[QUOTE="Sirl, post: 11324785, member: 61178"] NASA (National Auto Sport Association) is a national club that also is a "Race Club". Thet next step beyond HPDE for some people is TT or Time Trials. You are out on track with other similarly prepared cars, and you are strictly racing for time, not position. It is not Wheel to Wheel racing. The D is his class. ie: TTA, TTB, TTC, TTD, etc, etc. You can read more about it here: [url=http://www.nasa-tt.com/]NASA Time Trial[/url] This is the main reason you should keep your car stock for now. If you start modding, and later decide to do TT, the mods will quickly move you up in class, and not be competitive at all. Basically the boat that I am in. Although you can still get reclassified by hp/weight ratio, but thats another issue. As for the distance to the track, thats a tough one. Ed Z., he's on this forum as well, lives in NC, and has often drove his 97 Cobra down to Sebring for track weekends. Guessing 5-700 miles each way?? I dont have a car hauler either, here is my set up for when I travel beyond my local tracks: 4x8 trailer from Harbor Freight for tires, scooter, tool box etc. Works great! [ATTACH=full]264219[/ATTACH] But I'm lucky being in S. Florida, Homestead and PBIR are within 1 hour, Sebring, 2.5 hours, Daytona, 5 hours. Then again, you can also rent a p/u truck and trailer as well. What ever fits your budget. Oh, and my car has 98,000 miles on it, and I drive it hard! Your car, with under 20k miles... I'd have no problem driving 300+ miles to an event, flog it, and drive it home. You should be fine. [/QUOTE]
