I don't care who is hosting, any day at the Glen is a good day.

I've been to chin and track masters, both have great track time!

Thanks!

CHIN !!!

Talk with Mark... instructors are available.

Space is limited.. so no moving chicanes.

Offers the most TRACK TIME !!!

Other clubs are good... I've instructed for a lot of them...

but CHIN offers the most time on track and has good instructors.

For the past several years, CVR has had Peter Argetsinger as our Pro coach and in addition, he always either gives a track talk to the entire group or a classroom. CVR also has track walks at the end of the first day which gives you a much different perspective of the track, considerably different than looking out your windshield.

That is an understatement! Walking (well, actually driving and making several stops to look) the track at Watkins is an amazing experience in itself, and Rick has become quite well versed in it's history and nuances and does a very good presentation.. don't miss it.

Bob Scotto, I have a couple of Chilean Cabs for you to try.

Van, please let me know if you need more instructors.

Chin is #1 for students, solo, and instructors alike. Lots of track time for everyone, well run, and first/last sessions of the day which are open to everyone are a unique feature.

Thanks guys!

When you are not at the Niagara events Hook up with Chin and Trackmasters. You will find many of the same high quality instructors at Chin and Trackmasters. As well as the bulk of Niagara's DE instructor core run with Trackmasters.

COM is fun to test yourself and meet many people from outside the usual PCA crowd.

In the end find events that fit your schedule and go have fun.
