No, Tech inspection done there.. no need for shop to inspect etc etc etc.

If first time running with EMRA or you dont have a LIC from NASA or other club then you have to reg as a student. But it is all good.. first time sign up is 100.00 off!!! its a great deal... they also rent transponders for 35.00

go to www.emraracing.org click on Time Trial

Dan got an S2000? wicked, that should be harder to run away from lol

Latest forecast for my wheels is now end of May, I'm so pissed. Seems like I might miss Beaver Run as well.... and the only thing after that is Limerock in July, that's so far from now... FML

It was great..

Dan and I got trophies for 2nd and 3rd in our class!!!! wooooo-hooo !!!

Dan ran a 1:06.xxx I ran a 1:08.xxx ... a full 2.5 seconds better than last year !! Dan always beats me... He is a very smooth driver..

we had clear skies till the last session and then it rained.... we considered not going out... but it wasnt that bad, so we went.. we agreed to follow each other and watch out. we agreed if either of us felt uncomfortable, we would pit and the other would follow.. we ended up running the whole session and had a great time.

But let me tell you something about driving in the rain......You learn and have a whole new respect for speed and car control.. ( espically getting on the throttle coming out of the corners. My front straight speed was just about equal to my speed in the dry... maybe 5mph slower.. I hit about 110+++ in the rain before braking at the 600 foot mark... on a few laps in the rain i tried to brake a little deeper, just to see... Mental note... dont do this in the future.. ABS really does work LOL

Sway bar felt good... Brakes were still very good >>> still OEM pads BTW <<<( although on the BBK PBX box made the difference i was looking for exiting the corners, so overall it was a success..

I plan on putting on CoolCarbons soon.. theses pads have 3 auto-x's and 2 track days.. already down to 6mm ( 11-12mm when new)

Next event im doing is EMRAS NJMP event... this may be good for you.. its just west of atlantic city
a few pics...

BBK= BMW's Big Brake Kit ( upgrade for my 128 )
PBX = piggy back box for throttle remap and timing/fuel bump at higher RPMs.

That Black 430 ran in the am ( private group with a bunch of Porsches ) we did run with a cabrio 430 (red) he did ok, but actually held up dan in the passing zones... dan was faster in the turns..LOL He actually came over to us to apoligize for holding us up !!!! respect goes a long way on a race track...

NJMP is the next for me.. Beaver run, although beautiful, is just tooooo far...

there's another limerock in june, wouldn't you and Dan want to come to this one? I'd have my wheels by then

because if i don't attend this one then NJMP is not until July and i'm in serious need of an HPDE at this point.

I might make it to beaver run depending on when my wheels get here but it'll be a close, close call

The event in June is really a race and a compitition licence school .. not Time Trial...we dont qualify for those I may go to do my volunteer duty for the day, like we did at Summit point.. 3 volunteer events and you get 1 free time trial

Ill look around for other events... look into www.nasanortheast.com

I am planning on going with NASA on the 6/6 to LimeRock, and as many auto-x in between to satisfy the itch.
