SCCA road race/ trackday at Road Atlanta

[matthewAPM]

Febuary 23-24 there will be a SCCA SARRC/Kumho tires 5hr. enduro/ PDX at Road Atlanta. The trackday will be Sunday morning (24th). The entry fee for the Performance Driving eXperience is $100 for people who are NOT working and $20 for works on the weekend (must be registered). If you dont have a SCCA lisence, please go to SCCA.com and sign up (only $75 ($45 under24yrs) and comes with mag subscription, and $10 off all autocrosses).

There are 3 different groups A, B, and C group. A being first timers and C being advanced. If your first time, a road race instructor (me if you ask) will be in the car for instructing to learn the track and basics on racing. Each driver will get 2 20-25 minute sessions on the track.

The only thing needed is a car that passes tech (same as a autox tech) and a DOT approved helmet. This is not a timed event, just for fun and learning.

PLEASE READ THE EVENT INFO AND RULES!

Registration for this event can be found at (Atl PDX on 24th) DLBracing
PM me to get temporary membership number (you will buy at track for $15)

here are a few pictures from the last event...







PM me if you have any questions. hope to see you out on the track!

do u have to be a SCCA registered member? if u are working that means wat cuz i dont want to pay a $100 if i dont have to.

[Oz10]

Damn that sounds like fun. I'd love to do it. Matt you wouldn't happen to have an extra set of race tires and wheels that would fit my subaru would you?

[IndianStig]

how can i pay the $20 fee matt?


if not, 100$...i have no licenses but my DMV one, will get me in right?

[Oz10]

I think the $20 is if you volunteer to work during the racing on Saturday. If you do that you can drive on Sunday for $20. Correct me if I am wrong Matt.

[00CelicaGT]

so is it $100 to race on both days?

[Oz10]

I'm not sure how this event is. But the race I went to with Matt had an SCCA race on Saturday (that you wouldn't drive in). I think Matt said its a 5hr endurance race. Then Sunday they had a PDX that is for all the people that just want to drive on the track for practice.

[00CelicaGT]

ok i think im starting to understand thanx reps+

[santacruz77]

ill be there prolly not on track tho unless i get my car to pass tech which i prolly wont.

[Elbow]

I'll be there on track. (registered)

[Roadster]

I'll probably have to get in on this one too. The Miata could use some more abuse.

[matthewAPM]

wow. im glad to hear such a response.

ok. it was my fault for not making this clear. the event is sunday morning ONLY. the other races are ones you can come and watch/work at.

you dont HAVE to be an SCCA member because you can get ur temporary lisence BUT, to work you must have it. (and to run any other event u do) ALSO, if u have ur SCCA lisence ($60 on SCCA.com) u get a free subscription to SportsCar mag, $10 off all SCCA autox's and can work a SCCA weekend and run the event for $20!

If you are working the SCCA weekend, you MUST work both days and register before hand. if you are going to work, READ THE SUPPS about works job. that is veryyyy important. and when you look at it, $100 isnt that bad, you could run with another organization and pay 3-4 times as much.

if u have any questions, please feel free to PM me.

[Elbow]

This is def. a LOT better ran then other organizations as well I personally think. Very organized, no confusion, great track time, no slow pace car laps or anything.

[matthewAPM]

[Elbow]

BTW it has to be quiet because this is ran at quiet time on Sunday.

[matthewAPM]

Remember guys, u must register on DLB before the event or NO RUNNING!

[Elbow]

Even though it's not required like Matt said, SCCA membership FTW....get a awesome magazine subscription, discounts on events, and more.

[santacruz77]

hmmm i have a 2.5 inch pipe all the way out with a cherry bomb.

im gonna put a monza tip on it would this be quite enough or not

[Elbow]

Not sure, throw another muffler on for the event lol

[matthewAPM]

VERY VERY true. and discounts other events, etc. It is worth the $60 dollars. and i havent read the rules for this season, but they might not give a SCCA membership out at the track...better to be safe then sorry

[santacruz77]

[atlantamx3]

I am going to try to work the weekend... but I will probably be short on $$ since autocross season is stating up.

Most of the MX-3 guys are going to shoot for later in the season to do some PDXs... when its warmed up a bit!

[OnURleft]
