I'm planning on being at this event, though I'll be there in a different car with other duties. I'm hoping to be able to bring the FR-S out as well though. I've got my eye on another track record..

Granted I haven't run with them for years, but their safety standards in the SE/NOVA/etc regions were horrific before (ie, I've seen them pass batteries held in the cabin with VELCRO, harness mounts with 3/8" washer "backing plates", etc). I'm sure (or at least really hope) that's no longer the case, although every year when I run tech for my own event I get "NASA allows this." and it's always something safety related. I also don't agree with their focus on racing over DEs. Stick to racing then, simple as that. I race with groups that only do racing, and do DEs with groups that only do DEs. Same reason I don't bother with PBOC, etc.
All the TT guys love NASA of course. Honda guys used to also until all the BS on the national level, then many started to hate them.
I won't give them a chance when there are plenty of other good groups available.
