All!
During the last mega-meet in Baltimore last month, many expressed an interest in organizing another meet at a racetrack. We are organizing a mega-meeting at the New Jersey Motorsports Park on September 12th. (final date TBD).
RR Racing IS-F at the last NJMP track testing session on July 21.
There will be an opportunity for members to drive on the track! We are also proposing an exciting agenda for the meeting including:
Track driving with an instructor (or, if qualified, on your own)
Lunch included
Plenty of time to socialize and meet other club members and share car experiences
Technical product discussions (the benefits and operations of an Air Oil Separator, RR Racing USRS installation, race suspension basics, etc.)
RR Racing product demonstrations
RR Racing product drawing
Special EVENT ONLY discounts on our products
Other -- please let us know what you would like to do!
This agenda is still tentative and will largely depend on the number of members interested to participate and number of members interested to drive on the track.
Track event will be held in cooperation with Hooked on Driving club.
There will be cost to attend this meeting. The cost to drive with an instructor is starting at only $164. For those who are just interested in attending the events and watch others drive, the cost will be $20 for entrance and lunch. Helmets will be available for rental for $25. Please note that RR Racing will sponsor some of the cost including prizes that we will raffle.
We need to know the number of members interested in participating, how many are interested in driving, your driving level, and other activities you would be interested in. Please respond to this post or send us a PM.
What are the safety requirements for the cars that want to track? I understand some tracks does not allow coolant in the system. If a car is basically stock can it run without further prep?

You will just have to remove everything not attached by the manufacturer such as carpets, spare tire, wheel tools and jack, radar detector, even the EZ pass. We will get together in the morning and get a briefing about what to do.
We will update the post with additional instructions and specifics on how to register next week sometime.
Quick update. Most likely the event will be on 9/12. We are trying to determine whether the Lexus and GT86 groups are large enough to split into another day, but most likely we will just do an event on the same day.
Also, we may offer "Taste of the Track" registration at a lower cost. This will limit you to one track drive session with an instructor.
Stay tuned for the final update of the original post in this thread for the final registration details.
Please note an updated registration information on the IS-F thread. Hot on Driving was able to allocate few more instructors, so we are extending registration until they fill up! However, please register as soon as possible -- they still have limited number of instructors.

When do we need to arrive at the track? I need to know when to leave my house by. Thanks.
Registration will be closed on Tuesday for the people who need to drive with an instructor. Please register ASAP, if you are interested driving with an instructor.
Anyone that is interested just coming to the meeting and eating lunch, please also register as well ASAP -- we need to make sure to order enough food.
Hooked on Driving asked to come as early as 6:30 to 7:30 for on-site registration and helmet rentals. Driver meeting will be at 08:00 as we informed in the past.
