    FFR Open House / Northeast Trackday Tour

    I've talked to a few folks over the past year about the possibility of lining up a few trackdays around the date of the FFR Open House. I'd love to see 5 - 10 coupes on track at once and hey, it wouldn't hurt to have unlimited pit support on hand as well!

    With the open house set for Saturday June 11, I have a few possibilities to throw on the table and see what we can coordinate with as many as possible. If anyone has serious interest let me know so we can get everyone registered before the events sell out...the spots for less expereinced drivers tend to sell out quickest.

    June 6 (Mon) - Limerock Park with PDA / NASA Northeast

    June 7/8 (Tues/Wed) - Watkins Glen with Track Masters

    June 10 (Fri) - NJMP with NARRA (Viper Club) (experienced Solo drivers only)

    June 13 (Mon) - Watkins Glen with BMWCCA Patroon ("the longest day")

    I wish it wasn't so darn far away, I'd love to run my coupe on any of those tracks.

    Do you know if these are quiet days or not? I'm not sure how many coupes would pass the low noise levels.

    LRP on 6/6 has 85db limit

    The LRP date is subject to their new and improved 85db at 50 feet rules, but WGI and NJMP don't have any restrictions.

    I got away with stock sidepipes at LRP last year by criss crossing some wire across the exhaust exits but I believe the limit was 89db last year and they likely gave us a break because we tried and the cars looked great on track.

    Does anyone have stock sidepipe db readings at 50ft or the more typical 100 ft?

    FFR Open House / Northeast Trackday Tour

    C'mon folks, I know it's 2 months away but I was hoping for a bit more interest.

    Russ, if you fly out East to the Open House I bet we can get you into someone's car. Perhaps one from the FFR stable?

    Karen, let's go show those Vipers what we can do with a couple less cylinders!

    I updated the info a bit to give more background on the dates and links for details re: registration, experience requirements, etc. What might make most sense is to skip LRP due to noise restrictions, hit NJMP first on Friday, refresh the cars while at open house, then do the longest day at WGI on Monday.

    June 6 (Mon) - New Hampshire Motor Speedway with SCDA (open to all driving experience levels) https://www.scda1.com/events/detail_by_id/43474079

    June 6 (Mon) - Limerock Park with PDA / NASA Northeast (85db limit, open to all driving experience levels) http://www.nasane.com/events.html

    June 7/8 (Tues/Wed) - Watkins Glen with Track Masters (Open Track & Intermediate Drivers School) https://www.trackmasters.com/Page.asp?Script=1

    June 10 (Fri) - NJMP with NARRA (Viper Club) (experienced Solo drivers only) http://dev.narraonline.com/schedule/...k-june-10.html

    June 13 (Mon) - Watkins Glen with BMWCCA Patroon ("the longest day", open to all driving experience levels, extended track hours) http://www.patroon.motorsportreg.com/

    Let's make it happen!

    Dan
