A list of Texas HPDEs
We should have a sticky which shows all of the Southwest M3 post members their options for HPDEs. I like to run with the Driver's Edge but they aren't always on convenient weekends and are rarely before/after a holiday which would be nice. I think a consolidated list of track days would make my (and everyone else's) search easier. AND I would think it promotes high performance driving and organizations that conduct such events. Promotes competition also. So, IMO, this is a win-win. Hopefully this tread doesn't end up bankrupting our resident track junkies.
So here is what I've gathered so far for tracks, schools, and dates. TRACKS TWS = Texas World Speedway - College Station, TX MSRC = Motorsport Ranch - Cresson, TX (20 min S of Ft Worth) MSRH = Motorsport Ranch Houston - Angleton, TX (30 min S of Houston) ECR = Eagle Canyon Raceway - Decatur, TX (N of Ft Worth) HHR = Harris Hill Road = San Marcos, TX GSS = Grandsport Speedway = Hitchrock, TX (SE of Houston) ORGANIZATIONS Texas Speed Syndicate (TSS) - http://texasspeedsyndicate.com/ TWS Performance Driving School (TWS PDS) - www.clubregistration.net The Driver's Edge (TDE) - www.thedriversedge.net Apex Driving Academy (ADA) - www.apexdrivingacademy.com Houston M Club (HMC) - www.houstonmclub.com BMWCCA - Lone Star Chapter (BLSR) - www.lscbmwcca.org BMWCCA - Houston Chapter (BHOU) - www.houston-bmwcca.com BMWCCA - Tejas Chapter (BTEJ) - www.tejaschapter.org Lone Star Region PCA (LSRP) - www.lsrpca.com Maverick Region PCA (MAVP) NASA Texas Region (NTR) ...note...I will abbreviate BMWCCA chapters with a "B" plus 3 letters. But for Porsche, I will put the "P" behind the 3 letters to follow the rear engine theme. CONFIRMED TRACK DATES (date/organization/track/direction & config) Sep 8-9 TDE @ MSRH (CW) 14 PDS @ TWS (Solo Q'd only) 15-16 MAVP @ MSR (CCW) 22 ADA @ MSRC (1.7) 29-30 TDE @ MSRC (3.1 CCW) Oct 6-7 NTR @ ECR 13 ADA @ MSRC (1.3) 13-14 TDE @ TWS (CW) 20 PDS @ TWS 20-21 BLSR @ MSRC (1.7 CW/CCW) 26 PDS @ TWS (Solo Q'd only) 27-28 MAVP @ MSR (solo only DE) Nov 4-5 TDE @ MSRH 10 ADA @ MSRC (1.7) 10-11 MAVP @ ECR 10-11 NTR @ NOLA Motorsports Park, Avondale LA 17-18 TWS PDS @ TWS Dec 1 ADA @ MSRC (1.7) 8-9 TDE @ MSRC 15-16 TWS PDS @ TWS 16 TSS @ MSRH

For Those in North Texas.....
DFW AutoClub has quite a few people that do HPDE's regularly (Often with enough people to have their own run groups). It's a very good mixed brand (lots of BMW's) local (DFW) site with an interesting and diverse membership. Steve Fordham at Autoscope mid-cities is very knowledgeable about what events are coming up. He generally organizes the DFW AutoClub groups.

I've added the 2nd half of the The driver's edge schedule. I usually run with TDE so please just post the details of the event if I've missed any. I just want this thread to be fair and balanced.
