"Private Track Rental" at NJMP - Thunderbolt $250 per...3-30-2012
As the title states, I will be renting New Jersey Motorsports Part Thunderbolt course on March 30th 2012. We've done this 2 years in a row and it's turned out great. It will be a majority modern american muscle event but ALL cars are welcomed. Beginners will have instructors (beginners group is already full) and there will be 3 run groups (beginner, intermediate and advanced). It will be santioned by NASA NE (www.nasane.com) which means NASA will be running the day of the event from classroom, pit in and out, tech, etc. It will be very organized and safe.
We are currently looking for intermediate to advanced drivers to fill up spots since we have come up short on drivers this year. The cost for the event is $257.78. That will get you four 30 minute sessions on the track. for the day. If you are on Facebook please follow the group I created for the day if interested... http://www.facebook.com/groups/2012ModernMoparTrackDay Everyone planning to attend please send a email to 2012modernmopartrackday@gmail.com with: 1. Your full name 2. email address 3. cell number 4. Forum you frequent and forum screen name 5.Vehicle you'll be using at the event 6. On track experience If there's anyone outside the forum, not on facebook and wants to attend give them the official email address... 2012modernmopartrackday@gmail.com and the same instructions posted above. So far we have these cars confirmed.... 2006 Chrysler 300c srt8 2008 Charger R/T 2004 Pontiac GTO 1973 Pontiac Firebird 2004 Dodge Viper 2005 Mustang 2006 Charger R/T 2010 Challenger R/T 2010 Dodge Challenger*R/T 2008 G8 GT 2010 Challenger Srt8 2004 SRT-4 2005 Magnum R/T 2003 Dodge Neon SRT-4 2006 Charger R/T 2008 Magnum SRT8 1986 Porshce 944 2010 c6 z06 Pontiac GTO Pontiac GTO 2006 Charger SRT8 2005 Magnum R/T 1997 Dodge Viper GTS 2005 Supercharged M3 2009.5 Pontiac G8 GXP 2002 Camaro Z/28 2003 Mustang GT 2009 Challenger SRT 8 2009 Charger SRT 1994 BMW 325i 2010 Camaro SS 2009 Challenger R/T 2004 ferrari 360 modena 2010 challenger srt8 2006 Pontiac gto 2006 pontiac gto 2012 Camaro SS 2010 Ford GT500 2004 Pontiac GTO 2009 Charger SRT8 Super Bee 2008 corvette z06 Dodge Neon SRT-4 2005 Lotus Elise 2009 Challenger srt8 (2 spots) 2011 Mustang GT 2010 Camaro SS 2002 Pontiac Trans Am 1998 BMW E36 M3 coupe 2006 nissan 350z 2011 nissan 370z 2011 corvette zr1 Here is a short video of me during a NASA event last year at NJMP Lightning.

Are you the guy with the dark red 300C SRT8? If so, I think I've seen you at about every track day I've done over the last year--NJMP, LRP, Watkins Glen! If it's you, you were running really quick lap times at Watkins Glen last fall (during that horrible 45-degree, rainy/foggy weekend), I'm assuming in Advanced, but then I saw you had done some damage to the rear corner of the car. Hope you got everything fixed up without a problem.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make it, but I'm sure I'll see you at some point this season. I have a blue M3 sedan. I think I first saw your car at a Monticello PDA/NASA event two summers ago--you were running what looked like Continental take-offs. Based on your speed and lap times, your car must handle well for a relatively large vehicle. Have you done suspension work to it? Do you leave the transmission in automatic or do you have a tap-shift type option?

What are the requirements to meet the intermediate group? I haven't been to any HPDE days like this before but have taken part in several different driving schools......

I'll put you on the reserve list. If someone drops off I'll contact you to take there place.
You sure can. Bring as many friends as you would like. Quote:
Driving experience and if your ready to ride without a instructor. If you driven on Thunderbolt course at the drving schools before that will bump you up as well.

^Haven't driven the road courses down there. When I had my shifter Tony Kart I used to run it there on the Kart track, other than that I've done the M Schools and a Skip Barber School...

Wow, that's a good price. I've done the 2 day BMWCCA school at Lightning and Lime Rock. Does that qualify me to be in intermediate?

I spoke to a good friend (M3 and M5 owner) and he said the M School is legit. That being said this is what I can do for the both of you. Put you both in intermediate and have a instructor ride with you the 1st session to check your driving skills and show the lines. Sounds good?

Instructors will be assigned to the Beginners for the entire day. However, the beginners group is full. For the intermediate group you can get a instructor for the 1st session of the day. No problem, shoot over the information asked for in the 1st post and I'll reply with more information about the event.
