So are you calling the winner?

If my post wasn't clear enough - Laguna Seca had challenging sound restrictions (at 92 db) for some of us. Daytona (to my knowledge) does not have any such restrictions and based upon past experience there we're not going to have any issues. This will be a great time for everybody who can attend and will be an absolute blast.

These USCA Events are second to none - more track, autocross, and speed stop runs than you want and some true marquee tracks. I'm stepping out on a limb and shipping the OLC to Daytona. We're going to run Daytona and Road America (two bucket list tracks in their own right) and will continue to St. Louis and Detroit for sure. If everything hangs together we might try Sebring and finish up at PIR as well but there are some possibilities in September than may change our decisions for the rest of the year.

The best thing about these events is that your experience level doesn't matter - there are plenty of folks around to help out with advice and Jet Hot is even providing instructors on the road course. They are a great time to get to know a lot of fun folks and given the amount of track time available you're sure to improve your skills over the weekend.

James and Sieg, couldn't agree more! TMS was my first USCA event and also the first time I have had my Camaro on a road course. It was AWESOME. The camaraderie is by FAR the best part of the event. I can't go to Daytona (pains me to have to type that!!!!) but we are signed up for Gateway and trying to convince the wife to attend Road America or another event later in the year.

If you are considering attending a USCA event, don't think twice. Just sign up and go do it. The track time is greater than anything short of having your own track in your backyard. The Jet Hot instructors are a must if you are a Novice or even in the Advanced class. And last but not least, seek out Albert Melchior and hang at his barbecue with the crew. The dude can flat out cook and you will have the time of your life sharing stories, talking cars and just LYAO!!!! Man I wanna go to Daytona! Send pics...and lots of them!

Hey guys! New to the forum but found this thread googling. You receive half off if you refer someone to a USCA event. I want to attend the Daytona event but was looking for someone to refer. I know someone that's attending but hasn't been put down as a referee. PM me if you're interested!

Thanks!

I'll be in this

Thanks!! I finally got it out to the track since the suspension upgrade to ridetech triple adjustables and it was incredible. Really want to make the USCA Daytona event.

So...I'll be boarding a plane bound for Florida tomorrow morning.

It's officially a Mother in law visit trip but I've carved out all day Saturday and Sunday to visit Daytona and spectate this event.

I can't wait to watch all the great cars getting beat on under the lights of Daytona!!!
