Kippis,

You asked if there are other options for racing in the southeast? The answer is yes. You mentioned NASA GT3 but you forgot PBOC out of FL. They race at RA, VIR, Barber, Sebring, Daytona, Homestead.

Additionally, I didn't see anyone mention PCA with races at Sebring, Daytona, RA, Barber, and VIR. How many races are you looking to run each year? From ATL you could hit mid-ohio and COTA as well.

I have raced with both groups since 2002 with a boxster 3.6L in GT3R (PCA) and R3 (PBOC). My car was very competitive in both series.

It's for sale in the "for sale" section of this forum...not to hijack this thread from OP.

For SCCA your other options would be E production or STU. I might move to one of those classes after a couple of years.

Thanks for the info. I had no idea there was a PBOC around here. I will check that out. I don't like to travel much (do that enough for work) so if I could find a prep level that works for SCCA / PCA / PBOC I could just stay at Barber, RA, and Roebling.

I have been drooling over your car but too much $ for the potential of rolling up into a ball.

If the asking price is too high I can lower it to 45k and then just make sure you don't wad it up. I've raced it since 2002 without rolling it up. You can too.

Thanks Brad. Very excited to get it out and see how it does. First race is at Lowes in August. Can you PM me a good starting point for the alignment? I am at that point. Thanks
