    to make this clear...

    The road racing for the SARRC is on saturday the 23rd. The PDX (trackday) is the sunday morning the 24th and that afternoon/night is the enduro.

    I am not an SCCA Member. So what is my total cost if I decide to come? Out the door? Who do I pay for each part?

    Who is handling the tech? Is this run in quiet time on Sunday?

    I am on like my 6th or 7th HPDE(Full weekend events) mostly with BMWCCA... Does that mean I would be in run group C? I am in B and last two weekends with BMWCCA I get signed off so where would I run?

    What are the passing rules? Over the roof to the inside of the track? You say "street exhaust"... Well I pass emissions but it won't pass noise if it is quiet time...

    To add to his above - what needs to be done to volunteer? (this would be for the next event). I'd love to volunteer and then run my car.

    Yah that too...

    This is not completely true. While it is only "100 dollars" it is the same cost of almost EVERY other HPDE event. Take BMWCCA at RA. It is 400 dollars for 8 20 minute sessions on track. On top of that you also get 8 20 minute class room sessions talking about car control, traction circle etc etc etc

    On top of that you get a catered meal AND a t-shirt!

    So it comes out to the same price... 100 is less than 400 but it is the same overall price.

    *edit*

    25 minute sessions on track and in class room. So BMWCCA is cheaper per minute of track time

    Halston as far as I know its just a Sunday morning thing. I'm working the event and I signed up just to took around on Sunday...2 sessions is just enough to get me wanting more so I will prob be on street tires on that note. Your car is to loud from what I remember at CCA so i'd pass unless you want to run the E30. If you do go through though i'm sure you'd be in the intermediate group like CCA

    Sex. Maybe I can keep the Exige as a goody bag. It'll be hard to part with it after romping the little celica heart out of it for a few hours.

    Haha neither would I. Hah you sure? E30= best car to learn how to go fast in. If you can run high 1:40's in a slightly modified E30 then your golden in just about anything.


    I made it through last time... Need a proper turn down and extra resonator but I am not worried.
    Halston send Thomas or Mike a message and tell them you want to be first in line for OBD2 stuff. I would of waited if I didn't have so many mods sitting around (including full obd1 stuff). Hah I plan to have my race car = loud then fun street car for sunday mornings to run = quiet time. My parents/siblings cars come in good use a session(S5, GTO etc.) and will greatly come in handy during quiet time if I ever get to loud.

    Yeah I have a set of K1's in the garage. The kirk bar - I'll be keeping that for 2008. Don't want to do a full cage yet.

    Me.

    And to clarify still some people seem not to understand. This weeknd is an actual road racing weekend, not just track day toy stuff, there will be real race cars, real racing, etc. The PDX is a driving session on Sunday morning during the quiet hour, between real racing, due to Hall county noise stuff, that's why your car has to be quiet. The SCCA does tech and all.
