O darn looks like i'm gonna miss this. Car won't be ready by then.

Is it scca classing or something else? I dont think i can compete with powerful cars on such a long flat out track. And $150.

Its a Single Lap Against the Timer so car classing doesn't really matter. No SCCA categories just down to the timers.

Yeap $150 is pretty darn cheap for track events considering most of them are $250+

Can't wait!

This event is great for autocrossers looking to stretch their legs. PTUNING will be bringing their shop FRS to make some shakedown runs!

Their are so many long, steady state corners. Last event, a decently set up Miata (normally aspirated ) beat the boosted v8's

PTUNING team and friends participated in GripFest6 this past Sunday. The weather was perfect and the field of participants was a nice mixed of cars. Justin's PTUNING turbo xA took home 2nd fastest time of the event!

Here's a few runs of the PTUNING Turbo FR-S @ Gripfest 6 North Carolina Center for Automotive Research, NCCAR Inc. on 5-11-2014. We were able to dial-in more rear traction by disconnecting the rear swaybar and shave 4+ seconds off our morning session lap times. Lots of spinout. Enjoy. Thanks @kanundrum for putting together the video!
