Not to be a pain, but who's putting the event on and maybe someone will be able to give you an answer. NASA, BMWCCA, SCDA, CarGuys, TrackTime... you see my point?

No that's not it. that one is a week day event, I thought I heard talk of a weekend event in October while at the expo. I was hoping someone knew of the club running it.

If I knew who was hosting the event, I wouldn't be asking.

(I am going to the sept event, I just may not drive it)

Hey guys,

It is EMRA that is organising this event. October 22/23/24.

I have been going for 2 years now and I intend to be there this year too.

It is a racing weekend including Sprints on Friday and Saturday, Enduro (3hr) on saturday and a Time Trial on Sunday.

The Sunday TT is basically 3 x 20mins of lapping and then 1 x 2 laps for the competition. Best lap wins.

Its cheap and these guys are fun to race with. the weather is usually nice and the track...well....need I say more....

This is the event where I met El Pollo Diablo and the other Matt.

The Canadian Contingent will be back again for the third year running now. In fact, I know of one guy who's bringing 2 cars just for himself! See you all there, Matt, Matt (in no particular order), Jeff and everyone else.

Actually, I'm not sure how much that narrows things down! The good news is that I'm getting the cam seals replaced as we speak, which should take care of that whole oil thing.
