Hi all,

 

I'm new to the forum (and to SM racing in general).  I'm interested in checking out a SM event in the near future so that I can see what it is like and all about.  I'm considering getting involved as a racer but want to watch first hand before I get too far.

 

Any advice about upcoming events in the Connecticut area over the next couple months would be welcome.  

 

Thanks!

Great--thank you.  I will try to catch you guys up at Lime Rock.  

 

I live in the Ridgeway neighborhood and work a few blocks north of downtown (my commute is 6 blocks).  What about you?

the force is strong with Spec Miata. Once in its presence you will be unable to resist

The drivers are friendly, the racing is close, the cars are awesome, dependable and inexpensive to maintain.

I rented one weekend, and after the first session on test day I was hooked and have never looked back

Come join us on the dark side, the most intoxicating fun you have have with your clothes on!

Lol you are not kidding this sport is like being on drugs.

 

All I do after and before work is read, read, watch videos, read, race, and read squiggly lines on my laptop reviewing data.....

I live up on Long Ridge 5 minutes North of the parkway. 

Just look for my Motor home and White enclosed Trailer with a plumber figure running.

Haha--Sounds great.  I've got a long way to go to get there, though.  I have no training, licensing, or equipment, so I'm basically starting at zero!
