View Full Version : Any DE at Road Atlanta in June? SG_M3 03-17-2007, 09:58 PM I can't find a schedule but, is there a DE in either of the first or second weekend in june for road atlanta? krisko 03-17-2007, 10:45 PM None of the usual suspects will be there in June (peachtree bmw, nasa). Peachstate PCA will be there and I'm pretty sure they'll take a BMW. I also checked trackschedule.com (every driving event in the east) but the site is down. http://www.peachstatepca.org/driving/pca_de.asp ///M3///M5 03-17-2007, 10:48 PM You coming down Sean? EDIT: replace "down" with "over"... :D SG_M3 03-17-2007, 11:13 PM You coming down Sean? EDIT: replace "down" with "over"... :D i'm instructing at Barber over memorial day weekend. And was thinking why not make it 2 for 1 while i'm over there. I have to be back in tx by june 16/17 to race here, but the first two weekends are good. chris, you ever run with the pca group? Whats the word on them? krisko 03-18-2007, 06:57 AM chris, you ever run with the pca group? Whats the word on them? I've never run with Peachstate but I know a lot of the drivers and they're great guys. I've run with Alabama PCA and they're awesome. Check with Peachstate and see if you can get in. Even if they drop a 'no bmws' rule on you I might still be able to get you in...PM me down the road. s14realm3 03-19-2007, 01:52 PM www.trackschedule.com SG_M3 03-19-2007, 02:01 PM anyone know of a good place that could store my truck/trailer/car for the two weeks between events? krisko 03-19-2007, 02:05 PM anyone know of a good place that could store my truck/trailer/car for the two weeks between events? Hmmm...obvious choice would be Strictly German which is right down the street but I've heard that place is for sale. I have some buds in the area but they all live in subdivisions. As a last resort you can take the rig to a storage place and pay $50 or so. If you know anybody at Sunbelt you can give them a call. In the back of their property they have a spot that would accomodate your setup. They will likely charge you a few bucks (if you can believe that) but it's an option. M3BimmerBilly 03-19-2007, 03:01 PM PCA will allow BMWs to run. That is, if you can sign up before its filled. Like most, registration for members opens up a week earlier and from my experience is typically full by the end of the week. Its the entire reason why I joined the PCA. If I recall correctly, you must submit a VIN # of your Porsche in order to be a member. Peachstate runs an outstanding opertation. They are my favorite HPDEs. krisko 03-19-2007, 03:04 PM If I recall correctly, you must submit a VIN # of your Porsche in order to be a member. I did that when I joined PCA. No joke but somebody that's affiliated with PCA DE's (won't say so as not to incriminate them) told me to snag a Porsche VIN off ebay. SG_M3 03-19-2007, 03:22 PM I did that when I joined PCA.

I still have the title papers. tommelton 03-19-2007, 03:33 PM Hmmm...obvious choice would be Strictly German which is right down the street but I've heard that place is for sale. I asked Bobby about that one time, about a year ago - he said just about everything is for sale for the right price. There may be a For Sale sign out front, and if someone came along and paid what he wanted, sure, he would sell. But he is still open and doing business. -Tom krisko 03-19-2007, 03:48 PM wanna sign up for me chris? :D Sure...can I use your car?:D M3BimmerBilly 03-19-2007, 04:09 PM wanna sign up for me chris? :D BTW, the PCA demands you have equal restraints in your car. No matter if its a racecar or whatever. So, if the Green M3 in your sig doesnt have matching/equivalent seats/harnesses they wont let you past tech. Just a heads up.

Just a heads up. i don't have a pass. seat at all..that going to be a problem? krisko 03-19-2007, 04:32 PM i don't have a pass. seat at all..that going to be a problem? Just contact them...that would suck to show up and not get on track. M3BimmerBilly 03-19-2007, 04:47 PM i don't have a pass. seat at all..that going to be a problem? Actually Im mistaken. Youll be OK. Contact them to double check. I misinterperted what I was told until I read the rule book. I remember my instructor wasnt able to bring his full-race m3 with a seat setup like yours....it was because they had a instructor class on Friday that required equal restraints. Youll be in group 4 so I dont think it will matter. Sorry for the false alarm. well, hopefully false. Student and Intermediate entrants’ cars must be equipped with a Passenger Seat with equal and adequate passenger restraints (i.e. Seat and Shoulder Belts) as the driver. |
