Who would be interested in doing an actual race at the convention track day? The car would have to have a long book from a know sanctioning body and the driver must be a licensed racer or at the least carry a novice permit. Of course the car and driver must have all the safety equipment also need.
The problem being to get an actual racer group we must come up with 20 or so racers to make a complete group or it would not be worth the time it would take up during the day.
This would be a good incentive for those that are building to finish the damn things and be involved in the first ever SE-R Convention Race.
Speak up let me hear your input. I'd love to make this happen but we need the car count.

I'd like to watch, but I'd rather participate. I wonder if I can catch 20 NASA events between now and then and get a Novice permit? I wonder if I can have the B12 back together and install a fire system by then?

OK, maybe I'll just watch.

Why would you have to catch 20 events? Just as long as the car has an annual and you have a novice /rookie permit you are golden.

I've been reading up on NASA in FL. IIRC, they require 20 total HPDE events under your belt to move up through HPDE 4 and apply for a license, unless you have experience with another organization (which I don't) I could have read it wrong. I'll take another look at it. At this point though, it would take an act of God to get the b12 back up and running in time. It's not even a rolling chassis at this point and there is alot of fabrication left to do.
Sounds cool and all, but your seriously gonna take time away from those that (have paid) and want to go out and just have fun on the track. Plus, your gonna be hard pressed to get 20 licensed drivers out there
Just my two cents....although a time attack would be bad ass....
Time attack / time trial is what would be bad and take time away from EVERYONE. If we could get enough racecars to fill a group, it'd take no time away from anyone else. It'd be like another group out on the track. So, instead of having 2 beginner, 1 intermediate, and 1 advanced we have 1 beginner, 1 intermediate, 1 advanced, and 1 race group. Same amount of track time for everyone with a cool SE-R race to watch

Instead of a formal "time attack" why don't we get a few people to time the laps of every driver on track (or those who want to be timed). Have awards or what not for those with the fastest lap. Kinda like the old F1 qualifying format.
