Reno Fernley Updates

[Dean]

Since I don't think everyone gets Rich's announcements, I figured I'd start a thread, and will edit/bump as necessary with the newest on top.

The second one down is very interesting. Please let Rich know if you are interested, and that any weeknd that doesn't conflict with the Reno Region SCCA calendar is great! The more he hears not to conflict the better IMHO. Feel Free to CC E.T. at et@GoneRacing.com

Subject: Rookie Program - for drivers without competition licenses

Announcing a new program for drivers who want to drive on the roadcourse but don't have competition licenses...

THE ROOKIE PROGRAM

The Rookie Program requires drivers to take a "mini-course" on high performance driving before we can let them out on the roadcourse.

Drivers who have attended and completed qualified driving school programs are exempt, subject to proof of course completion.

Rookies will be permitted to drive on the road course on any test & tune day with certain restrictions.

Rookies are not permitted to drive on the track at the same time as racers.

Rookies are not permitted to drive at 100% of their car's capacity.

Rookies must demonstrate care and safety while driving. Reckless driving, spins or dropping wheels off the pavement may result in loss of driving privileges until they attend a formal driving class.

Rookies' access to the track is subject to the track supervisor's discretion.

Cost: $150 (includes track rental fee)

We strongly encourage rookies to participate in The Next Level Driving School to further improve their skills and learn proper driving techniques.

Any questions, call "E.T." AT 775 575-7217 OR email et@reno-fernleyraceway.com.

Within a couple of weeks when the track is completed, the new length will be a bit over 2.4 miles. It will be 40 feet wide!! - 4 feet wider than either ThunderHill or Sears Point (Infineon).
