Hey NOVICES and wanna be novices

Sign up for the school now. Don't wait till the last minute. We have to make sure we have enough instructors. Currently that is not an issue, but I would like to make it more of one.

This site is much better than Laurinburg.

Novices: We want to have the first cars off by 9:45am. This means you have to be on site by no later than 8:30. We have to get you registered, your car teched, an instructor assigned, a course walk and go over the day's events. You should not need to change tires or make serious modifications. Before you get to hte site check the air pressure in your tires and make sure they are at a minimum at the recommended pressures for your car, check your battery to make sure it is tight. Make sure that all loose items are out of your car including glove box stuff, pens, mirror decorations, floor mats, stuff in trunk that is not bolted down.

Instructors - Please be on site and ready to go by 9am so we know you are here and can do course walks, student car tech, etc

Thanks
Rob

So I did the novice school last year and it was great. I ran several of the events but I still suck. Can I do the school again this year and maybe learn how to suck less?

I'm pretty sure that'd be fine to get some extra seat time. Glad to see you registered for this weekend! :thumbsup:

you really shouldn't stand on the "I told you so" business plan too much Rob. Karma is known to be a bitch...........

i would like for "The Kid" to get more seat time. but Danville stretches the purse strings too much at the moment.

i might bring the e36 to Sanford this summer. if she is ready for that clutch i might let her drive it.................

and it only has one seat..............
