Default @@@ Road Course Challenge Round 2 - NJ Motorsports Park @@@

Hey Guys and Gals, while I may not be well known here, I want to extend an invitation to an event I am putting together in New Jersey.

I want to stress that this is put together by car geeks for car geeks, we make no money on this, all support we get for this event goes to make the event cost less for those that want to partake in the fun.

Now on to the important bits

Well kiddies as Dan and I have posted in a few different areas we have started work on the 2nd event at New Jersey Motorsports Park on the Thunderbolt course.

Two companies have once again stepped up as Major Event Sponsors and have once again stepped up to the plate to support this event. (Can't mention them here as they are not supporting vendors here )

We had a great time last year, had a great group of people on track and everything I have heard back about the instructors has been outstanding.

So what are we going to change from last year ? Not a whole lot :mrgreen:

We will be running a Meet & Greet AT NJMP on Sunday March 28th 2010 there maybe a AutoX set up, we are still working on all the details on this. This will most likely be held over at the Lighting Course parking lot where we did the skid pad testing last year.

This will allow people who can't make the race to see this awesome facility, M&G and maybe play a little with their cars on the AutoX. Also we are hoping the the supporting vendors will set up booths, have product to show off and let you all fondle and maybe some ride a long's in preped cars.

After this we will wander over to the lodge for some general BS'ing and bench racing.

On Monday March 29th 2010 we will be out on the Thunderbolt Course !







Thunderbolt Raceway featuring over 2.25 miles of asphalt, 14 challenging turns, a one half mile straightway and approximately 40 acres of full service paddock space.

We will also be contracting Hook on Driving for instructors again this year. The Goal is to have close to 20 instructors, a class room segment and the Track Marshal.

We will be limiting it to about 60 cars again, 3 run groups about 5 session per group.

We will again be looking to supply a hot lunch and some breakfast goodies.

Door prized etc to be determined.

Group Buys are being working on already and I am chasing down leads on tires, wheels, brakes, and other assorted goodies.

I have this post across several different car forums again, so expect to see GTO's G8's New Camaros and a slew of the Japanese & Euro cars we had last time ( M3's, M5's 911 Turbos, GT3's , S2000, GR-R, Subies etc).

Cost : It always comes down to this Everything we get from sponsors goes to making this event less costly for YOU, Our Goal is to keep it UNDER $275, this event's cost is a bit higher than last years ( more track workers, more instructors & Class room segments ). So the more help we get the lower the price will be across the board. It also falls to how many people we get signed up, If we fill out the 60 cars we will be golden, if we only have 45 cars well.... there will be lots of space to work on your lines and not get run over LOL

We treat our sponsors good they treat us good !

Now for the Email list stuff :

If you want to be kept up to date on what is going on with this track day PLEASE PM me the following

Full Name :
Contact Phone Number :
Email Address :
Car you will be tracking :



This does not commit you to anything other than emails from ME and only ME, We do not sell or give this info to anyone else. If asked I may pass along an email from our sponsors but it will be sent by ME.

Pass the word to people that maybe interested in this event, invite them to the Sunday M&G if they can't manage the Monday event. Spectators are welcome.

Well We had the drawing for the Brake Pads and I would like to give a big Shout Out to the vendor that is supporting our event but I don't believe they are not a supporting vendor here so I can't Post the company info.

For giving us these Pad Set to give away to the people doing this event !

The winners were :

BklynMag - LXForums

Sota - SRTForums

CTRaider - ChallengerTalk

Tim Billow - Buddy to Rdnomorecobra

Are are getting things going and GB's should be starting soon. Look out for the emails!

Thanks again to XXX for stepping up and supporting us
