sd550hp Posted August 10, 2015 Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Since joining Team Shelby this year, I have been to the 2015 Vegas Bash and just got back from the Mini-Nats at Sonoma. I went to play on the track and had a blast. I'm very much the rookie, but while I don't pass everyone, everyone doesn't pass me. Oh, yeah, it's not about "passing". I have looked over the calendar for more events and not that much there. While at Sonoma and talking with other drivers, they all know of different events. I am wondering what other events Team Shelby members normally attend. I will find a car club here in Arizona so I can get some time at one of our tracks, but I really like going to events that this club attends and with a strong Shelby showing. So any events that a rookie should know about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Patten Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Since you're on the west coast - the Monterey Reunion next weekend will be one to attend - feature marque is the GT350 and there will be lots of things to see that are all Shelby. After that, I'd highly recommend the NORCAL SAAC open track event @ Laguna Seca Raceway in Monterey, California on the day (Friday) after Thanksgiving also known as "Turkey Bowl". This year will sell out for sure since it's going to allow a 105db sound limit from what I hear. The raceway is one of the best in the world and has lots of history yet it's future is now being questioned as to what is going to happen to the property.

sd550hp Posted August 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Next weekend is too soon for a turn around but the Turkey Bowel sounds just right. Is that an annual event? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could turn into a pretty crappy event...... sorry I couldn't resist.... they don't call me a Dick for no reason.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMcGuirk Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Next weekend is too soon for a turn around but the Turkey Bowel sounds just right. Is that an annual event?

It has been in the past but who knows about the future - it is definitely worth going to even coming from out of state and the weather has always been ideal.

sd550hp Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 The Turkey BOWL will be on the list. I was checking the NORCAL SAAC website for more information. Looks like my last track day finished off the Goodyear's. So some new skins are in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So any events that a rookie should know about? Shoot me a PM with your contact info. Putting an event together @ Arizona Motorsport Park (Litchfield Park, AZ) in Mid-Nov and I can get you a discount. They do have a 94db limit, so if you have aftermarket exhaust, it may be an issue. Other than that, it's a fantastic track in great condition. All skill levels welcome.

Sign up early because this one day event will fill up fast due to the unusual acceptance of a 105db sound level. I just signed up in Blue group.
