Default Gingerman Raceway - Track Day

My next track day is going to be at Gingerman Raceway in South Haven, MI. It will be run by the National Autosport Association (NASA). Since Gingerman is the best beginner track around (ie safest) and NASA has some of the best instructors, I thought I would post up and see if anyone else is interested in going. You can find the details here: http://www.nasamidwest.com/. It's $199 for 1 day and $309 for 2 days. The 1 day is a bit pricey, but the 2 days really is a deal. You need to be a member but you can get a free membership with a referral from an existing member (me).

Damn. Did you even get out of the car?

Trying to decide if I'm going to get room at the red roof or if I'm going to camp.

The TnTs are really the best value for track time. It is a little creepy when you realize the ambulance is parked with no one in it. Something to think about when you are out there!

The weekend schedule isn't out yet but I think it's usually 5 or 6 20 minute sessions per day.

Well I renewed my NASA membership now lets see if I can register myself for this. I am not acustomed to attending such a formal / organized event.

What is the story on tech inspection for my car? Do I download thier form and do my own or do they or an authorized shop need to look it over?
