Oct 7&8 - Sebring w/ Chin Motorsports
Oct 21&22 - Rockingham w/ NASA

Nov 11 - Sebring w/ Chin Motorsports
Nov 18&19 - Barber Motorsports w/ PBOC

Dec 9&10 - VIR w/ Chin Motorsports


Hope to see some of you guys there.

No problem sharing a ride up to Rockingham.

One comment on the Chin events - Once you have been signed off to Solo at there event, you can have passangers in the car as long as they sign the waver and have a helmet. So, even if you don't drive - you can always get a ride with me.

I think this would be one of the best weekends of track we have ever had. I'm going to see if I can work it out but I really got to do something nice for the wife to pull this one off.

That will be one a month for you. So, are you taking December off or do you have one scheduled then too? That's a lot of track my friend.

That is a lot of track - thus the name applies - TrackAddict.

Come check out Sebring with me too! That should be a great track during the winter months!

I'll do @ Rockingham with NASA for sure and I am likely to go to Barber as well. It was a great day @ RA With Panoz today, SilverEight did well and Marrietta8 ripped a couple of 1:46-1:47's in the monster.

you guys are a bunch of track ho's. I really wish I had two things:

-the skills to become an instructor
-the stomach for ridign in the passenger seat.

Otherwise, I am gonna have a hard time affording this habit. I will be working more events next year than I drive. Trying to buy a house is expensive.

There are ways around it if you get creative. My easy way of dealing with the expense was to not replace my Saab with another 35-40K car and instead buy an $8,500 5 year old Mustang. Unlike y'alls new cars, it's a bit short on refinement but its' still plenty long on Fun / Speed, I have no car payment, and the Mustang stuff is cheap.

Also, with my partner Ivan, we are now running SuperMobile Performance on Ebay. We sell Performance parts for pretty much all brands of cars and that will also help support the habit

Where there is a will there is a way

Or another good way is to never get married or have kidds!

I signed-up for Solo, this is kinda pushing the envelope on my track budget but I couldn't resist going back to Barber and spend some quality track time with TA
