I live in ok and would like to learn,watch,help,ride along anything. Is anyone going that could use an extra set of hands?

Hey I will be going to Hallett on july 2 for a track do with a group of 20 guys. I will be bringign my 02 ws6 and I know another guy will have a 99 trans am. you are more than welcome to come out and watch if you want to, the only bad part is july 2nd is a tuesday...

You going to be there next weekend for the NASA Summer Shootout? You should be at least. CMC and AI racing will be awesome to watch. Doubt you can get a ride along since there isn't HPDE and few of the race guys have passenger seats. But a great opportunity to look and learn about the cars. And yes there is always the opportunity for an extra set of hands. How much do you want to help? I'm the black 02 Camaro #24.

I'll be there as well - white & orange Camaro #29. I'll be in pit stall #13. Stop by to say hi, look around, ask questions & what-not. You'll find it's a very friendly and open group that will tell you anything you want to know, let you take pictures, sit in the cars, etc. As Bryan said, we can't take you out for ride alongs at this particular event (no HPDE sessions) but everything else you mentioned should be no problem. Hope to see you out there...

I'll be there as well. I run tech for NASA. You are more than welcome to come hang out with me and my crew. Hell we might recruit you to help! We'll be there the 22-23. Just ask where tech is and come introduce yourself! My name is Ross

Looks like I'll have to make my rounds! refuse to miss out this year like I have in the past. I work graveyard and will moat likely have to work that weekend but I will still come for a few hours at least! As far as helping, I'll do whatever I can. Not afraid of getting dirty!


What time would be best to be there?

Btw my name is Jeremy. I'll ne looking forward to that weekend

2002TAWS6, I might come then too just so I have a chance to ride around track... If it's HPDE

Any time between 8-4 really.....

I'll try and post the schedule when I find it

Ok I'll keep checking back

Hey Jesse! yea ill have my black '99 out there. No one be afraid to introduce yourselves!

here is the basic schedule. First time for me being on a road course so i don't know about ride alongs and what not, but ill have a seat open!

Mix Group 1 = 4:35pm



Mix Group 2 = 4:55pm

I think Hallet will make you take along an instructor for your first couple sessions.

That looks like a nice schedule, four groups should keep traffic low and that's a lot of track time regardless.

This is Saturdays schedule?

This is Saturdays schedule?

no, that is for july 2nd. I would like to see the CMC cars run what weekend is that?

It's the 22-23 of this month

It's next weekend - June 22-23. Schedule below...

Here's a rough decoder for the race group names on the schedule:
Thunder = CMC & AI (Camaros vs Mustangs)
Cyclone = Miatas
Blitz - BMWs, Porsches, Corvettes, Vipers, Ferraris
Lightning = Everything else...mostly small bore imports

Thank you!!!

I already asked off! Looks like I'll plan to arrive around 7:30sat and leave around 5:30. I'll probably make my rounds and meet you all. (time allowing) like I said, I will help as much as you will let me. You guys just say what you need.

Looks like I see some HPDE sessions....


Just in case, what do I need to bring for this? Helmet? Closed toe shoes? Pants?

I'll be there also.

You can get a ride along in the HPDE3 group if you can find someone willing. The cost is $5 to get an arm band that will allow you to ride with anyone in the HPDE3 group.

James

Ok.


Anyone know the entry fee?

James, I think you were the only one I didn't meet.


Thanks guys for being so open. I had a great time and with I could make it tomorrow.
I'm definitely going to plan for next year.


Side note, I got home and realized the cooler in my car had the drain open all day.....
I'm very face burned and tired but all worth it. Casey, too bad on your car braking and thanks for the insight on my car build. I have a build thread on tgo.org you can pm me and I can send you a link if you want I need the motivation. Brian, sorry about the bad luck. Good thing you were fine both times though!

I am sometimes hard to catch up with since I am also group leading HPDE3. My car broke early on Saturday, so I didn't spend that much time around my pit either this weekend.

Look what was on ctw motorsports website. There is my 53kb of fame!(upper left bleachers)
