2013 Schedule in the works

[Woodcraft]

We are working to get this all finalized for 2013. Right now we have all of our Loudon dates up on the site and ready to go, as well as our December Homestead date. We are looking at a number of options for the events at NJMP, and we are trying to make our best evaluation of the readiness of the NYST for faster riders before making the full commitment to a date. NYST is going to be a nice place, but understandably it is going to take a while before they have the infastructure (like garages and large capacity classrooms) or all the safety considerations (a separate pit in/pit out road to ensure rider safety while exiting and entering the track). I know that they are going to do a bunch more clearing of runoff areas, but since Penguin has a wide variety of riders (ranging from new to the racetrack to expert racers), we need to be sure that the areas are adequate for this entire range. I think that the layout has a ton of potential, but we want the place to be ready when we arrive. We are also considering an event at Barber again (two different dates) as well.

I welcome any feedback regarding any of this information. Please feel free to post here or email us at info@penguinracing.com

Holiday Stuff
We have our season packages available for next year (both for our school events and for our racer practices), and can get Penguin Gift Certificates out in plenty of time for Christmas. I hope everyone has a great holiday season.

I'd def be up for a date at Barber if you do one count me in

That place in on my wish list.

i got a bit confused from the website unfortunately, maybe the fact that I am sick has something to do with it.
But what is the best package for someone who will be racing for the first time and planning on doing all 7 NHMS weekends? I know I have to do penguin to get licensed but that would be my first weekend.

[THE STUFF 187]

same here Barber is on the bucket list, but sounds like not for to long. Ive heard nothing but great things about the track & the museum. Should be a great time. Hope they penguin does a day or two. Everyone i've talked to really wants to do Barber as well. As soon as the dates are up im booking it, no doubt

You won't be able to sign up for any lrrs event through penguin, only the Friday practices. Haven't checked the site, but usually they have a discounted package for buying the Fridays in advance...not sure how this will work with your first weekend being the penguin basic program.

I could be wrong, so someone else may be able to correct me. But if you plan on doing every weekend and need the penguin school to get your licence, your best bet is to get the racer practice. Then upgrade your first weekend to the penguin basic school.

If I were going to all of the events, this woudl definitely be the way to go. The link to the practice season pass is below. As Brendin says, you can upgrade the practice to a school anytime....we try to be easy!

Duly noted about Barber, we are working on it. I love that place....probably my #1 favorite track right now.

[Pittenger5]

Come to COTA.

[boloson]

Are the nj dates strictly t-bolt or lightning? Would there be a 2 day event to do both tracks?

[Woodcraft]

Any of the dates that we schedule at NJMP will be at the Thunderbolt Course. I'm not a real fan of the amenities (or lack thereof) at Lightning and I also feel that there are a couple potential safety concerns there. I should know more about NJMP shortly.

Ok just curious since I've never done lightning and would like to give it a try

[Woodcraft]

I know that some guys enjoy the track for sure. The only down sides for PRS is that Lightning does not have any garages or shelter....and there are a couple spots that you do not want to crash.

and there are a couple spots that you do not want to crash.
