Hey guys, it's that time again. Time to start planning your events for 2014 and registration is now open for the National F-Body Motorsports Event. This is a great gathering and a great group. It's in Memphis this year (and my wife likes Memphis and is recommending that we go....so....).

Info is here:

Road course, drag racing, autocross, car show and a good time hanging out with friends from across the country.

Excellent group...and lots of fun. Tends to be lots of track time if you want to try out something new.

And good eats and drinks....

Bock, you should still have mod rights in this forum (if you want the job). (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

How much road course time usually? I notice that the RC uses the drag strip so I don't know if that reduces the RC time.

At the last event I attended, I believe it was four 30 minute sessions per day...

Over the past few years the event has needed to be reconfigured a bit to two days (from 3) in an effort to reduce the total cost, as well as allow for the attendees to keep their travel expenses lower.
With this in mind, I am not sure what the exact format of the Road course event will be and I don't know the track time allowed. It will be plenty relative to the cost I am certain.

In the past, the (recently repaved) road course did use the drag strip as the main straight which is exciting... on both ends. I believe it still does.

MIR has a local Bracket event scheduled on the 17th so they will need to have the drag strip cleared by then.

This will be my first year to run road course. I've always dragged but have now morphed my car more into road course and autocross so that's where I'll be participating. I've never heard anyone complain about not getting enough track time for their dollar on either side, drag or road course. For the money you can't beat it.

I have to say that you won't find a better bunch of people more dedicated to going fast and having fun. Register. Come. Enjoy.
