I know it will be an extremely well run event and chances are the weather will be spectacular as well. Should be a great time!

General registration is now open on the NCM website - here's a link:

http://www.corvettemuseum.org/regist...ing/info.shtml


Sounds like it will be a great event!!! There will be an autocross, car show, and those with convertibles can do "touring laps" and get classroom instruction on driving the track:

In addition to the NCM’s usual 4 run groups plus Instructor sessions there is a new feature; special Touring Laps for those with convertibles and/or drivers that don’t want to do the full out HPDE school. These laps will be special sessions with lead-follow direction to learn the line as well as basic classroom.
.
.
The 2-day HPDE is $475 for an NCM member and $515 for Non-member (includes a 1 year discounted membership). The Touring lap option is available for $100 for 1 3-session day for the driver and $25 for a passenger. The People’s Choice Car Show is $15 per entry, will feature stock and modified classes and 2 custom classes and is open to non-NCCC members. The autocross is $40 for the Friday practice day (non-sanctioned) or $10 for “I’ll try that once” outing. Saturday is $50 for 7 NCCC sanctioned events and rides are available as well.
C'ya at the track!!

Bob
