This looks like an open public events.... I'm very interested if there isn't going to be 536 cars there. Don't we a have a track rental so we can get alot of track time. I live 200 miles away and am more than willing to drive as long as I know my time will be spent on the track and not parked.

I did this a few years ago. There were maybe 50? cars there. It is well run and you are seperated into groups based on experience. They focus on safety bigtime. The track itself is a lot safer and less intimidating than Road America. I might do this again. There is a Holiday Inn just down the street, so its a good plan to overnight on Friday.

I live 200 miles from the track... an hour North of Detroit. I plan on spending the night before in a hotel so I can split up my driving abit.

Everytime I see a Gingerman post I almost wish I got a coupe. Guess I will just have to fly the Bird (Formula that is) one of these days.
