SPBs at COTA
In the first 12 hours of registration for the March PCA races at COTA, 17 of the 63 entries (27%) are Spec Boxsters. Looks like a hell of a race weekend shaping up with Chris Drake, John Gladwill, Sean Gibbons, and Matt Travis all entered. COTA would not be a track you'd expect to attract Boxsters, but it's in the backyard of the "Texas Boys," so stock up on brake pads.
By comparison, at the Sebring 48 Hours in February, just 12 of the 227 entries are in SPB (5%).

Hope to run COTA one day.

We will have 2 SPB's at Sebring and COTA - not sure if they've entered yet.
If someone has a SPB I can borrow, we'll have one more car at each event.

6x second gear corners does suck but what makes the track special is the track width as there is no way you can "protect" and almost every corner is passable. So that's what makes the track special... oh yea.. and the crazy essess. Thomas Jones is also registered and you should check out his driving history. He's back from the dead and is one heck of a driver. Also - Adam Poland is supposed to be joining us - super fast Mazda driver from Pirelli World Challenge. It's going to be a BATTLE.
I have a thing called "work" in the way so I can't make it (UGH) - I know a few drivers who are concerned about some CDL scare right now with big - two car trailers and a lot of unclear information being shared.

And there will be at least one back marker -- as it will be my rookie SPB race.

If you have a two car trailer you likely need a class A (not CDL) which is for vehicles over 26,000lbs. It's a quick easy test at the DMV.
We had no problems for anyone from the SCCA race last weekend at Sebring. Lots of toterhomes, 2 cars trailers, etc.

35 (0f 120) when I counted last.
I think 120 is a full registration -- so looks like we'll fall one short of the Glen.
