Default Anyone doing Gingerman Friday 8/4?

The track is having an all day open track event this friday.

I'll be taking the new motor out for a spin, anyone else thinking about it?

I'd be happy to show noobs the line while my car cools down between sessions...

Right-O.

The track is sponsoring it, my guess is no one had it rented for the day so they opened it up to at least make a few bucks.

I'll either be there Thursday night and Friday or just friday all day.

Depending on how many and what types of cars show up will determine if it's all day open track of if they separate into groups. Usually if any open wheel guys come we'll break up into sessions.

I got a reply, there are plenty of spots so I'm there. She didn't mention the cost in the message though.

9 am til dark (I'll probably head there by 10 am).

There is a Porsche club event over the weekend, so there should be lots of Porsches there Friday for us to mangle
