Clois;

I'll try and send you the site to go to for the info and registration,but here is how they did it last time and it is supposed to be the same this time......

Five 15 minute sessions a day,two in the morning and three in the afternoon.....

Four classes of cars;
1-Novice----NO passing allowed at all---follow the leader only,mainly for beginners,mostly street legal,street cars,but anything is allowed car wise....
2-Intermediate----Passing allowed only on the front straight-a-way,expirience needed for this class.....
3 & 4---Competition classes---full competition cars---roll bars-fire suppresant systems,competition licemse required such as CVAR or SCCA.....

There is a posted speed limit in all classes,but it is very "loosely" enforced,they tell you that at the drivers meetings,they let you run all out as long as you at least act like you know what you are doing,if you drive erractic or do not let faster cars pass or try to block,then they will black flag you and bring you in for a little "talk",secound black flag and you are finished for the weekend,as they said,"now you get to go home early".... Have not seen anyone black flagged except for mechanical problems (car smoking badly or something hanging or dragging on a car)....

First time out I had to run Novice which was good for me cause it was my first time ever on a road course,luckily for me,I was also the fastest car in Novice class.....

Secound day I asked to move up to Intermediate and the track personal agreed that they thought I did well enough and they let me move up,humbling expirience for me,but a good one....

Now that I have some expirience I will run Intermidiate as my car will not qualify for Competition classes....

If you have any track expirience you can run Intermidiate and it is a FAST class,Cobra's,supercharged Mustang Cobras,Mustang GT's and the like....

15 minute session equals about ten to twelve laps on the course....Use all the NASCAR front straight-a-way,so can get up some pretty good speeds,some cars were hitting around 130 or more,back straight is a lot shorter....about 10 turns total....

I hit 120 on the front and around 100 on the back....Plenty fast enough for me......

I like the track as well as the facilitys,all first class,One suggestion,if you go get a garage stall,parking lot gets pretty hot in the sun all day,I will NOT go without a garage stall and have already booked mine...

People are real nice and if you ask ahead and give them the names they will put you and your buddies stalls adjoining,big help sharing tools and space....

They do not brake up cars in classes by car type,whatever class your sign up for and your car qualifies for is what you run in regardless of car type,they will have the exibition race for Cobras and Vintage Mustangs saturday around noon,but that is invitation only.....

This event is also restricted to Mustangs,Cobras (real or replica),any Ford,and Ford powered cars only (Sunbeam Tigers,Panteras,etc,etc)....

Got all the track time I wanted,in fact both days I did not run the last afternoon session,too tired,you have about an hour between sessions,time to work on your car and let it cool down....

Security is excellent.....
