2017 schedule

Post by Mario Fallas » Mon Jan 02, 2017 2:01 pm

17*s outside, too cold to ski :shock: too much salt to play with new toys :( what's left?
Daydreaming of race cars and being on track, so how about some candy and give us the 2017 schedule ?
I know I'm a PITA but I'm going into withdrawal here :lol:

Dream of stock Corvettes going through turn 5 at Watkins Glen. Dream of the new Caddy DPI's on the high banks of Daytona. Dream of the new F1 cars with huge tires and new found downforce. Dream of Lexus, Merc, and Acura's new IMSA GT cars at Lime Rock.

We are still finalizing our contracts with the tracks. Once complete the official schedule will be published.
Our hope is to announce the schedule before and/or at the annual banquet (end of this month).

Good news Paul. I hope that it is sooner because I am preparing to submit my requested vacation day schedule to my employer now.

Here's something to think about..Whiskey Hill clockwise. It's being seriously planned. Not that I am in any way bored with CCW... 8) I've driven it clockwise and really really liked it..and was kinda disappointed that the decision was to run it CCW for the first two years...but this changes everything.. :twisted:

My mind is already filled with lines to try... :D :sunny: :sunny:

Fear not, we have our chits in at Club Motorsports as well.

This track has been a long time coming, the owners are well aware of the years of broken promises from prior developers, so they are being very careful about commitment. Which we applaud.

We're working hard to make sure we have a solid schedule , hopefully including Tamworth, but with contingency if we aren't able to run there. Stay tuned, shan't be much longer...

The April event at Thompson will be a test day for licensed drivers and instructors. There will be no school or time trial.

It makes so much sense not to go back to Mosport. New England forever! (plus the Glen)

I hope that Mosport reappears in the 2018 schedule. It is one of my favorite tracks.
