Please lock in September 18-19 for a two day NJMP Drivers Club Event with a Se7ens run group on the Thunderbolt Circuit. 

 

Details now posted here:

Croc  can correct me if I’m wrong but I think this is 12th year we have had this event. We started with five or six cars and grew to at one point to twenty four I think.  I was told we will be given our own Se7ens only run group if we have at least ten cars participating so I’m pretty hopeful we can get to at least that number. And they did not limit us this year as they did the last two years. 
 

We are looking forward to seeing the regular attendees and hopefully a lot more first timers.    This is a friendly event. It’s not a race, it’s an HPDE.  If you have never  been on track before it’s the ideal chance as there is a dedicated Green group with classroom and in car instruction available, which gives you the opportunity to learn the track and your car’s capabilities without the stress of passing.  And if your progress warrants, you may be allowed to join in on the Sevens only run group.    
 

So start getting your car ready, tires ordered or asking for permission from your better half if necessary.  Croc and I look forward to seeing you all .  Tom

I will be there!! I was worried about the date because we are going to October Fest for the last weekend.

Croc will post a comprehensive tome on all the details once he comes up for air. He’s probably swamped at work since he’s been on vacation/traveling for the last couple months .  Either that or he’s polishing his fleet of cars and that could take him into June or July.

Looking forward to another event and seeing the group.  Think I'll leave my new bonnet at home this year and bring the 'track bonnet'

WTF?    

 

 

[yellowss7]

Sorry my proofreading skills have deteriorated sharply.  That was not intentional.  

[SK400]

Really - really -  looking forward to it.  Will be there guys!

Thanks for organizing as usual. Can't wait to see the gang.

I'll be there! Thanks to the hosts for bringing the Se7ens community a fantastic annual event! 

[yellowss7]

I should also mention that wives and significant others are invited and welcome to join in on the fun.  We usually have a good number attending.

Unfortunately, think I need to be a maybe.  Date conflicts with a VSCDA race at Road America.  
 

However, given the seemingly never ending issues with the Mallock, I’m not counting myself out yet.

Steve, start polishing now so that if the Mallock does let’s you down you won’t be ashamed bringing a dull car.     Tom

Excellent John.  Looking forward to running with you this year.  We will have to see if Croc’s new car will make an appearance

Went to Gingerman, MI, last Saturday to shake the winter cobwebs and get mentally ready for the 2022 season and eventually NJMP in September.  Starting to enjoy the new 500 spec engine after SBD fuel mapping session earlier this winter and almost a year of trouble shooting.  Don’t want to jinx it but I think slowing getting there. The car is a real pleasure to drive..  sooo strong! A noticeable difference from our 400 spec .. might now have to upgrade the brakes!!!   Gingerman was a real challenge to drive. Took me two days to recuperate physically trying to hold on to the beast.  
 

Can’t wait to seeing the gang soon.

Gingerman is a great track, fun, changing, safe. and 7 friendly. I have done trackdays there on not bikes and cars.
