if you're doing the HPDE, you can get by with tape … shoot, even if you're doing TT you can get by with tape
In reply to wbjones:
Yeah I know, I have tape with me.. but the car has to look good for my photos ;-)
In reply to Keith Tanner:
I'd love to do HPR but it was too hard to work it into the schedule. Might do Pueblo on July 18th if I'm running late on the trip home though. I'll try to stop in at FM when I'm in Colorado either way!
Oh rad! Never heard of that place before. What's the schedule around July 14-17? nothing listed on their race calendar.
How about Thompson Speedway in Connecticut? New pavement on a recently reopened road course from the 70's, not to far from Boston or NYC.

Wide open. It's not a busy track, most of the time it's just available for kart rental and you can take a car out on those days. Just not when the karts are on track, they get stuck in the wheels :)
Red Rock Racers have a track day on the 19th, but that's outside your window.
I'm running at NJMP thunderbolt in the Lemons car on July 10th, which would probably fit in your transit down the northeast coast from the glen to VIR.
That sounds like a blast. I'm envious of your trip.
Btw discovery parts has a mobile store at cmp , at least they usually do. Great guy and good prices. I think he carries numbers...
OK I'll check out Discovery Parts. Thanks!
What's a good place to book a room by CMP? I'm driving up from Palm Coast tomorrow and/or Friday.
there's the scary executive inn kershaw sc (cheap)
lots of folk stay in Camden, about 30 min. south of the track … the only name I know there is the Colony Inn … I'm sure there are others
I stay at the Super 8 (formally a Best Western) in Lancaster SC ( about 30 min N of the track)… been staying there 5 - 6 times a yr for 6 - 7 yrs (again this is the only one I'm familiar with in Lancaster .. I'm sure there are others)
to the best of my knowledge (other than the "Executioner" in Kershaw) there aren't any others between Camden to the south and Lancaster to the north
Last time I was at CMP we stayed at the Comfort Inn in Camden, and found it to be a nice place to stay. Clean, recently renovated, reasonable prices, no complaints. Make sure to have dinner at Sam Kendall's, right in downtown Camden.
thanks for helping him out … I knew there were other places in Camden … just didn't know which they were
Thanks for the tips on lodging! I have a room now. I'll probably stop by the track tonight to get tech out of the way.
here's the link to the Road Atlanta event we were talking about Sun

Thanks for the link! Looks like online registration closed on Monday while I was still on the road-- I'll email Diane to see if I can still get in.
Diane said I could register at the event.. So I'll try to get there by 7 AM on Sunday for the driver's meeting and registration.
I met ross2004 today at VIR and had a blast on track.
I'm heading for Road Atlanta now for the SCCA PDX tomorrow. Hope to make it early enough for morning reg and the driver's meeting. See you there wbjones!
I'll be heading west on Sunday evening and it'll take a few days to get to Colorado. Are there any other tracks along the way that might have some weekday HPDE events?
