Nice, has the club ever done Pocono? When I was there working DE events for porche I'd watch the guys run on the back half of the oval and the infield with some bike club, too long ago to remember........ looked fun

They used to, back in the day. Back half of the oval over the tunnel, small (~1.3 mile) course - if so that would be the east course. Since NJMP opened, all the orgs stopped going to Pocono. A couple of them have started again because Pocono did some upgrades and repaving, fixing/expanding the east course. Once a year they'd get to run the big FUSA course.
Me personally? I'll never go back to Pocono. With NJMP around, there's no need. NJMP is a much better course with better run-off.

good to know, yea the wall would make me nervous, yea thats the east course that i saw....
Welcome. I'm from Lancaster and Summit might be a little farther but it is a great track for your first time (all tracks are awesome your first time). Its about a wash for me to either because there is no easy way to get to NJMP from Lancaster so you are back roads 75% of the way where Summit is less of an effort with trailer in tow because its 75% highway.
Either way, welcome. If you need anything let us know.

Thanks for the welcome and hope to see everyone out there, not sure if I'm gona start at summit or njmp this spring, let me know if you do any rides in the area. I do a few rides a year usually to Wildwood

With nesba? On this site? Go and cancel it and get the money refunded to your credit card. Not credits in the system. Nesba is in flux right now. See this thread: http://tracktalk.nesba.com/showthread.php?t=33263
Read through other parts of the site to see what's going on. Rob and crew have tried to link the above thread in as many places as they saw fit. They are working very hard to change over ownership to their new organization. In my opinion, Bob B. should have shut down the registration page.

I PM'ed Ken and got his number. I called and talked to him. He just signed up so he has some time to dispute the charge if things don't work out for that weekend. He has been involved with other track day clubs (cars) and this isn't a situation he is unfamilliar with. He is going to hold out with the rest of us and hope Rob can work things out. If JC is not in the schedule once this all comes out, then he can then go through the process of getting his money back. Good guy and I hope we get to share the paddock soon.

Do you think you can make the NJMP date May 12? Thunderbolt is a fun track and even though it is a bigger track than JC its a great track to do your first day. The track is big so the riders get spread out and it is also on a Monday so the crowd is usually different than what you find on a weekend. I'm making plans to be there.
If you cannot pull off a Monday the next weekend is also at NJMP but on the Lightning track. Lightning is one of my favorite. It is a very fast track and has a little of everything.
Let me know if you can do either of these weekends. Can't wait to roll a wheel this season.

I'll have to see if i can swing it, I was just pushing for tracks down at Summit first because i know them, but if you think its better to be at NJMP over Summit I'll try for that date
