That one's too early for me. You going to WGI anytime soon? Let's go either one of 7/26-28 PCA RTR or 8/2-4 PCA NNJR.

8/2 cutting it close to wedding lol, but 7/26-28 doesn't sound bad. If anything I'd probably do 2 days only... will get back to you. If you do RTR, what run group are you going to run with? I've only done 1 weekend at the Glen so I'm thinking Blue (adv student - instructed).

Only if you take care of the entire deer population before then.

Seriously, there was another deer accident during a recent NASA race. I can't afford the risk of having to deal with deer while on track. It's a shame, because I really like Summit main.

Will have you run the e46 yet?

I know a few guys here are going to Del Val WG 7/10-11.

I know of 2 guys doing RTR WG in July. I would have done it, but had to replace a windshield this week. Got a hit by a rock going into town for lunch at my last NJMP event.

Might do 8/20 RTR Thunderbolt as I only have been on it twice.

This weekend will be my first!

Someone throw the rock at you or kicked up by a car in front?

I can't do the 8/20. Mondays or Tuesdays I can't take off...

What's your next DE schedule? (We need a list going. Maybe I'll start one)

How about Google Calendar? I made this public for everyone to view but email me at dubbedown@gmail.com if you want permissions to edit (so you can add yourself as an attendee). In the description field, that's where you'd enter if you are attending. Plus you can just search for an event (by initials or full name) just to see the which clubs are running there over next couple weeks/months.

Man, I'm deciding between this and PCA at t-bolt for adv/racers... more track time but the 3 days puts a big dent in the wallet. I may do Lightning as well.... I just prefer the more technical t-bolt too (so I have a chance with the n54 and s54 guys lol).

Del Val Lightning this year is going to be a bigger CCA event because they have the Enduro on Friday. Rob should be out there with Bimmerworks 335i.

If you guys watch Grand-Am Conitinental B+ Foundation drivers Hugh Plumb and Al Carter will be there Saturday. They are having an event for the kids parade laps and all since grand am isn't running njmp this year. As well as sprint racing between HPDE sessions like last year.

So is this bigger in a good way or bad way? I just want to get my money's worth in terms of driving time.

DCS_Off: I think it depends on what you want. You might qualify for the open track day on Friday. I like watching the races. I will see if I find the schedule. I think it's in Roundel or a Regional/Chapter Magazine.

Check out Page 26 NJMP Events

good stuff. I will join everyone at the Del Val weekend as well.

BTW I had one of the best weekends at Lightning this past one with TD. The car was great, and the instructor pushed me pretty hard to a point I had a couple off tracks. The Rival's are just alright, not bad but not great. And the 30-minute sessions are more than long-enough. I'll upload some videos soon, maybe comparing between this and the past car.

How were your times as compared to the 335i? Bone stock m3 with BFG Rivals (staggered)?) vs stage 1 335i with square Star Specs.

Btw, surprised to see the 9/20 WGI event is already waitlisted but I'm on the list as well.
