IMO the number of classes does have an effect on entries. The more classes that get forced into club racing from top down, the more it decreases in-class completion by separating the current driver...

Jake Gulick and Dick Patullo, you guys are the greatest!!

I want to publicly thank :happy204: the two of you for getting my newly purchased quick change from Georgia to New Hampshire for me.

This type of seat mounting is designed to keep the driver in position with the cage. In a a side impact, if the door bars move the idea is the seat moves with them, keeping the cage from colapsing...

I need help transporting a Winters Mini Quickchange from Cumming, GA (about 35 miles from Road Atlanta) to Dunbarton, NH. It will need to be picked up at PFM Engineering in Cummings. I would be...

I know the focus in the thread has been on effective side protection, but one of the areas that most road race cage designs seem to not offer is proper forward area roll protection on cars with a...

Guys,
4130 (chrome moly or for the old timers,”Shelby Tubing”) is stronger than mild steel (1020) but if not properly welded and the welds “normalized” after welding it is significantly weaker than...

By looking at the Small Bore results from the National, lap records should fall significantly. GTL, E, F & H Prod all set new records, all now under 1:00.

The GTL new and old records were by the...

I started my Club Racing efforts in IT over 20 years ago. IT was the entry level to Club Racing. There were several inexperienced drivers in the field at that time, much like Spec Miata has today.

It is enlightening to see that the entire race surface is being reconstructed thru Big Bend and the Esses.

A properly constructed road surface is about 2 feet thick using 2-3 layers of...

Jake,
I'll give you some of my personal experiances on going from Regional to National racing and why I say those that focus on National Racing will more than likely run less events than they did...

My only comment is National racers on a whole enter less races than Regional racers do. The goal for a National racer is to qualify for the Runoffs. Divisional Championships exist but they have...

Here is a photo posted to the Prod Site, doesn't look like there is a bridge right now.

Tim,
I used to think the same thing, that "we" are all part of the same club and should work in concert with one another for the good of all, but things have recently happened that confirmed to me...

Tim,
As idealistic as your “pro race workers strike” sounds, what is to be gained for those striking? What hardships are the workers enduring that call for such actions? There are none so why would...

At NHIS all timing is done at the timing loop at Station 12 (Exit of NASCAR turn 4). The in race position of cars is taken from this loop as well. If the race is red and/or black flagged your...

"Holy smoke this guy Wilson Wright can drive."

Wilson started racing in Improved Touring in an ITA RX2 in the late 1980's early 90's. He is also a three (3) time National Champion in GT4.

To me it is obvious that the 2007 NARRC rules changes are a reaction to financial issues first and not for series enhancement. There are issues I have with the way the NARRC rules are established and...

Like I said, those smarter than me.

NER does a school and a one day LRP Regional. Maybe it is a format, although not popular one with drivers due to reduced track time, that the other LRP using...

Here let me throw this one out. I don’t know the dollar or schedule impact, but just another idea for discussion.

The attendance at the NHIS National is generally quite low. The Pocono National...

I like the new Brian Mushnick.

You strip away the official positions and titles and what do you get, true first amendment speech and some released rage!

Way to go Brian, PC is WAYYYY...

Brian,
Thanks for the cost breakdown of an event at LRP. This “real world” cost information is what a typical driver needs to understand. Track rental is the single biggest cost, but the other...

Jake,
The NH project you refer to is, I assume, Club Motorsports, Inc in Tamworth, NH. The developers have every State and Federal permit required to build the project. A portion of the Army Corps...

For those attending NHIS, Loudon, NH in 2007.

ALL people on the HOT TRACK are required to wear helmets. This means anywhere on pit lane including the pit stall. The pit stall area is new for...
