Arrow Mazdaspeed Corral at Limerock, May 23-26th, 2008 (Grand-Am Series)

Hey Guys,

For those of you who don’t know about the Rolex GT series which as numerous 20B powered Mazda RX-8s from Speedsource, Racers Edge, Goldwin Brother and Team Spencer. This year we will be holding our 2nd Annual Mazdaspeed Corral, sponsored by Mazdaspeed and put together by Marlon Sumlin of Cleveland 6 Club, Ray Gonzalvo of Mazda6club, and NYRA/CTRA/NJRA.

Last years event was great and i would like to get the ball rolling on this years event early to ensure we have sufficient parking. Last year we had between 100-150 Mazda vehicles (mainly miatas) but we also had RX-7's, RX-8's Mazda protege, Mazda 3 and Mazda 6's.

If you wish to find out about how to request tickets before they go on sale to the public follow the instructions on my website at http://nyrotary.com/Pages/Mazda_Corr...eRock_2008.htm

This will be offered on a first come first serve basis. The more applicants we receive the more space we can hold at this year’s event.

Some features of the event

1. Mazda only designated parking
2. Catered Lunch/Drinks
3. Three laps around LIME ROCK Racetrack (ONLY FOR MAZDAS)
4. Meet and Greet with the Mazda Rotary Race teams (so far on board is Speedsource and Racer's Edge, more to come!!!)
5. Discounted multi-day passes
6. Free Mazdaspeed Merchandise (based on last year’s program)

So please jump on this as fast as you can, visit www.nyrotary.com to keep track of the progress of all the Mazda RX-8's. (Direct link http://nyrotary.com/Pages/racingevents.htm)

Hope to have a big rotary showing this year!!!!!!!!!













DRIVING ON THE TRACK (They put the rotarys in the front because they know we like to speed)








Best Regards,

Jason, NYRA President

This sounds like a lot of fun. Even if they're parade laps...it's still LIME ROCK. Everyone has gotta start somewhere.

Hey roan, email me the info requested on the NYRA webapge. Tickets are available on a first come first serve basis. We will go down the list of names in the order they are received.

It will be a lot of fun, on top of the rotary mazda race teams we will also have meet and greets with other race teams like Tripoint Engineering, Tindol Motorsports and BK Motorsports to name a few.

Last year for 4 days it was $75, but you can buy each day independently, some were $15 others were $25. Depends on which day you want to go. If $$ is tight, then just go for the main event. AS SOON as i get pricing i will post it up (NOTE THESE ARE LAST YEARS PRICES)

Last year's prices don't look like that much for the whole event. Since I only live about 30mins. from the track, I'd be a fool to miss this one.

Its a pace car deal the day of the race, but its very limited. Last year they had a special sign up through mazdaspeed for 50 peeps. The CT Miata club rolled deep and took many of the spots. We gotta sign up guys, get that info over to Jay!
