This is cross posted from NER.org. I am NOT the POC for this event, but I know that many on this site have participated in this event in the past. Matt Bal http://www.ner.org/forums/index.php/topic,712.0.html For many years folks took a break from Road Racing, Rally, Solo, and Course Working...

as seen on WTNH............The story should be online soon wtnh.com The TV doesnt add 10 lbs, I think it adds 10 YEARS And is that really how you pronounce your last name? AIMME? Thanks for fighting the good fight. Matt Bal

OK, I don’t know if there is a “quick” answer or even a “right” answer for this, Or, if I am going to open a HUGE can of worms. My job will soon be requiring me to obtain a CDL, and I was thinking that if I have a CDL I now MUST stop at these DOT Inspections when towing the race car?(as a...

I have a friend that is about to purchase a pair of group N rally cars (Ford Cosworth 2.0T, AWD) and wanted to try and race with SCCA. I assume that it would have to race in either SPU or SPO, (Maybe ITE? but its a turbo W/AWD)but I have not been able to locate ANY rules to point him towards...

I was looking to see if any one knows what the test days cost this year? I didn’t see it on NER or NHIS site. I am looking to go this Thursday, 11 May (cars in the AM session only) I know that the track entry fee doubled, but I really hope that the test days didn’t. Thanks Matt Bal

So do to some last minute work conflicts I had a change of schedule and had to miss the last 3 events of the year that I was planning on running, one of them was an enduro, so I now have more good(new) tires left at the end of the season than I was planning to have!!!!! (We should all be so...

I am in the process of trying to provide my significant other with a best “guesstimate” of my expenses for a season of racing. And although I know the money goes out I can’t seem to be able to break it down into line items, and put it in a spreadsheet. I know that some purchases are one-time...

I was looking to see how early on Thursday I could get into the track? I have the day off, and figured if I can get an early start on unloading and setting up it wouldn’t hurt. Not to mention it will be my first time towing the new trailer, so in an act of selfishness I DON’T want to have to...

So this weekend we will be trying out our new tow rig set up and it just occurred to us that it might not fit over the bridge at Limerock. I don’t know what the limits of the bridge are? Is it the approach and turn? Weight/Width? It is a Ford F250 (2dr NOT an extra cab) W/8ft bed that will be...

I am looking to see if any New England racers feel the need to use one of those forced air-cooling helmets? If so does it helps to keep the entire body cool? Or just keep your face cool? And if a cooling shirt would be a better investment. I would guess that the “Cool Shirt” might do a better...

http://www.wfsb.com/Global/story.asp?S=274...26&nav=1VGlUf7g I found this story while surfing today and just wanted to pass it along, I would think this is a positive thing for us? Could it open opportunities to SCCA down the road? Matt Bal

I am looking for the POC to get my Regional Competition License renewed for the spring of 2005 I have not competed since September 2003. I still have an SCCA membership, just no recent seat time. Do I have to go back to a school? (I know it couldn’t hurt!!) No changes in medical status, just...

Does anyone have any experience towing with the VW Touareg?? I have seen online that the V6 model is rated @ 7,700 towing capacity. Which should be plenty for my set up!!! But wanted to know about real world experience towing a racecar with one. Even for a diehard VW fan this sounds too good...

So other than Steve Ostrovitz blowing a transmission, and having to sleep with it!!! (Steve how many transmissions have you killed??) How did the weekend go?? Looking for ITB results specifically!!!! Thanks Matt Bal
