Autocross:
Florida Corvette Racing Club - regularly for years - Brooksville Airport, FL
Finally getting some track time this year:
NASA HPDE @ Sebring 10/2
NASA HPDE @ Road Atlanta 12/3-4
Yeah, I'll be the new guy out there.
And I'm wearing the shirt, but not reppin' with the car yet. I've had too many other things that needed doing before slapping the turbo on the car.

Another plus for THSCC is that it's not uncommon to get Chuck Hawks as a classroom instructor. He also does training for F1 and NASCAR drivers and he is very good at explaining exactly why you're instructors are telling you to do certain things and drive certain ways. He's also a common instructor at Asphalt Ventures events.

PAHA & SCCA Hillclimbs - SSM class
-Weatherly & Polish Mountain last season, planning on attending all 8 races next season
SCCA Track Trials - SSM class
-BeaveRun & Summit Point last season, no idea about next season.
The car is competitive in our current SSM field (2 wins last season), but that's only because no one has bothered to show up in anything crazy (ZR1?)
Ohh, and I do some SCCA autox too, but that's just for testing/fun. I have a 370z that is much more competitive for the parking lot racing.

Non competitive track (circle track, small road course) and drift events. Grassroots challenges.
Spectate the hell out of Scca and Nasa events because its 'free'.
Was here yesterday... Good luck out there!

i hope that's not your track budget. i do a season of nasa and various other trackdays for about half that including a set of tires and brake pads, and about 6-7 oil changes.

What is your alternative NASA? Personally, last time I went w/ NASA to Road Atlanta I got 4 20 minute sessions, and generally atleast 1 session per day got cut short due to one of the racers wrecking. A lot of the smaller clubs offer a more friendly environment, and lower participation numbers in exchange for more money. Its more about the experience than dollars/time.

^ Yeah thats kinda my problem with them two. cmp is my closest track. and I went to both the pdx events they put on this year at cmp. Really not that many. I am going to try to make it to vir next year when they do the pdx up there, the awesome thing is that they are really looking upbeat about doing the pdx at vir again. When was thscc running? I doubt I would be able to make it to the one in october... unfortunately.

Either way, I am not doing it for the money, but I would be reallllly disappointed if they cancelled CMP over participation numbers.

Which NASA region are you guys in? PCA is a great alternative out here, plus you get to whoop up on some fancy P-cars 
I'd recommend Trackdaze and MazdaDrivers also, but I think they're primarily East Coast (although Trackdaze has strayed as far west as Autobahn in Joliet, IL).
