Received a note today that they will rent the south track to clubs in 2009 when I asked if they will host SCCA or NASA type events.

Did you contact the NYR race chairman? Get him all the information.
This is a true country club and would be great if we can race here.
Thanks,

First, Monticello needs the track approved by SCCA, I don't believe that this has been done. Additionally, 2009 schedule is already set. So maybe in 2010?

I have been in contact with Monticello.
Any event would be during the week. Weekends are booked for MMC events.
This would be a one day event, we can race. A PDX / Club Trial or Time Trial would fit as well. This is using the 1.8 mile south course. The right side of the track map.

What do you think?
Yes, the circuit would have to be inspected and approved for SCCA use. We did that this year at NJMP.
Thanks,
Darrell Anthony
I understand the whole time off from work thing Andy, but would you be okay with a Friday qual then Sat race? Just curious because I had the same initial thought.
(If you feel like trying out the track, SCDA will be there on Friday, July 31st)

How about a testing day during the week? You might even be able to get tire support for that day during the week.....

Testing on a track that we don't race on is of somewhat limited value.
I'd do a midweek race for sure if that's the only way I could drive, say, Laguna Seca...but...it's a different story with a place that has no history. If it fit the schedule, sure.

I would be interested no matter what day it was. I live in the world of Retail so weekends are actually harder to take off than weekdays! Count me in! How about a PROIT race here

Jake, you could do it because it's a new track and would be fun. LOL
Andy, my basic point was why wouldn't we be willing to do a weekday only event if we'd be willing to do a Fri qual, Sat race event? I know, a single day event...then again, I'm not fond of the whole two day events and using one for qual.
Stephen, why don't you and Ray go with me to the SCDA event and we can have some fun.

No weekends, just during the week. I'm just testing the waters to see what if anything we may be able to do with this facility. We need to look at everything available.
But this is a one day event. So doing something like Pro-IT would be the way to go, a restricted regional. All clubs that I know of are doing a PDX.
Thanks,
Darrell Anthony
Now that's a good idea .....
