In order to maximize the SCDA experience at NHIS, we are
capping run groups at 22 cars. This is in the interest of
providing maximum track time, with a minimum of traffic. As
always, the SCDA will provide SCCA Flaggers to work the event
-- this is so that you can focus on your own driving, and not
worry about working corner stations. Furthermore, the
Checkered Flag Restaurant will be open and serving food
throughout the day. Finally,
www.tracktimephotos.com will be at the track, providing
digital photography for your car. Lastly, the schedule for the
NHIS event April 24 can be viewed here.
A limited number of garage bays will be available at NHIS.
Garage bay stickers will be available at SCDA Registration.
Garage bays are first come first served, two cars per bay.
Garage bay stickers are $25 per car. We hope that you are able
to join us at NHIS on Monday April 24th!
Finally, we would like to remind customers that we will be
returning to Watkins Glen May 1 and May 2. This is our only
event of the year at Watkins Glen and should not be missed.
The track is 3.5 miles in length and is one of the most
exciting and historic tracks in North America. We would
suggest customers visit
www.thefallsmotel.com for lodging. This event has always
proven to be an enjoyable outing, and we expect the same May 1
and May 2! |
