CamaroFest VII: NCM ROAD COURSE Thursday

[Mr. Wyndham]

NCM ROAD COURSE SIGN UP THREAD
THURSDAY, July 13, 2017







Our intention is to run the Full 3.15 mile course but we will need 75 paid entries otherwise the West Course only (2.0 miles - still a lot of fun) will be used. At Fest 6 we had no problem meeting this goal - and we used the Full course.

The cost is $225 per driver: Thursday, 8:30a - 5:00p.

PRE-SALE ONLY...Buy your Entry Passes HERE!!: CamaroFest7.com
(If you are going to run AutoX or Drags on Fri/Sat during at Beech Bend, we have a $300 discounted package for everything.)

We will run 20-minute sessions, driver groups to be determined by our participation. The track is hot from 8:30a to 5:30p, and we run as MUCH as we can get in. Remember...if you go off the track, that slows down everyone else's time to run... This is NOT a race... It is NOT timed... There are NO trophies!!! STAY ON THE TRACK AND HAVE FUN!!!
