PCA club race this weekend...

[jester911]

I have worked the past three years at the club race and it is always interesting.
I have opted to not work this year but I may go up at some point.
You can see everything from 914s to 997 Cups.


Sorry guys. I had it confused with the BMW club race. Can't change the header.

I thought BMW is this weekend? I guess my boss messed my schedule up? At Road Atlanta? lol Oh well not working anyway, I work PCA and BMWCCA.

[jester911]

Yes sorry it is at RA.

[simontibbett]

Are you SURE? I think you are wrong. I work there lol, it says this weekend PCA is at Barber and BMWCCA at RA this weekend.

[jester911]

Simon your right. I was reading on Rennlist and they were talking about the club race this weekend at Road Atlanta.
My bad

[simontibbett]

It's cool!

[jester911]

I edited the title.
They must have been talking about the BMW race.

I got an email to work again this year a couple weeks ago but I didn't pay attention to when it was.
Duh

I want to run a PCA event up there one of these days...because they allow 'verts. Be nice to beat up on some of those cars :D and watch some of the others pass me like i'm standing still.

[jester911]

I have done quite a few. It is a ton of fun.

IIRC isn't the average cost for non-members is ~$400?

[jester911]

That is about right. If you are doing more than one event in a year it will pay to just join since it is $50 more for non members and joining is only $42

[simontibbett]

I was going to do one last year but as usual my car took a crap. I like them because most of the guys drive the BALLS off the cars, not just put around.

[jester911]

Yes the real drivers in the PCA come to these events. You can get some very good instruction there is no extra cost.

I personally believe that Road Atlanta is not a good track for total novices to start however. It is much too unforgiving of a track where mistakes can mean balling up your car because of the concrete walls.

Mike I am not saying your a novice. I am only speaking for others that may want to try it.

IMHO Roebling in Savannah is the best track to cut your first teeth on a road course because it has very few real danger spots and tons of runoff in most areas.
