Also, please add COM Sports Car Club to the schedule. They'll be at Summit Point Monday and Tuesday, April 29-30, after the NASA Saturday and Sunday event. There is typically very few drivers who make the trip down from New England, where the club is based out of, for this event. Only 27 people attended the event last year. Plan on a huge amount of track time if you sign up with them. They also have a time trial on the afternoon of the second day.
You need a proper roll bar (stock hoops don't cut it) to run with COM in any convertible.

sooo, how does one go about getting invited to an instructor clinic?
I been doing track events since 2006 (when I was 19), and been in HPDE3/Solo for the last 3 years.
I really enjoy teaching and helping people progress. Let me know how you guys that are current instructors did it. thanks!

So after emailing a few of the local clubs it seems I will need recommendations.
Typically the recommendation a track day organization wants is from one of their instructors that's ridden with you. Once you become an instructor with pretty much any organization the others will accept you for their instructor clinic.

The cage looks good. 
Be sure and get all the interior and especially any floorboard work done before you put in the rest of the cage. It becomes very difficult to work below the dashboard once the cage is in.

Thanks! I don't have too much to do on the inside. It will have a passenger seat in it so any electronics or fire system will stay mainly in the trunk. Aside from washing everything and painting the floor it should be fairly straightforward.
