NJ/NY/CT Track Day Thread

Hey guys, making a thread for us track guys instead of in the regional section. Post up the tracks/days you plan to go and maybe we can setup a cruise to the track, meet up etc


- Friday/Saturday July 20/21 Lime Rock Park to see the IMSA race. Leaving around 0630 both days (Non-race event)

- Saturday August 25th Lime Rock Park for BMW CCA, will be participating. Cost around $365 for 4x20min sessions. Never been on the track so I will start with this. Will leave Queens around 0400

- Sunday August 26th New Jersey Motorsport Park Lightning. Will be my second time at this track running in Intermediate. Will leave Queens around 0330

- Thursday September 17th NJMP Thunderbolt. Same as above

We got lucky! Only had one session in the rain, more than half of the day the line was dry. Had a great day, got point bys from a GTR and a Z06, so it's hard not to be proud of my lowly 28i.

I'll be at MPact East on August 11th, registered for NASA NE HPDE. Should be an awesome show for anyone interested. They also have 1/2 mile racing and other events.

Awesome! Glad you had a good time and the weather held up

Haha, I didn't know about it and my schedule sucks (aviation profession)

I just started tracking the car so I haven't looked into all of the events yet

Ahh. Makes sense. Weekend is the most busy time for travel.

I started tracking last year. Started with NASA NE. Fantastic experience with this group. Good camaraderie, fairly chill, safe and safe driving on track, generator people are well mannered on track and the instructors I've met have all been very helpful (so far). Also, they tend to have events at NJMP, Pocono, Watkins Glen, and Limerock. All conveniently close if you live in the NYC area.

Registered for the last racing weekend for NASA NE next weekend (Oct 13 & 14) at NJMP Thunderbolt. I'm doing HPDE, of course. Anyone going?

That's too bad. Hopefully you can make that one.
There's one more NASA NE HPDE November 3 & 4. I'm planning on that one too.
