    I am just passing along the messege, I am sure there will be some sort of formal announcement coming. I can say that those who I have spoken to who are in the meetings on this say that the track is going to make a real effort to make this an "event". Not just a race.....

    what about the Summit Point 12 hour? That's usually around then, isn't it?

    Ehhhh.....not in '10. Our region's BoD decided to pull the plug on the event. That's pretty much all I can say about it for right now, but am sure that the NJMP event will be a more than suitable replacement.

    Spill the beans Gregg. What is it w/ the SCCA and 'protecting' people that make decisions that impact racers w/o getting input from those racers?

    I am sure that the Nelson event will benefit from it as well. I have heard rum ors that it might be a 24hr event this year rather than a 12hr

    That's all I can say because I'm still getting all of the details.

    Here's an idea for you Bill...try taking what people say at face value for once. And this may surprise you but we do actually consult racers. But since you're NOT a racer and just some internet curmudeon there's really no need to consult you, is there?.

    Guys please take this elsewhere. The point of this thread is not for an argument over what is already done. Lets try and focus on the 12 hour at NJMP.

    Yeah...it's purty...and clean. Like it's never been on a track before.

    Notice the car (or you) on any results sheets?

    BTW--I would recommend getting those dirtstockers off the car (and maybe putting some air in the left rear). If you ever see a rain race you might be in trouble.

    But back on topic--thanks to the JRB for picking up where our BoD dropped the ball in a down economy and decided that the short-term benefit was more important than the long-term cache it brings to the region. If I'm not driving, I'll be sure to work at the event for you, Terry.
