Roadrace Your Cobra ?

[tommyboy]

Just thought I would pass this along.
The National Auto Sport Association (NASA) has opened up a Midwest region for road racing. NASA has many different classes for road racing.
One of the events they offer is called there High Performance Driving Event (HPDE) or more commonly referred to as "Open Track". NASA is holding events at Road America, Autobahn(Joliet), Blackhawk Farms, Putnam Park(Indiana) and a couple of other midwest locations.
I thought this could be a good way to get members of the WCCC together for some on track experiences. You have to become an NASA member ($35-40 a year) but this then allows you to participate in there HPDE events. Everyone would start out in HPDE group 1. Instructors show you the proper methods and theory of getting the car around the track. As you progress you may move up through HPDE 2, 3 and 4. An NASA event is held mostly on the weekends. You can sign up for 1, 2 or 3 days of track time. Two days of HPDE events gets you about 8, 20 minute or so sessions for about $295.00 . In my past experiences of open track this is plenty of time on the track.

First event is in April. Let me know what you think.
Thanks, Tom.
