Default NCM HPDE - Putnam Park IN-Oct 4-5

Adam Boca sent the notice out on HPDE@LISTSERV.CORVETTEMUSEUM.COM -
Registration opens Monday, Aug 18, 8:00 AM CDT
http://www.corvettemuseum.com/regist...info2008.shtml

Edited event info from above link:


"Putnam Park Racetrack in Mount Meridian , Indiana , approximately 50 miles west of Indianapolis . The 1.8-mile, 10-turn track has small elevation changes and large clear run-off areas. An ideal track for both the beginning student and the experienced driver.

The school is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, October 4-5, 2008. Students must drive either a coupe (including Z06) or FRC Corvette; convertibles are only permitted if they have an SCCA roll cage. The price will be $340 for members and $390 for non-members. The registration fee will include a long sleeve event t-shirt, lots of track time and a lunch voucher for the driver for each day. Non-members will receive a one-year NCM individual membership with their payment. Cutoff date for refunds is September 3, 2008. All students in the beginner, novice and intermediate level will have classroom instruction and will be accompanied by an instructor in their car while on track. Advanced students will be checked out for possible solo status.

[Additionally] The NCM is also offering 2 opportunities for NCM PrimeDrive. The first is PrimeDrive Ladies and the second is an open PrimeDrive for individuals who are not quite sure they are ready or interested in a 2 day HPDE. Please check the link above for more information on PrimeDrive."

Default I'm registered

I'm registered.

Adam;
Did I read correctly that registration for this event included a one year membership in the NCM?
If so will I get the member discount for the events for the ZFEST that is next month?

Later,

Superb event. Nice to see old friends and meet new ones. It was nice of GM to provide a few ZR1's for the driving pleasure of some and the gawking pleasure of the rest of us. Awsome cars, awsome event!
