Panoz Track Day at RoadAtlanta

I know that Roebling is not over, it starts tomorrow, but I am already trying to figure out how to get on the track again. :D

And here is my ticket. I am hoping to sign up, is anyone else interested? It is December 10 or 11. Saturday is $275, Sunday is $375. I would most likely sign up for Saturday. Probably group C, since I have only been there once.

well, thanks to work, I will not even be able to go to RA in December. Oh well, now I must find another way to get on the track.

EDIT:
There is a seattime event on February 25 at Roebling. Is that a solo thing, where you go drive, or are there any instructors involved? Anyone know?

Seat time is a solo thing where you just get track time. Passing is on point bys.

No luck there OD. I already asked and they said that it was a one time deal for us.
Come on anyway, you know it'll be fun and definately not too hot!

I'd love to do Little T for 100 bucks. I'm, and I could get a couple friends from here to go too.

depending on when you want to schedule that, I would be in for that. I am dying to get back on the track, and will not be able to do the Panoz event anymore.

no, work got in the way. And I am not sure that I will be able to make it after surgery, this is going to be a slow recovery.

Saturday only for me. I am bringing Lee Ann with me. She is by far the best car chick ever not to mention, very easy on the eyes. Let's go for a ride!! Maybe the header will be on too>

The pain a trackaddict feels when he cannot score any track and has to endure watching other people get high.

Marietta8 had a good track day today. It was great to watch him run anf boy was he flying. Val timed him on a wristwatch turn a 1:48. Quite impressive with street tires! I am sure SilverEight will be posting photos soon as he certainly won't be wasting time working on the March NASA video.

Good job Charlie and thanks for the ride!

Thanks for the ride Charlie.
