Sounds good! But don't forget Howell is supposedly very close to announcing a date for Thunderhill for RTT-whatever for October 2012 I believe I read.

I am definitely in for the Buttonwillow track day next year that I recently missed.

Thanks for working the back channels, G.

Greg, NCRC is another one of many track day organizers and club racing sponsors, very much like the Shelby Club, except a littler more open minded. This is not a replacement or equivalent for a RTTx event.

NCRC does have a Time Trial deal.... G, you said you were gonna switch to that I believe instead of doing NASA again?

Thanks Dave, and I'm glad you mentioned it. What I would like to do is try and get Bill Howell and Dave together and maybe that will help Bill in getting the Thunderhill gig together.

NCRC does have a Time Trial group but you do not need to run the Time Trial group for lap times. You could get timed in any group except the school group.

And yes, I am switching over to NCRC from NASA due to track day costs. On top of that NCRC gives 5 sessions as opposed to 4 with NASA.

I know we are going to get a great turnout at Buttonwillow but how many are interested in a Thunderhill event?

Oh, and Greg, NCRC is probably alot like the Shelby club.

Thanks! I've only ever done one of these (the NCSC) so it's all new to me.

I sent an e-mail to Bill Howell regarding NCRC's willingness to cater to us as needed.

I'll keep y'all posted.

I don't see the need to drag Bill Howell into the deal. The american street car series is basically the same at NCRC. I like the road race only event.

Bills ASC series has a 200 tw requirement. I'm sure that has alot to do with insurance costs. Since we are doing this through NCRC and the track days are only $99 plus $10 for timing should we start a 100 tw series?

Call our group gig the "NCRC Muscle Car Challenge"?
