Does anyone know the class/run group information for the auto-x @ Stead over the 26th-27th? I'm running street modified, but I can't find info on what order groups are in on the Reno SCCA webpage.

Ask DKNV in the SCCA thread. (http://www.doink.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=59) She's on top of SCCA stuff (since she helps run the show!)

2 news releases from NASA regarding Reno-Fernley racetrack. Only bad thing - date conflicts with SCCA autocross..... how can I do both?

Richmond, CA. Registration for the first of two Nor Cal events scheduled for Reno-Fernley Raceway is now available by going to http://www.nasaproracing.com. Login, then go to https://www.nasaproracing.com/register.html to register.

All regular NASA racing groups and HPDE will be running. HPDE fees have been lowered as an introductory offer! Space of course, will be limited in the HPDE groups. There is a seven-day advance notice required for refund. “Potential HPDE participants should sign up now, before it fills up, because they can always cancel out and get a refund as per previously stated,” said Regional Director, Jerry Kunzman

Northern Nevada (Nor Nev) Regional Director, Brian Hunt commented, “I am really glad that we finally got the track finished; and now we can kick things off right by hosting a joint event with Nor Cal. This is a really exciting time, and I am looking forward to working together with all the Nor Cal Officials!”

The track is current 1.5-miles in length, and has benefited from positive reviews from those that have been invited to try it. The track is not yet holding official events, and only a few groups of people have been invited to try it. It is not yet open to the public. NASA members should NOT contact the track for information.
