	Tired of getting shut-up of registration for driver's ed/track
events at
Lime Rock?  Wish you could get some laps in, especially on a SATURDAY?
Preferably when it's warm (as opposed to being snowed on)?

	Well, on Saturday, August 28 (a week from this Saturday),

	"The Connecticut Chapter of the Alfa Romeo Owners Club is pleased to
invite
you to our annual Driver's School and Practice.  In spite of escalating
track and insurance costs, we have done everything possible to keep the fee
increase as small as possible while still allowing us to impose a car limit
per day to maximize your track time.  For more information, please contact
Peter A. Lombardo at peterl@f40.com.

	"This year will be a one-day event only. We will continue our focus
on
classroom and track instruction for the less-
experienced drivers and practice sessions on the track for the
more-experienced veterans.  To maximize track time, all cars
must come to the track pre-tech. inspected. As is our custom, the first
group will be on the track at 9:00 AM sharp, the earliest that local
ordinances allow. AROC-CT has the reputation of running the smoothest and
safest track event around, and this year will be no different. We will have
paid comer workers to reduce down time between run groups.  Please join us
for this wonderful event.

	"Direct any questions (or anyone wishing to volunteer to help) to
Mario at
(914) 693-7426 evenings.  E-mail at
MFRMD@aol.com, or fax anytime at (914) 693-1636.

	"Agenda: Classroom instruction will be available to all drivers who
want
it, and is required for all less-experienced drivers. Selected driving
instructors using helmet intercoms for instant communication between the
driver and instructor will be available for individual in-car instruction.
Experienced drivers will be given open practice sessions, instructors
available.  Driver Requirements: You must be at least 18 years of age and
have a valid driver's license.  Helmets: Snell 1995 or later - we will check
for the sticker, so please be certain it's there.  Drivers of open or
targa-top cars are required to have face shields!  No motorcycle helmets
will be allowed!  Also, we reiterate that safety equipment (seat belts,
roll-bar coverage) must be identical for driver and front passenger.  Those
of you with open cars will need to have an SCCA-legal roll bar that extends
2 inches above both driver's and passenger's helmets - insurance rules no
longer allow cars with street roll bars onto the track.  Clothing: Long
pants and long-sleeved shirts; Cotton required, Nomex recommended. No open
shoes.  Minimum Ages: No person under the age of 18 shall be on the track or
in the hot pits. A parent or guardian must accompany all spectators under
the age of 18.
