Texas Racing?

Does anyone know of any place in North Texas that does road racing? Once I finally get my Z06 I want to get some track time in (a long time dream of mine), but I can't seem to find any info on the internet about LEGITIMATE racing events. I found one Dallas street racing website that appeared to be a bunch of young guys (17-22 yrs) with Civics. Being that I'm not interested in Civic's or getting arrested, that wont do.

Strangely enough, I cant even find time trial types of events in TX. I see LOTS of events in California, but TX seems devoid of any races. Any help/info would be appreciated!

One thing you might try, T-O6, is to go to your 'MyZ06Vette' page and activate your '10 closest members' section. That would at least give you an idea of guys close to you. You might then try pm'ing them if you don't get any response here.

Hmmmm.... I guess that might fall under the "try the most obvious approach" category.

Yeah I should have thought of that.

Here is a nereby club you might want to contact. http://www.cowtownvettes.org/, this club is very active with time trials and high speed autocrosses. At least one of that club's members has a C5R type race car and several others have highly modified track cars and they run at http://www.motorsportranch.com/ quite often

YEP hook up with your nearest Corvette NCCC club. THey will be into auto-cross and high speed events. That will get you started off correctly.
