Default Advanced Track Day - Thompson Speedway

My business partner, Rud Motorsports (Frank the BMW M-specialist) is hosting a track day at Thompson.

Price is $325, or get 10% off for coupon code mention "Billman".

The event is for experienced drivers only, so expect LOTS of track time as there is no novice or instructor group.

www.rudmotorsports.com, more info to follow.

Hi everyone! My name is Frank and I've worked alongside Billman for a long time. We have a motorsports organization called RUD Motorsports and we are hosting a full day event at Thompson Speedway on April 21st. The event is only open to drivers who have some track day experience. Without the need for novice or instructor run groups we can give MUCH more seat time for the same price!

I also wanted to extend an additional offer to any friend of Billman- 10% will be taken off the total at checkout by entering "BILLMAN" in the coupon code field!

Check out our website www.rudmotorsports.com to see all the rules and requirements, as well as a direct link to MotorsportReg to register. If you have any additional questions please feel free to PM me or email me at FrankC@rudmotorsports.com

Thanks we hope to see you at the event!

-Frank

Thank you for offering this to NY metro

Biggest question is do you require a rollbar?

This track requires all attendees to pass a broomstick test during tech inspection- so for most that will require a rollbar or a hardtop

Thanks for your interest! Hope to see you there!

Not always true, each club has different rules. It's not open wheel racing.

OEM hardtop will pass a broomstick test so that will be fine! Definitely try to make it out it's going to be a great day! Be sure to use the BILLMAN coupon code!

Thompson is a really good track for the S2000. Imagine the technical nature of NYST (although not quite to that level) but with better safety and facilities and that's Thompson. I'm not sure if I'll make it to this but those who do will be rewarded with a great time.

Not sure how it shows up for you guys but it's the track right below the front of my S in my sig.
