• Driver Development Program Watkins Glen April 19th

    DDP at Watkins Glen, Tuesday April 19, 2011


    More than just a race track, the Watkins Glen area is home to some really beautiful country.





    But we're here for the racing! Watkins Glen is considered the birthplace of postwar American sports car racing with events that originally ran through the middle of town and the local roads, even crossing a railroad track.

    Watch out for Turn 9 -- it's one of the trickiest in all of sim racing...

    And let's take a couple laps of the Glen courtesy of Leh Keen, who just devours the field at a Porsche race:

We will keep you informed about any changes.

      Will be out of town away from the big racing computer (S), April 14th till mid day 21st. Might be tight to get on track for the WG - GT event that day. Little practice to boot so might be good to stay away for another week and the LMC event. Will see how this pans out.

      Have fun everyone.

      Till we meet again,
