As many of you know Miriam Schottland has been organizing a day at the track for veterans. Unfortunately she is not able to continue this. The SCCA has agreed to continue this event this year. The most critical part of this is to find veterans wanting to participate.
This is where you come in. We need your help in finding the veterans. The date is Nov 11 Veterans Day on the Jefferson Circuit (schedule to come) We have a 30 slots to fill. Free to the veterans, all they bring is their car and their time. Registration will be through Motorsportsreg opening soon Thank you for your help Mark Hillyer |

I would be interested in a driving slot. I have helped out in previous years and have never driven Jefferson so why not a free track day? Also, I froze my NxTs off last year. And yes, I am a Vet.
