CR Road Racing Day?

[clone]

Count me in. I have been to both Mid-Ohio and Putnam and it was a blast to go fast.

[1fast5gp]

i will be very interested

[Brrcats]

I'm interested as long as the price is manageable, meaning the 120-150 range that has been brought up.

[hot_wire]

If I could bring out the Miata in novice class, I would be there in a second! This would be my first run on a road course (not counting a few summers of autox) so I might be really slow....

 

Are roll cages required?

 

I second what everyone else says about the price; the $100-$150 range would be great.

cages not required...just a normal seat belt and helmet.

Not to be a party pooper here but most of you should expect this to cost >$200 unless we do a private rental and have like 75 people guaranteed to attend.

 

Thats why Nelson was soo appealing to those of us who went last year at $120....and I think only 5 people showed up to that.

 

Maybe I'll be suprised and someplace like Putnam or Bluegrass will be cheaper to rent then I imagine. I was lucky enough to go to a private rental of Mid Ohio a couple years back. I think we had 60 cars total that day. Entry was $400 for a single day but for the amount of track time we got and the lack of traffic it was priceless. I'm fairly sure the host lost money on the deal due to lack of attendance.

I'm in.

 

If MrAutoX does not have a car by then, he will likely drive mine so count him in too.

EDIT: Delayed double post.

[Sparky]

Im in, any pricing updates?

[theweiser1]

Im in for sure as long as it is after March... have to get the car back together:)

 

 

Thats a preview of Bluegrass Motorsports Park....

God damnit, I need a RWD car!

 

You could buy mine. It's slow but I'm sure if you have the cash you could make it very very quick.

 

v8 and it's like an M3 just lighter, and a rag top.

[Qtr_pndr]

no, thats their rule and I have one as well:cool:

I'm not a big BMW guy. I am trying to land a Datsun Z car, but thanks for the offer.

[Radio Flyer1647545514]

Z's are sick, good luck finding one!

Is bluegrass even finished yet? I can almost promise that that place would be too pricey, just from what I remember seeing on their website. Seems like a very upscale kinda place.

There's a Lapping day there in May organized by the S2000 club that was like $225 for the single day. But I have no clue how many cars they're planning on having.

 

The track is VERY close to being done. The Pavement is down as you can see from the Youtube link above.

he was saying put a v8 in it and it will be like an m3 but lighter, silly

Forgot the shameless Firehead plug in my previous post.

 

If this does happen, I will be taking pics/vids (of the event in general, and then of specific cars [for a small fee of course]) if anyone's interested.

 

I will be getting a few different camera mounts in addition to my tripods, so I will have in-car mounting (I'm hoping) for caged and non-caged cars.

 

Now, let's make this happen!

I wish I had a V8 in my bimmer. I don't have the knowledge or the money to do it though.

[justinwebb]

Civics are pleanty capable. NASA runs an entire series (Honda Challenge) of Front Drive Honda's that are pretty quick. There was a local Honda Challenge car at one of my track days last year that was stupid quick.

Cool, just talk to me at the track and we will get something set up.
