Default TZC at Roebling Road June 15-17




This event is a two day high performance driver's education event with an optional time trial for qualified drivers. Our events focus on learning proper high performance driving technique that will translate well into both street and track use. We focus our instruction on car control, on-track protocol, and advanced techniques that will be used with most clubs that run on-track driving events. We pride ourselves on the safety of our participants and our guests. We have developed an event that we feel offers the most for your track dollar while keeping the costs reasonable and the risks minimal. Any driver with a valid US-issued driver's license (under 18 must have parent or legal guardian present) may attend. Car must pass an annual safety inspection to show they are free of defects. Drivers must wear a helmet and proper clothing. Vehicle must be suitable for high-speed track use. You can expect three 25 to 30 minute driving sessions each day with classroom discussions held between sessions. Students will be grouped based on experience level into FOUR groups:

GREEN for novice and beginner students (generally 0-3 events)
YELLOW for novice/intermediate students (3-10 events)
BLUE for upper intermediate/advanced students (10-40 events)
RED for upper advanced/instructor overflow (30+ with verifiable solo experience)
Solo attendees please note: If you have not driven at one of our events in the last 12 months, you must submit contact information for the club with which you drove most recently. We reserve the right to place an instructor with you for a check-ride, with or without references

The time trial is a separate optional, competitive event open to drivers with the proper qualifications and cars built to SCCA Time Trial specifications.

You may also inquire about our Instructors clinic and Lapping day on Friday June 15th.

Signed up and ready to go!

Marty...Eric and I got the car fixed (or so it seems). Thanks again for the chance to drive your car at VIR-S. It was a blast.

What was the root cause of your issue? And no problem about the drive. It really does everyting I ask it to...except go fast down the straights.

The only obvious area of wetness was around the output shaft area, so my money is on the output shaft seal (obviously). I went ahead and did the input shaft seal and selector shaft seal while I was at it. Refreshed the shifter bushings and tranny mounts as well. Hopefully she is good to go for a while now.

Looks like we need quite a few beginners and intermediate drivers if you're out there and on the fence!

Right now the green group only has about 8 cars in it, the yellow group maybe 10 or 11.

So lots of open, traffic free driving if you want in!

Also... those of you upper intermediate, advanced drivers and instructors, Friday is open as a open lapping day.

Come on out guys/gals!!!

Roebling is a GREAT track to learn on, go fast on, and was recently repaved.

Also, TZC/THSCC is a great group to run with. They won't steer you wrong.

We had a pretty good turn out. The weather was nice, even if it was hot Sunday. The new Pavement is awesome. I think we will have pics ready soon.

I'll work on them tonight. Good turnout of 350Z's. All were very well driven. Some low res example pics from RR. I'll have them all posted by end of the week.

Event registration, grid control, instructors, and friendliness are all second to none at TZC events. Its a well oiled machine. Thanks for another great RRR event. See you guys next year.
