    wondering if the list that is up is complete. Is there no NOLA for 2017 or are there still events to be listed? Anyone have any ideas?

    I was wondering the same thing. Love me some NOLA.
    I know Trackapalooza is doing NOLA at least once this year.

    Yeah, I kinda figured this would happen. STT doesn't draw well at NOLA for some reason. I love NOLA! So I went to NOLA's website and it looks like they're doing their own track days this year kinda like Hallett.

    NOLA is 10 hours each way for me, but I make it a point to go at least once a year.
    Plus I bring home a big cooler of shrimp.

    Nola has been doing their own days. For blackfriday they had it for $100 a day.

    Sorry that I missed that deal! NOLA is closest to me, so I am really hopeful that STT will get some dates added.

    I expect to do the February midweek date, but gonna wait to close to the event to see if the weather will at least be decent.

    It is not considered good form to link to another trackday provider's site.....

    Is NCM a really good track? How does it compare to NOLA or Barber? I'm interested in making that drive to do that track maybe this year.

    NOLA and NCM are VERY similar, the surface of NCM is MUCH better. OF the two, I'd take NCM anytime. The only time I like nola is in FEB and DEC :)

    Yes, it's VERY good. It flows well. Front straight is well...straight, for about 9 miles (so it seems), then you have 2 back straights that aren't really straight, but you stay WOT.
