    PCA track event 9/9/06 Cabaniss NALF Corpus Christi

    Guys I hope you don’t mind me posting here but, I run some HPDE's with NASA & I thought you might be interested in this event.

    Costal Bend Region PCA has regained access to NALF Corpus Christi. We will host a track event September 9th & we would love for you AICMC guys to join us for a fun track day.

    Entry fee for the event is 50.00. We will run the 3.5 mile track. Registration on site starts at 7:30am drivers meeting is at 8:30am on track by 9:00am. Set up will start at 7:00am it’s been 4 years since the last event so we need all the help we can get.

    Please print out your registration form & get it into Kathy Schafer ASAP along with a list of all you guests & crew. Everyone must be on the list to gain entry onto NALF Cabaniss & must present valid ID.

    BTW here is some track video from our last event there in 2002 & a track map. http://forums.rgvpca.org/videos/caba...roadcourse.wmv

    Just as I thought to myself, "How would someone go off on that coarse." The black Porshce goes straight off the track. :?

    Looks pretty fun and very cheap.

    What was your takeaway?

    LOL, must have finally found a Base Commander who realized there were no national security risks at Cabaniss. Old rusting hangars and school buses do not a military installation make.

    I guess so... several us were planning on doing an event prior to 9/11 and just never got our plans together.

    I still like the price.

    Yup you are correct the new base commander is great & he realized this is a great underutilized asset that will benefit the local community.

    The black 944 Turbo lost his brakes in the braking zone after the 130+mph sweeper. (He thought he would try the cheap AutoZone pads that came with the car when he bought it. He melted them into the holes in his cross drilled rotors)

    Each run group gets 3 20 minute HPDE sessions. After that we set up for timing some time after lunch since we don’t have a AMD system we run 3-4 cars at a time for the time trial portion of the event. It’s a cheap test & tune session for the wheel to wheel guys.

    so, just how far is corpus from Dallas?! Looks like a ton of drag racing on that big bastard! Pricing is perfect and we could even have 'winged' vehicles running around! :lol:

    455 miles from 75 & Plano parkway to the front gate at Cabaniss.

    Yes we will have a few open wheel winged cars at the event including a few Pro Mazda cars.
