What are the restrictions? If you have a rollbar and harness, is it unlimited? The fastest I have gone to date is about 170mph (165 on a previous motocycle).
Is there a schedule for 2004 yet?
I would love to join the 200+ club. Would this be viable?
Watt,
that photo looks like a previous generation 911. What car is it?

ken,
that's a ruf 993 TT.
check out the sites and read the spec.s. rollbar, harness, racing seats, fire exting only good to 165 tech [max] speed. this is my current kit
touching 170 and sustaining 170 for 100 miles are rather different in skill, preparation, experience on the road, high speed seat time required, risk, etc.... check out the sites and search my threads and those of ruf racer at the other website,
we'd love to have you join us this summer!!!!!

Watt,
I took a brief look at the rules for www.openroadracing.com and it seems I would be limited to a maximum rating of GS1. Does that sound right? Having never competed before, would I build up to the GS1 class or simply enter it? Can you build up to it throughout multiple runs in the event or is it a one time run. Briefly describe how it would work upon my arrival.

most of them just peeled off with the latex, the grills needed more scrubbing
gs1 with a rooky 150 tech speed max first time. have to qualify with an instructor at your target average which i believe cant exceed 135? first time. friday practise about 6 hours over a 10 mile section... then the race is it. the skilled players have run the road multiple years increasing their speed every year. better even to start 140 tech, 120 average. need a navigator to go faster
