Default Lindsay Cadillac "V" Track Day

The first annual Lindsay Cadillac "V-Day" track day is scheduled for May 9, 2008 at Summit Point Raceway in Summit Point, West Virginia on the Summit Point Circuit. I need a 50 particapants for this to happen. The $250.00 registration fee gets you six, 20-minute track sessions, an experienced instructor if you are new to tracking your car and a nice catered lunch.

CTS-V owner and certified track buff Mark Pfeffer of MVP Track Time (www.MVPTrackTime.com), is running this event for Lindsay Cadillac (www.LindsayCadillac.com). Mark has arranged a discounted hotel room rates ($89.00) at the Hampton Inn in Winchester, VA about 15-20 minutes from Summit Point. This is a private event, in other words there will be no other club or group sharing the track on that day so I hope to have the first ever all (well 90% anyway) "V" track day!!

Call me at (703) 824-9670 to register or with any questions. You can also contact Mark Pfeffer of MVP Track Time directly at (314) 249-3770. I know it seems like May is quite a while away, but I have had a lot of interest in this event both on and off of the forum so make sure to sign up early.

A502:

As much as we'd love to see you guys racing for times, due to liability insurance issues, our high performance driving events (HPDE) are NOT time events. You can still pass though and harass fellow track day junkies with a antagonizing waive as you cruise by.

Happy Motoring!

I'm sure a few laps at Summit Point would put the mom-to-be into labor! Just joking. Congratulations.

CTS-V people should jump all over this. It was great time when I was there in my GTO. There was a CTS-V the lasttime I was there. I have some video of me and the caddy somewhere nice sounds going down the straight. Sure could have used the brembo brakes later in the day. Can I put a cts-v badge on join in? ha ha

Hey Feff, I have a buddy with a Viper that I've been trying to drag out to the road course forever. I usually go to VIR, and they require a Viper to have an aftermarket roll bar. He's been balking at this because he's not sure he'd be into it, and doesn't want to spend 2k and cut up his car just to see. Does summit have this prohibition, like VIR?

If not, I'd love to get him out with us.

Chris:

If the Viper is a convertible, it will need a roll bar that passes the "broomstick test". Basically a broomstick is set atop the roll bar and the front windshield. The driver's helemted head must pass beneath the broomstick without touching.

Purely a safety issue for convertible drivers.

His apsses the broomstick test, with the stock roll-loops. VIR requires an actual aftermarket bar, for pretty much everything except Boxters (I think). If he passes the broomstick, he's OK for Summit then?
