Does Anyone Here Road Race Or Open Track?
I spend most of my online time on a couple other forums (SVTP, corner-carvers, and SVTOA), but I joined here after a couple threads were posted up about the Catoctin Mountain Cruise that I put together every year.
I saw the Racer's Corner, and didn't see a sub-forum for road racing or open tracking. I was just wondering how many folks here have tried it, or thought about it. While Mustangs certainly do well at drag racing, they also are one of the cars of choice for road racing, also. My Cobra spends most of it's time at the road race track in open track events. I wish I could afford to go to more of them, they're like crack.

Do you do any HPDE events with Chin Motorsports, TrackDaze, NASA, SCMC, Mazda Drivers or THSCC at VIR? If so, I've probably seen you at an event. I run in the Red Advanced Solo group. My primary track car is a dark gray Corvette C5. I just purchased an '09 GT Coupe for my daily driver that I plan to take to VIR next year for a couple events. We're going to the NJ Motorsports circuit twice this year.
