The garages at NCM are now complete and available for rent - contact the track about that. There is electric in the garages. If you want an RV spot, you should also reserve that with the track - they are limited! Gates open approx 5:00pm Friday night and stay open 24/7 after that. Note that no trailers or equipment are allowed to leave the premises after 10pm (you can leave in your car). NCM is in the Central Time Zone. No gate fee at NCM!!! We ride R*** or shine, please come prepared for Southern rain showers. If you need camping or electric, you need to reserve that with the track. There is currently VERY limited power at NCM, so plan on bringing a generator. Tire service will be open Friday night 7:00pm-9:00pm to help you out. Then 7am to 7pm Sat and 7am-3pm Sun. We can now remove and replace your wheels for you if you do not want to get greasy. As usual, we will have our awesome prices on all the Michelin tires. Huey from Marietta Motorsports will on site for all suspension and tech needs! Sign-up opens 7:00am both days and closes at 10:30am for the day. Please be on time. Tech opens 7:00am and closes 10:30am both Saturday and Sunday. Please note some NEW tech rules regarding GoPro (or similar) cameras: - all Gopros mounted on a motorcycle must have a tether from the camera case to a point on the motorcycle. - helmet mounted Gopros are not allowed at all on track - in our novice group, Gopros are not allowed on track in the morning sessions - in the afternoon sessions they are fine as long as the above rules are followed. Mandatory riders meeting 8:20am both days, Intermediate riders are first on track at 9:00am. Absolutely NO revving of motors before 9am or after 5pm. Idling through the pits on your track bike is fine - but let's try to help NCM be good neighbors. There is a 103dB sound limit at 50' at NCM, and they do enforce this limit with a 2-strikes and you're out policy (you have one chance to fix the problem and if not then you cannot ride for the remainder of the event). 103dB at 50' is actually pretty loud, but if all you have is a pipe with no muffler you might be in trouble. Plan accordingly. The bathrooms and showers at NCM are now complete!!! Shogun will be there with the lunch truck for food - they do awesome food. They do not do breakfast - sorry. There is fuel available on site - see the track for that. The pumps take credit cards. Please keep your area clean and do not leave any race gas cans or tires when you leave. We must be out of the paddock by 7:00pm Sunday night. Any questions, please post up here.
Thanks for the post, this will be my first time at the track and this helps out a lot. The questions that i have are: do they have designated parking/setup location or we can post up anywhere ? Where is the check in location ? where is the tech inspection ? i mean all of this can be figured out when i get there but i would like to know in advance, just so that i dont have to rush setting up in the morning because this will be an 8 Hour drive for me.
Registration and Tech will be close to the STT Trailer and Trevors Rig.... As far as Parking goes its anywhere other than the garages if you rented one... Just don't pit along the gravel area between the garages and the Autocross lot...
And, the end (west, if I remember correctly) that is closest to the fuel pumps, are reserved RV paid parking, as that is the area that has power available....other than the garages.
THIS JUST IN! We will have Yamaha demo bikes at NCM, as well as Yamaha rental generators!!!!! And the weather looks killer!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!
And this just in......according to the NCM Motorsports website, the go cart track is now up and running. It's open until 7PM on Friday and Saturday evening. $20/8 minute session!
Also, do you guys use anything to track lap times? I have an older GoPro and it doesn't have any of the fancy GPS overlays etc.
