    NASA Midwest at GingerMan (June 9-10)

    Be the first in your neighborhood to run GMan BACKWARDS! We'll be running the "old" course CCW. NASA will be the first sanctioning body to race this configuration! Who's in for this unique experience?

    UPDATE from NASA: we will not be running backwards as the track needs more time to make the changes we believe are needed for safety. It'll still be fun running the track CW with the extension!

      Never been out to Gingerman despite being from GR, definitely interested in coming out to check out the track and watch for the day. Any idea how many E30's will be there?

        Field is alittle thin due to accidents and motor problems in the last event. One definitely, 2 possibly. If you are in GR, you have no excuse but to come down and hang out! I'll be there providing hospitality, so come by for some grilling at lunch, and a beer after the track goes cold!

          I'm definitely going to have to take you up on that, hopefully bringing down another E30 guy with me.

            Alright, the E30 buddy I mentioned earlier wants to know what the reg's are for running this? Is it just a HPDE or full out race day?

              Awesome. NASA events run HPDE, TT, and W2W racing all in one weekend. If you want to sign up for HPDE, go here: http://www.nasaproracing.com/event/1360 I can get you a free membership ($40 value I think). You just need to get a business card from me.

              Feel free to contact me offline at kburkhardt12 at comcast dot net if you have any further questions or want to discuss all things car related.

                  Does your buddy have a comp license and racecar, or is he just looking for HPDE?

                    HPDE. I think he mainly just wants to get on a track, no special liscenses or racecar.

                              Thanks, good to meet you guys too. Had a great time, met a bunch of cool people, and saw some sweet cars. Even got to see the Miata roll right in front of us!

                              I will try and get some of the pics Austin took and post them up here.
