ITRCA

Chime in! Registered and paid for Expo here

Hey guys my name is Ian Crawford I am from Lexington, KY. I drive a 1995 BMW M3 and have been around the track for a long time. I have heard great things about this event from friends and better things about the people who setup and people who attend this event! I have to say I am greatly looking forward to it!

I registered to instruct for the Expo two days ago. I would like to email a few questions, if someone could please PM me information about who is head instructor and their e-mail if you guys wouldn't mind!

Ian,

I sent the organizers a message in regards to this. Someone should be in contact with you soon.

Thanks for the prompt response Dave! I do appreciate it.

Hi Ian,
I will email you today to the email address that you signed up with.

And there ya go.

paid and confirmed

Hello sirs,

Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Chris Adams (...hi chris), I am from Lexingtonm KY, and I have a problem: ITR envy. Ever since my roomate purchased an ITR I have been forced to look at it in the garage daily! My 2002 WRX just doesn't rev to 9,000 RPM (reliably that is).

I am looking forward to meeting everyone and encouraging, helping those who are less experienced on track. I am confident we can create a great learning environment for all the novices.

This looks like it will be a great event and thank you to all those involved in making an expo of this magnitude possible!

Thanks,
Chris

Hey, no problem, I am excited to participate!

Welcome to the site/expo Chris.

Thanks for instructing! :thumbup:

Checking in.

Registered/paid/confirmed

Awesome on all ends.

I think every instructor gets to know myself or Willard at the event, so say hi.

I will quit my job if I have to.....
2 day event at AutoBahn 45min from my house.....I may even give my pinky finger for that!

Some of you know me as NirVTEC/Dr. NirVTEC(I'm the President of The Chicagoland Prelude Club)
I race a 93 Prelude VTEC and have instructed for SpeedTrial USA as well as 3 Nat'l Prelude Meets.

My tentative plan is to drive down early Saturday morning, race during the day, go to the banquet at night, stay over Saturday night, race Sunday, drive home.....That whole 45min!

All I need is some brakes and to swap my trailer hitch, lower my car a bit more, and get it aligned!

Glad to see everyone chiming in, and some new faces

Will be fun to see you out there. I don't think I've bumped into you since Gingerman in 05. What happened to the NPM? I always wanted to go and almost attended the GIR and Hallett events, but my schedule did not cooperate. Is NPM done?

NPM fizzled after years of Political Issues.
East Coasters felt left out, West Coasters felt left out......IDK...
Someone tried to organize one last year and it was a joke.
I <3 Hallett
GIR is a little too peaceful for my liking. I like feeling like I am outdoors while on track, GIR is flat and full of concrete. Sure the 125mph Straight is nice, and so is a 180* sweeper thats banked 7*, but there is just NO runoff at all. Not a place for NEWER drivers in any way shape or form.
BeaveRun was great too.

Beaver is one of the best noob tracks evAr. Shame the management is so crappy lately.

NPM had me instructing Noobs there when I had exactly 1 track day/15 AutoX under my belt.
It was fun. Shame I had to drive my friends ~150whp Prelude SH on almost corded Hoosiers.
That was the time my car broke down on the way to the track on the side of the PA Turnpike.

:waves:
I will be in the slow 95 Civic (back) with NC tags.

How do I know if I am confirmed as an instructor? I was waiting to pay until I received confirmation.

Can someone please PM me instructions etc.? Thanks
