From KHrant at aol.com Sun Jan 14 21:01:21 2007 From: KHrant at aol.com (KHrant@aol.com) Date: Fri May 11 11:18:48 2007 Subject: [NSX-CA Central] NSX-CA Track Events in NorCal Message-ID: Folks, as we start planning the year ahead for track days, below are the track dates by TrackMasters Racing, NCRC, and T.E.A.M. Racing that promote HPDE/S (high performance driving event/school). The listed dates are pretty much confirmed, a few more might be added. As you will see, we are truly lucky to have so many options at four tracks in NorCal (Laguna, Infineon, THill and Reno/Fernley) and Buttonwillow - you know where! Please take a look and let us know which dates would be most attractive to you all to make it a featured NSX-CA event, and hopefully we can get NSXCA Northwest Region to support it as well with its regular subsidy to the NSXCA members - a template to how the two can work together by complimenting one another. I have highlighted in red the dates that I think would work for all based on previous history/attendance. Please note that Infineon and Laguna Seca events fill quickly so an early commitment is a must. And for novices, not to worry, all these programs offer excellent instructors, and quite a few are NSX owners as well. I am deliberately avoiding Thunderhill in summer months as it can get really warm and that can be too hard on some NSXs. I must also note that all three programs have supported the NSXCA-Sacramento Chapter in the past by helping us with track events. If I may add "my" $0.02 on these programs: _NCRC_ (http://www.ncracing.org/events.html) : better suited to those with more skill, horsepower, and seeking an opportunity to transition perhaps to more racing with their ARC program _TrackMasters Racing:_ (http://www.trackmasters-racing.com/index.html) Ideal for those interested in pure HPDE/S with room to mix it in the advanced groups where you do need horsepower _T.E.A.M. Racing_ (http://home.onemain.com/~bonster/schedule.html) : Ideal for beginners and intermediate drivers who won't be intimidated with horsepower cars per se but also will appreciate what momentum is all about and occasionally pass cars to help boost the ego ;-) In recent years, TrackMasters Racing has picked up a solid following from our NSX community, thanks to Doug Gale's (the owner) overtures to our enthusiasts. Doug and I are exploring further how best we can enhance his program to make it even more attractive to you all.

Doug Gale is planning to offer package deals up front where you can sign up for 4, 6, or .... or the entire TrackMasters events with a passport pass ........ he will have the pricing soon. And this year, he plans to open registration to all track events at the same time - i.e., from beginning of the year. This means: (a) If you want to attend a particular track and/or event date, you need to register the moment he opens the registration for all events and not wait till the last 30 days (b) The package deals will save you money (c) If we want an NSX group event, we need to decide early with some financial commitment to secure track/date/spots So if you have any interests, start posting now ......

Pacific Standard Time From: webmaster@norcal-saac.org Sent from the Internet (Details) February 5-6, 2007 (yes ... that's Monday & Tuesday) Nor Cal SAAC and Green Flag Driving Association jointly present the Winter Surprise 2007 Open Track event at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. We are fortunate to have this opportunity for a 2-day event. Nor Cal SAAC and Green Flag have pooled their resources to ensure sufficient entries to cover the high cost of renting this world-famous facility. Due to more track renovations, this may be our only chance in 2007.
