Croc Posted November 12 Share Posted November 12 Friday June 13 and Saturday June 14, 2025 Thunderbolt circuit - freshly repaved at the beginning of 2024. For 2025 they will have done the new circuit change which is a cut through of the "octopus' head at Thunderbolt, rejoining at the 'squiggles' just before the bridge. So it will be a much faster course. If your se7en is not working then yes we can arrange for you to participate with a non-7 in another group. If you are new to the track in your se7en then the introductory program is a gentle way to learn the basics in a safe pace car environment with classroom learning. If we do not get a minimum of 10 cars we will be out with the open wheel group. As people found in previous years this is not a problem other that you need to learn passing in the corners as those Formula Fords and Radicals are quite quick. Dates are subject to NJMP finalization and approval of track schedule for all groups (not just its DC program). More details will follow 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stalker LS3 Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 This event is on the list! Question, fairly new to the South/East, how does one handle the hot/humid weather at the track. As camping at the track really keeps costs down plus I don't like leaving my gear unattended. Thanks Scott in Chattanooga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Scott in Chattanooga Early June tends to be a little cooler. 60s to mid 70s. Usually a little wet that time of year too. I wouldn't worry about humidity and the track has nighttime security. I slept in my car last time with zero issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to see if I can push Bruce to do an engine start at his Christmas Party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the history and spec on your Stalker? Did you build it yourself or buy at some point? 17 hours ago, Stalker LS3 said: how does one handle the hot/humid weather at the track. Hydrate!!!! Skip the worst days as you just knock your body around too much. Your driving season extends late into the year the further south you go so kick your days back later in the year when the weather is more reasonable. NJMP has showers in the pits - take a cold one to bring you back to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
