alright guys ill contact the track in the next week or so and get a idea on prices. mhoward1 if you could pm me any thing i need to know names or anything like that please feel free i will be in the area next week and have a better idea on when it could happen.

 

Will do,
I still have last years contract in my bag.

 

I'm in as long as it's under 200 any day untill March, and on the weekdays after the beggining of March. Have to work on the weekends starting in March. 2-3 of my buddies should be in as well.

 

I am IN!

 

Luie you can only come if I get to be teh frist passenger

 

And I the first driver

 

gotta get us a date lol. I'm in school till may so I may be SOL lest I make a long weekend out of it.

 

Family emergency/surgeries always works as an excuse! I had 3 spring breaks last year without my grades dropping one bit.

 

be nice to have a saturday event. drive down friday after work and drive back sunday. i think its about 5-6 hours from here. probably just camp out if they allow that to save some money (weather permitting).

 

They do allow camping.

So where was all this interest last year?

 

i wasn't mobile last year...sorry

 

Roebling Road is a GREAT track....I luv to drive there, long fast corners and smooth pavement (now)...It is "Big Track" compared to LTGP. A couple of the turns (3 & 9) are almost 100 MPH, with 130-140 MPH on the main straight....WOW it is a fun track for both less and more experienced drives. And much easier on the braking system than LTGP!

Hey Guys, I suggest that you hook-up with "Seat-time" or "Chin MotorSports". Seat-time would be the best for this outing as their rules are pretty lax, but they usually fun on Fridays....check them out.

Chin is a great organization, but are very strict on rules, like who is Solo qualified and who is not. So they will likely make newbies get and Instructor. Which by the way is not a Bad thing. A good instructor can really help a new driver

Or, run with the Porsche Club....I will be running with them Jan 18-20, but I think they are full now.

Yes, they allow camping....but when they lock the gate at night..you are locked inside the track. Just be prepared!

 

They are all full, I've tried sending them a check three weeks ago, saying they could put me into any group available, and it got returned

 

Rockingham locks us in as well...as long as the cooler is full and has ice, i'm good

 

Jarred,
Have you PM's Asphalt Ventures (Stack) to maybe arrange this? They do these sorts of thinsg for clubs and the events still run under the club or individuals banner. Like a wedding planner

 

lol

I hope Stacy reads this...HAHA

 

Hey... I'm up for a challenge

Camping at Roebling is allowed... BUT... and I do mean BUT. If you break the rules, or even appear like you might be breaking the rules, you will know about it, and you will not want to go back. The track managers live on site, so you're basically camping in their front yard.

Don't even THINK about getting in the gate earlier than they want to let you in, or later then they close it (unless you leave your car outside the gate and walk through the foot entrance)

A few clubs run events there and have not been very courteous or understanding of Roebling's rules and have essentially ruined it for all of us organizers. Driver's may not really notice (unless you want gas or something, or in the unfortunate event you get caught doing something on the grounds you're not supposed to.) I think the best word to use to describe Roebling's management: persnickety.

Have fun if you can get a date... like was mentioned earlier... if you go off track coming out of turn 9 (the last turn leading onto the main straight), no matter how innocuous the off might seem, DO NOT try to bring it back on track. There's a very unforgiving concrete wall along the pit lane that is a magnet for people who think they can save it there.

For those of you wanting an early track event, and you've got some experience under your belt, I'm running a lapping day on Monday Feb 11th at VIR North Course and I have lots of room left in that event. The TZC/THSCC is on Full Course that same weekend, but the event is close to selling out at the moment.

 

So from scanning the posts so far, it looks like most people are interested in February? Jarred will be MIA for a few hours but when he gets in he could attach a public poll to see what month/weekday would be easiest for everyone. Roebling's (tentative) schedule is here: http://www.roeblingroad.com/schedule.html. Looks like the weekends are all booked up, but maybe a Friday or Monday would be preferable so some people can take a mini-vacation over the weekend in Savannah? For those wanting to camp, you'd probably do better to go find a really pretty campsite than worry about the track owners' rules. BTW, Jarred's moving out there this weekend so I think he's going to check in w/ the track and then set this thing in motion officially.

So far the people interested are:

1. aarantes
2. dkmesa350z
3. Vizage
4. craigo'sznprgrs
5. mhoward1
6. Stack
7. Billhyco
8. DuMA
9. robbycolli
10. ke0ki2k
11. Zelig2
12. tchiuda
13. eagletanggreen
14. laze1 (?)
15. Jarred@Z1

Not bad!

(I don't count. I'll be a passenger.)

 

well if camping appears not to be the best route, i don't mind splitting a room with someone on here. perferably female, age 20-35, brunette, avg build....but i suppose anyone else will work too
