HPDE Oct. 17-19 @ Thunderbolt~!!

who's down?

it's with the Riesentoter PCA club. registration is open to anyone! let's go folks! cool weather...so no need to worry about extreme heat, brand new race track, and 3 crazy days!! lots of seat time.

register here: https://www.motorsportreg.com/index....8A2B31731380AD
Riesentoter PCA website: http://rtr-pca.org/vroom-vroom/index.html

i know some of you have nicely modified 8's. let's see how it does on the track where it's meant to be.

ok...fixed the link. registration opens on Monday (Sept. 8). $450 for 3 days. let me know if you sign up!

greg: you should definately track your car before you supercharge it. that way you have an idea of what the car feels like. you wanna take steps before you learn to sprint. you don't need a supercharger to have fun on the track!!

any pics of the track layout?

and $450 is kinda expensive, but you are getting 3 days worth of driving instead of 2...

yeah, $450 is a great price. i paid $430 for a 2 day event at VIR, so a 3 day event for $20 more is a great deal. im just kind of spent, start of the semester and all that.

yes, it is $20 to race at capitol. you can race as many times as you can get runs in.
