This groups Advanced Time Attack...there is at least one other POC Time Attack Group, BUT....I have not seen the run schedules.
Are PCA and POC running together, or separate schedules? And is POC running two time attack groups. Really hope we can do open passing in the advanced group!

Jay just to clarify, POC and PCA will race together in 2 race groups as we did back in 2012. Same thing for the 2 Time Trial groups.....

Reminder to anyone running for POC points/classes or for the Yokohama tire contingency that you must check off the POC box in registration to qualify. You can go back in and do so anytime before the event.....

Are you sure?
There are over 100 signed up for the PCA TT
I looked at last years schedule and there were 3 TT groups and 2 CR groups

Default POC & PCA run together

I believe that the club racers (POC & PCA) will all run in 2 run groups and there will be likely 3 TT run groups with POC and PCA intermixed.

I think it's that they suck too much gas, and have too small of a gas tank to last 55 minutes on the gas!!
I'm hoping that I no longer have that problem. I used to only be able to go 45-50 minutes, but the car is at the shop now getting an extra 5 gallon cell added so I can run PCA 60 minute enduros. I'm hoping to get back to Road America again this year and want to be sure I can run the enduro if it only 60 (I like the 90 version better).

I'm going to have to chase JR or some other POC guy to relearn the track. I've only been there once, in 2011. Looking forward to the return.

I'm pretty sure they had one there last year, but I may be confusing my events at Cal Speedway...

This is always a fun event, just bummed that Pirelli Drivers Cup is running at Thermal that same weekend. Trying to find a way to split the team accordingly...
