Yeah, I think doing a full track day with 30-40 cars, that would be perfect. That way there is always someone running on the track, while others are able to test-n-tune their rides between runs and during cool downs. most optimum use of time, and hopefully not a ton of people wait, and waiting, and waiting.

I drove by the event yesterday around 2 and kept on driving. Holy Hell that line was crazy.

Wasn't exactly what I was expecting.

If I remember correctly, it costs them a little over a grand to operate the track for a day, so they make nothing until that number is hit. When they did it for our car club, they charged us $10 a head to get in, and we did a picnic there, so they didn't have to man the concession stand.

They were more than happy with how things turned out and are willing to host another event like that. If we were to schedule ahead of time and offer $15-20 to get in, I'm sure they'd be willing to do that for the two clubs (or more) to have a private track day.

If y'all want me to start feeling them out about it, let me know and I can get some specifics. Are y'all talking about doing it soon or after the cold passes?

Time/weather/holidays are going to be the huge factors right now in planning an event.
