I would not bring my ///M up here because I cannot care for it properly and since I have a rental car. Plus, I have an issue where I cannot see the path through the cone field. The limitation is mine....

My first few sessions were like that but as I forced myself to look 3 turns ahead, the path became apparent. Plus having an instructor the first run or two helps.

Lame gtg's meeting in parking lots, no thanks. Most fun way to meet other owners and enthusiasts is on the track. I've met few guys from 1addicts and BFC but none from zpost... so who's down for the remaining events in our area? I'll be at the Glen and first day at Lightning with CCA.

NASA NE - Lime Rock 9/23-24
NASA NE - Watkins Glen 10/1-2

NJ CCA - NJMP Lightning 10/16-17

PCA Schattenbaum - NJMP Thunderbolt 10/20-21

There may be others I'm missing but this seems about it. I know Trackdaze is down at VIR but doubt anyone would do that drive from tri-state. And if you've never been on the track, I'd highly recommend the CCA Ligntning event since they'll have a special group just for first timers.
Ahem to that brother! I have been saying this for years but not alot of guys want to come out. There is a group of about 5 m coupes that I track with a couple times a year a njmp.

I will be at NJMP on October 8/9th with the PCA

Had fun today, saw maybe 5 other e86's including Sabbnick. The track got crowded at times but nothing feels better than getting th point by from a gt2 and 458!

You can't unless you get a rollbar so best bet is to then find a club that lets verts run in general, PCA and NASA tend to be the vert-friendly ones although there's always a chance that a region-specific rule may say otherwise (so check with your local clubs). CCA is a def no no, SCCA not sure.

NASA NE is cool with it, just gotta pass that test. Slouching helps, but I'm not sure if it'll be enough
