I'll definitely be competing in many of these races this year. However, I still need to get a new set of rims and tires to race on!

All of the events are held in Englishtown at Raceway Park. Refer to this website:

They posted that the March 10 day has been canceled and the March 31 date is Weather Permitting.

How to get started


>>> Register an account

>>> Subscribe to MotorsportsNE in the club dropdown menu. (doesn't mean you're paying or anything)


>>> Go to my garage and add your car, pick a #, and just pick a class. You will be added to class when you get there anyways. Leave PAX blank


>>> Go to events calendar and register for the APRIL 1ST EVENT


*****************IF YOU DO NOT SEE THE APRIL EVENTS, GO TO "MONTH" AND CHECK APRIL. THIS WILL TAKE YOU TO THE APRIL EVENTS. YOU MAY STILL BE IN MARCH*****************





When to be there?


The site opens at 7 AM. Registration starts at 7:30 and closes at 9:15.


If you are a newb, I recommend getting there at around 7:30 and walk the course a few times.

If you show up at around 8, you're fine too. Just be there BEFORE 9 AM!


It usually lasts till around 4PM - 5PM, but well worth it.


I will be there at around 7 am in my black Boxster. I will bring an air compressor, tire gauge (& food for myself)




IF YOU ARE A FIRST TIMER, HERE'S SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD BRING/DO:

- TAKE ALL LOOSE **** OUT OF YOUR CAR. This will help you to not get distracted when running. For the items you wish to bring, put them in a bag (not a plastic bag) and just leave them at the lot. Everybody leaves their things there, so don't worry about it.

- Raise your tire pressure to max. performance settings

- Blue tape so you can put your # on your car. (if you don't, they use some gunky marker stuff to write your #s)

- HELMET. Motorcycle helmets should be fine. If you don't have one, they have loaners. They don't really check your helmets, but it does have to LOOK legit. A bike helmet won't cut it (bicycle)


- Bring food and beverages. It's a long day. You will get hungry.




I recommend you try to get a friend to go w/ you. It will help you pass the time when waiting and it will be a nice competition to see who scores higher :)



Any car can do it. Yesterday there was everything from a Ford Escort GT to a Caterham S7 (cool guy)




If not, come bother me. I'm pretty friendly.


Everyone is really nice and will help you out. Don't be afraid to go and talk to people and make friends. These people are very social and love cars :)




SO REGISTER NOW AND RESERVE A SPOT!!!!

^^ do you know if they will let you race/compete if you have a broken wheel stud?

I have raced before with a broken wheel stud, but I don't think they inspected my car very closely. It depends, if they catch it, they probably won't let you race.

Marc, I really want to race, but I gotta get a new set of summer tires first! Right now I'm riding on my Blizzaks...

[AfternoonShift]
