Looking at the entries as of late, we are seriously thinking of making the switch to ST4 sooner then later.

I’m on the fence between the TNIA event or the SCCA event there the next day. The SCCA event on Friday is more expensive but you get 4 vs 3 sessions.

SCCA just announced a TNIA event at Sebring on 9/12. 12-hour course. I'm signed up in intermediate. Anyone interested in going?

Edit: 3:20pm until 7p? Eff that. It's the hottest time of of the day. I would do it if it was actually at night. Then again it is 2 hours each way plus loading and unloading which is a little tough to justify for three sessions. If it started at 5 p.m. and they had four sessions I would be all over it. I might even do it if it started at 6 and had three sessions.

NASA SE is doing a track weekend at Roebling Road. ~$300 for a 2-day event. I love this track as you spend a ton of time at the limit and some of the turns require large attachments. Anyone else going?

I'll probably ask for an evaluation for 3 on Sunday.

I bet your car is going through withdraw. I can stop by and swap cars for the weekend.

Brakes are still sitting in boxes packed under other boxes, splitter just delaminated to tick me off.
Garage is going to look awesome just taking way to long.

SCCA SEDIV is having a TT at TGPR October 5-6. They are finishing the year at Roebling November 16th and 17th. They are honoring the new TT classing scheme at both tracks (TTN rules), so roll bars/cages are not mandatory this year if you're on a 200TW tire. Roebling always offers great bang for the buck with ample track time and minimal lap traffic.

The Track Night in America group is running a Sebring event sponsored by Hagerty. Looks like inexpensive track time and cool weather. Good time for quick laps.

Details:
- November 17th (Sunday)
- $75 for 3x20 minute sessions in the morning.
- $75 for 3x20 minute sessions in the afternoon.
- you have to be a Hagerty member ($45 annual membership) to register.
- All in, you can get 6x20 minute sessions for under $200.

They must be planning on having a lot of cars on the track at once to offer it that inexpensively. Unless Haggerty has just got it figured into its advertising budget and expect to keep the customers as clients afterwards.

I'm already planning on doing Saturday the 16th with Performance Driving Group there at Sebring.
