Default South Louisiana National Nissan Meet/Road Race/Drags

Has anyone heard about this event? Saw it on a different forum.

South Louisiana National Nissan Meet/Road Race/Drags.. (Sept. 5th-7th)

My wife and I will be hosting a national "General Nissan" (B15, B15 Spec V, B13/B14, S13/S14, Z/G chassis, etc..) Road Race/BBQ and car show event late this summer, to give back to you guys that have made our company (Forced Induction Racing) what it is today.. We will be renting out the road course and facilities at (http://www.noproblemraceway.com), which is located just outside of New Orleans and Baton Rouge, LA. Below, you will find a host of information/dates.. We'd love to see you guys.. So come out, and let's make this an event to remember! The track will also host a Midnight Madness event Saturday evening.. so, for all you drag guys.. this works out perfectly..

What/When?
UPDATE- DATES ARE CONFIRMED!!
September 5th- Arrival, hangout, etc
September 6th- Road Racing, BBQ/Crawfish boil (9am - 4pm) Midnight Madness drag racing (9pm-till)
September 7th- Car show, hangout, raffle and goodbyes

We are trying to set up a raffle at this time.. Proceeds will go to a charitable cause (undetermined as of now)

Where?
Baton Rouge/Belle Rose, Louisiana (http://www.noproblemraceway.com/roadcourse.htm)



Where to stay?
Baton Rouge, LA, is a huge college town, with tons of bars, hangouts, clubs, and unique dining.. It is located roughly 30-40 minutes from the track..

New Orleans, LA speaks for itself... lots to do.. Bourbon St., clubs, night life.. It is located roughly an hour from the track..
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&vie … Businesses

Cost?
While we don't expect you guys to pay for everything... There will be an admission fee for spectators and drivers.. This basically pays the EMS and fire crew, plus officials who run the event. We will have everything else covered.. Fees are as follows..

Spectator- $10.00 per person (You will have access to food/drinks)
Racer/Spectator- 85.00 per person (You will have access to food/drinks, and all day track use)

We will be setting up a page for you guys to pay, using paypal, and sign up officially.. Stay tuned for updates..

You may BYOL, HOWEVER, it must be in CAN FORM ONLY.. NO BOTTLES.. Also, you will be carded at the gate by one of our officials.. Depending on your age, you will recieve a certain color wrist band. If you are planning on racing.. do NOT plan on drinking.. If you are caught drinking underage, or drinking/driving, you will be asked to leave. We want to keep this fun.. but, SAFETY is our top priority

Also, we will have a large supply of drinks, and the bar/concession stand will be open.. but, we would ask that you bring a small ice chest with water/drinks.. just in case we do run out late in the day. It is very warm during the day, and we don't want you guys dropping like flies..


If you do plan to attend.. PLEASE post your full name, vehicle year/make/model, and whether you plan to spectate, or spectate/race

If you are interested in instructing a beginner or advanced group, please contact me through PM..
If you wish to help with getting things together on the net, or at the event, please contact me through PM..


Let's make this huge.. See you guys this summer!

Sorry guys, I was supposed to post about this sooner. Thanks Robert for posting it up.

Sometime soon there should be a link to pre-register to secure road course slots.

No problem. I included in the first post a link to the Spec-V site. Think all we're missing is a registration site and where to make payment. Looking forward to attending. Have to take the wife on a cruise to the Bahamas to get this 3-day kitchen pass.

I am planning on it. I doubt I will get in on the first batch but more than likely by the end of next year yes. You ever get a new clutch yet?

I actually just got off the phone with Travis, the guy hosting the meet. They are still waiting for the web designer to finish the registration page.
