No cost just to come in and look around. Just sign a waiver upon entry. Enter through the tunnel near the end of the back straight, before turn three. Track opens at 3:30pm Sun, with runs from 6:00pm - 10:00pm. Monday 7:30am - 5:00pm

The requirements are your $275 and a Snell 90 rated helmet or higher. Sessions are 25 minutes long and you get 2 on Sunday and 4 on Monday. In-car instruction provided.

Call Mickey (540) 774-9301 for more details and to sign up. Hurry, the remaining spaces will fill up fast!

Allan, does "in car" instruction mean time with the instructor in YOUR car? I'd like to at least come Sunday night and check it out.

Yes, an instructor rides with you. When you demonstrate good knowledge of the driving line and good mastery of all the other stuff, you can go solo. Please stop by my garage space, I think I'll be in one of the spaces between 1 and 15. The event will run rain or shine.

Hey you don't have to just come and WATCH! Call Mickey, pay your $275 and DRIVE! You'll truly understand and appreciate the S2000's capabilities, and you'll be hopelessly hooked on track events.

JBoggs; there is no better way to finish off those worn tires. You'll be fine as long as it doesn't rain.
