Science Abuse Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Link? Register: https://www.nasaproracing.com/event/1058 Should note that you need a membership to do the Hyperdrive, which is around $40. HyperDrive - HyperDrive is designed for the the person looking to try out Track Driving without having to commit to the entire weekend. This is great for Crew, Friends, Spouses or anyone else wanting to get on track for a session. HyperDrive includes complete classroom with HPDE1/2, and HPDE Passport, In-Car instruction and a single on-track session of 20-30 minutes. Compare to NTR: If you have a 12 sec car, that the same amount of track time as 100-150 passes. If you some how manage 10 passes at a test'n'tune (usually closer to 5), it will take you 10 to 15 events to match that amount of track time... which is $150-$225 in entry fees. On the other hand, you will spend a hundred hours waiting in the staging lanes, which we all love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyM3rC Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 $59 for the one-session "Hyper Drive". That's damn affordable, I'd be all about it if I had a suitable car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 That's damn affordable, I'd be all about it if I had a suitable car. If it passes tech, it's suitable. I knew a guy who tracked a Saturn because his toy car broke the week before. There is no car on earth in which this would not be fun. And don't worry about being embarasingly slow, either... if this is your first outing, you'll be embarasingly slow no matter what you drive. Best to drive 3 minute laps in a Fiesta rather than a Vette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutting out under boost isn't going to work I wish I could get the bikes on-track for $59! I'd be there once a week!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Apex Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 ^Do you mean 40 degrees and raining like last year on the friday?? That sucked ass. BTW, I'm headed to VIR in October if anyone is interested in going, I've talked to a few people on here that might be going with and it would be great to have a few friends to go down there with.

Cool, you can be the one to issue the log book to the V6 RX7. Don't worry about the little red button on the gear shift or the steel braided line running from the roll cage, it's legal I plan on being there all three days. Comp school on Friday and racing Saturday and Sunday. Ben, you should come to Putnam Park with us. Fun track and same great people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get your logbook back with Roth-type doodles on your car photo (or "Dart" written in it somewhere), you know it was me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are supposed to do a similar or exactly the same program this year. I'm waiting on an announcement on this year's deal so I can get a few chances for a free race and get some guys in for free.
