Unless you're strictly interested in time trials.
i want to get an event in with NASA asap so i can start working towards TT with them, but any track days in general will help obviously.

April 13th ill be at lime rock hopefully...have two people going on maternity leave at work in the next two weeks, so hopefully the new hire will be trained by june...i got pre approved for the may weekend...everything else is a crap shoot. lime rock/pocono i can do on a regular weekend if im off, but NJMP i really need 3-4 days off.

Kurt's helmet-mounted GoPro was found on the track at the initial point of impact...but he didn't have it running because the battery was dead after half a lap.

Blew my turbo at pocono three years ago and sent shrapnel into the ic. Duct taped the MAF to the throttle body bypassing EVERYTHING and managed to drive the car 1 1/2 hours home(got passed by a Prius). Easy fix!

Another reason to convert to SD. No MAF to mess with and car runs fine when icp pops off. Also no dumb issues with surging from bov.

I hear NJMP's Finish Line Pub is in a building that shares space with a huge gay sauna, not sure if that is true but it sounds like it could be.
