Who knows. At first, COTA was not going to allow DEs at the track. They have allowed a couple of DE orgs to do some events on a trial basis. This event by the Drivers Edge is the first one which seems to be going well. Although the organizer did screen drivers (read: eliminated jackasses)...I just made the cut.

The next is MVP 1-3 Feb and then BMWCCA 7-9 June.

I think BMWCCA may have a long term contract for 2 per year...not sure. You can increase your chances if you drive an HPDE or auto-x with a BMWCCA chapter in Texas (Tejas, Lone Star, and Houston). Those who have recently driven with on of those chapters gets first shot at registration. The Lone Star chapter has a DE at the end of Apr at MSR Cresson which might be a qualifier for the Oct COTA event.
