Catering to every skill level, from novice to pro, NARRA allows participants to rise through its own ranks, from the US Performance Driver Education program to the Whelen US TimeTrial and US GT championships. Many NARRA events also feature the SRT Viper Cup Series presented by Pennzoil Ultra. NARRA specializes in developing, sanctioning and operating racing series for car clubs and manufacturers. The competition at a NARRA event is only matched by the camaraderie. Weekends are extremely social, with Friday night welcoming parties and Saturday banquets. The USPDE is a highly regarded driving school, as perfect for race track first-timers as it is for experienced track-day drivers. Classroom sessions teach informative curriculum, while instructors experienced with high-horsepower cars guide students around the track from the passenger seat. Many instructors are current or former semi-pro and pro racers. Bridging the gap between driver-ed and wheel-to-wheel racing, the Whelen USTTC offers drivers a national time-trial championship with contingencies, trophies and exposure equal to any racing series. The series attracts top tuning houses and time-attack teams from across the country because of its high-level competition, and no-holds-barred unlimited class. Fielding as many as 47 cars in 2011, the USGTC is rapidly becoming the largest high performance GT racing series in the USA. Amateur and semi-pro drivers race against the might of professional drivers and factory teams for glory, contingencies and exposure. Cars are placed in to four classes based on power-to-weight ratio, including an unlimited class allowing the country's fastest cars to compete. Visit www.NARRAonline.com.

[Richie7]

I dont think I can make that one, have fun it should be awesome!

 

[SlateEd]

I'm going to try to make it - at least for Saturday I think. Sorry we'll miss you Rich - hope to catch you and that ACR before winter!

Steve - save one ride-along for Courtney!

 

[ACR steve]

I will be up there running on Saturday and at the banquet Sat. night. Then I am heading back for kids football games on Sunday. It will be an amazing event. This is NARRA's last event of year and will decide many championships. The DE portion of the event will be great. Lots of instructors and the track was made for our Vipers. This is one of the greatest tracks in the USA (all sports car classes ,Indy Car, NASCAR currently run here and former US F1 track)

Ed- No ride ever needs to be saved for Courtney she has an open VIP invitation

 

[XXX BLK]

Steve, will see you sat

 

[ACR steve]

Pres, see you on the 20th

Ritchie- if there ever was a Viper track the Glen is it . Try and get that ACR up there

 

[ViperTony]

I will definitely be there on Saturday and maybe stay for Sunday.

 

[ACR steve]

Cool see you there Tony

 

[ACR steve]

anyone else going up? I may have a freeroom if you want it for Saturday night.

 

[SlateEd]

We will be at the Hampton Inn, just Friday night - leaving for Rochester right from the track Saturday.

 

[ACR steve]

Ed,cool use my truck at the event as a base during the day

 

[ViperTony]

I'm out, I'm triple booked this weekend.

 

[Recluse]

So whats the deal with this? I'm thouroghly confused. I signed up for NARRA a couple weeks ago and got my login information, etc. Then yesterday afternoon I stopped by the track to see if I could catch the last race of the day and I was turned away at the gate. Do you literally have to sign up for the PDE or one of the races to be allowed in?

 

[ACR steve]

If you told them you were there with NARA they should have let you in.


Ed and Courtney great to see you guys and I am glad I was able to give you guys some hot laps (P.S. Ed was your Mom surprised?)
If anyone ever gets the chance to drive theGlen I suggest you never miss it. If there was a track meant for the Viper it’sthe Glen. I have driven the Glen for 20 years in all kinds of race cars fromNASCAR to open wheel and everything in between. I can honestly say the most funand my fastest time ever on the track was Saturday in my stock Viper. What atrue testament to our cars. Thanks everyone at NARRA for a great weekend .

 

[SlateEd]

Thanks Steve! That was a blast... Courtney and I were trying to figure out how you make the car stick on the edge like that the whole drive up to Rochester haha.

And yeah mom walked into the restaurant and was totally shocked it worked out really well!
