Well, you handled the "event" well. Nice pull off! Well, at least you didn't have to sit there in the pouring rain, LOL>

Thanks. I left my helmet on for a few minutes while I was hanging out on the bridge so no one would see me screaming at myself.:026:

I think about seat time per dollar...

Attendance at a school count as a race toward regional/national license?

Most schools won't let you attend again if you already hold a current license.

I would highly doubt it.

You can do as many schools as you want. Just understand that Novice Permit holders will receive first priority if there is a waiting list - but we haven't had a full school since ???

Seat time per dollar? TEST DAY.

Yeah, thats what I figured. More track time than a typical track day run by SCDA or PDA or similar?

not at Lime Rock, LOL. As a one man band, I went to LRP for a test session last year. of course, they delayed the start until "after lunch", then even later as the "Club guys" (all 3 of them, 2 in Miatae) circulated. you can imagine the suspense as we all twidled our thumbs. At least the club guys could have run Bugattis or something fun!

Then it was rush rush rush, get your sessions in and get outa here, LOL. I really wish it was like the old days, when one guy could do the stuff he has to do between sessions, but the schedule made it tough. Thanks to Forrest and the guys at Flatout, they pitched in with tire temps!

Bottom line, be prepared to spend top dollar for not so much time, and have your ducks in a row if you expect to be able to actually use that time.

It depends. Not more 'time on track' than SCDA (which I highly recommend) but maybe more 'quality time'.

First you need to establish your goals. If you don't mind only being able to pass in certain areas and knowing you will get frustrated a fair bit, SCDA is for you. Lots of on track time.

If you want to simulate real passing situations, a test day is what you want. LRP only does half day test days that start at 1:00pm and go until 5pm.

IMHO, the best weekend for your money would be a test day at NHMS (8+ 20min sessions for $150), then the school, then the Regional.

Although I'm sure there will be an increase this year, the NHMS test days are the bext bang for the buck.

If my memory is right, $100 for a 1/2 day and $150 for the full. And some times the morning is an open session depending on how many cars are there.
