Hi everyone, I've been gone from the FFR fold a few years working on a different Mark Smith project...which just went to Texas with it's new owner last week. I am anxious ti get back to track driving. I was active in HPDE and beginning to TT with NASA, with my previous Factory Five Roadster street cars up until a few years ago. I'm buying an existing beautiful functional legal FFR Challenge car from my local buddy, Richard Bailey. Goal: Keep playing on track with the added safety and simplicity of a Spec FFR. I live in Florida, so plan to hit events at PBIR, Homestead and Sebring whenever possible. I'm not a licensed competition driver with any of the race organizations. I'm retiring in a couple of months and will be spending several months each year near Waynesville, NC, just west of Asheville.
Question: are there places near Waynesville NC I could reasonably tow the FFR (or drive it on the road...I'm trying to license it for occasional street use) for track time? OR Autocross? or any other ideas? Trying to plan the best use of this great car with the expanded time I'll have to play with it. I hope to become more familiar with the Challenge community now, and am sorry I got disconnected from the FFR community for so long! Thanks for your input.
