figure out car transport. TX guys, can we go in on a car hauler to Jersey, make both events?
