Hank,
I was under the impression you have run with RTR and had a bad experience. It appears this is not the case. I would suggest attending an event as a participant, then revisting this thread as you have made statements that become contrary to your experience within the group (and maybe not). The formulation of your initial thread is "argumentative" as I stated and there is nothing wrong with that. If you feel it is "fact" then this back and forth bantering is a waste of computer space. Really interesting to get an external point of view on the RTR DE program even if I dissagreee with the comments.
As far as Club Racing, if you have a driver log and your prior license a provisional license can be obtained with Rookie status. If 944 spec is too slow, try GTC1,2 or GTR. Winning FTD at the Glen this year was 1:52 full course. I think that would be fast enough considering mid pack on Rolex runs closer to 2mins. Comparison with pro racing series is more than reasonable. We have plenty of pro drivers show up to DE events and club races. Really too many as it makes club racing podiums even harder.
Like I said. Come out try an event. If submit a log book to the registrar ahead of time, you may be surprised what can be accomplished through proper channels.
