Friday 29th, road course Gingerman Raceway, via CGI!

For those looking to drive their cars fast in a safe and controlled environment with turns, look no further! Here's the registration links for the CGI Motorsports track day at Gingerman Raceway in MI:

If you have any questions on which group you think you should register for, feel free to shoot me a PM. I honestly recommend an instructor for anyone who questions whether of not they need one, has not tracked in awhile, or has not been to this track. There are class room sessions for the Novice group, which I recommend on everyone attending, unless you're a seasoned veteran of racing. Don't sign up for the "advance group" to be cool Mr hot shot, they'll knock you down at the track to a lower group.

The pricing is $245 for Novice, and $195 for Intermediate and Advance. The extra $50 covers the instructors.

For "Novice Group" Those with little to null tracking experience, or haven't tracked in years, an instructor is required! Register via this link: August 29

For "Intermediate Group" Those with plenty of seat time, not necessarily at Gingerman; or a decent amount tracking, and familiar with Gingerman. Register via this link: August 29(Intermediate)

For "Advance Group" Those with lots of experience tracking, possibly some competitive forms of racing, or a vast knowledge of Gingerman. Register via this link: August 29(Advanced)




Anyone else, please tag members of your nator chapters.








I am gonna need some help with planning some events and food. Looks like the hotel is reserved, as well as the track. I have links posted for track registration ASAP.

I'm in. I can help; let me know what you need and we can pull stuff together.

[LynzeC]

I had an idea of maybe hosting a NATOR Tot event on the side at my house.

I would plan to keep them over night and do a go kart night, BBQ, movies, something like that.

If you'd be interested, let me know. If it doesn't happen, no biggy, just an idea.

The Midwest vibe is awesome if you can get there do, twisty track is fun. Last year the CEO of SRT was there with his Viper. It is an event you should not miss!

But really I'm totes in. I got class Thurs and Fri but I'm on the road once it's over. WHO IN terMINATOR IS WILLING TO PROVIDE A PLACE FOR ME AND MY HOMIE POST UP OUR BLACK ASSES FOR THE NIGHT(S)?

BTW @HawkeyeGeoff and @speed3 britz (and @mole???) consider Gingerman part of our triathlon. Go karts is for brownie points, possibly even real brownies @Funkster777??

[punkk77]

This is awesome. Summer class will be over and fall semester starts the week after this. Gotta convince my wife I need to go to this. Maybe ill ask her when shes asleep. Or just before I get her off. Hmmm, those could both happen at the same time.

I should be able to swing an overnighter for saturday. Lookin forward to this!!

[maisonvi]

If you guys are coming, book soon. This is a beach town and apparently someone decided to choose a holiday weekend. This place (south haven) will be packed. That said, it will still be a good time at the track.

[mzr0818]

I wish I had a car to track but it looks like a drinking fest only this year.

I WILL BRING THE COFFEE...
