NASA is our organization. I will run TT3 this year but, I don't think thier is any contingency for TT. I'll be at 11 to 1 so not to competitive yet. I would love to get into Spec Z which has pretty good support from Nissan I'm told.

Any Nissan racer can register with Nissan Motorsports and get discounted parts support, but time trials have never gotten much manurfacture support. Spec Z will have a similar payout to the Nissan SCCA program, but also receives help from BFG tires.

Just noticed your from CO. Shoot me a message if you make it out to MMP for any events this year.

I've raced at MMP many times and wish there were any SCCA road race events there this year!

Here's a link to the latest Nissan Motorsports catalog:

https://www.nissanusa.com/nismo-web/...talog-2012.pdf

It's got the toll-free ph # on the front page to call for more info. Lots of cool parts to check out as well.

I'm not going to be mean or political here, but NISMO USA .

This is due to the way Nissan runs their financial year, April through the end of March. The SCCA Majors season starts in January, so they released some details early. Still, it costs nothing to register and IMO is worth doing each year.

BTW- NISMO is Nissan Motorsports International, but each regional area (North America, Asia, Europe, etc) has the ability to do their own autonomous program. While the North American program has a very small operating budget, the very fact it exists at all is good news for Nissan racers.
