Default East coast tracks I can run

I discovered this forum(the r&c part) a couple of weeks and it's making me want to hit a racetrack. I'm 5'7" and I'd easily pass the broomstick test, but ive read few tracks allow stock s2000's to run without an aftermarket roll-bar. Can anyone Point me where to track my car?

The east coast is big. Are you from Mid-A, Florida, New England? Let us know and we'll help you out.

It's not only the track, it's also the organization you run with. You'll need to look into both.

NASA Florida and Central Florida SCCA PDX groups will let a stock S2000 run no broomstick test.

Most organizations will let you run Summit Point's Shenandoah Circuit (tight, technical, fun 2.0 mile) with the stock roll hoops.

Look into Gripfest at NCCAR. Its in a couple weeks and they don't require a roll bar for the S. Its a time trial style event but it would be a good intro into track stuff.

I run with Track Daze as an instructor at VIR. They allow the factory hoops with the convertable up. We are going this Saturday and Sunday. Track Daze is one of the best drivers school I have run with, let me know if you have any questions. Nicholas blackwolfcabins@gmail.com

I thought VIR itself didnt allow convertibles without a rollbar to run...
