[trackbird]

Ok, we've discussed a track day before and lots of people said they were interested. We decided to combine with the National F-body Motorsports Event in 2005 and I showed up (I was the only one that wasn't already going that is). So, I have friends here in Columbus on a board www.trackaddicts.net and they have similar goals to us....tracktime. Last year they rented Gingerman and a good time was had by all. This year we were considering a bigger event (20 cars last year) and maybe a larger/more expensive track. We do not have prices on track rental (or we might just all show for an open track day), but we have started looking at the famous question of "where".

So, vote for your favorites and we'll see what we can work out for a frrax/trackaddicts track day (if you guys are interested....yes, I know it's "east coast", at least this time).

Feel free to post your preferences if you'd do more than one (vote then post). If we can pull it off, I'm for it.

Id be up for beaverun, summit or nelsons, but Im also trying to squeeze in NASA events this year, and I work every other weekend (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/bs.gif) Of course it seems like every NASA event this year is on a weekend I work so i'll be trying to do a lot of switching with collegues but if this event falls in to one of my weeks off Im in for sure. I know of another small private group trying to put together a track day this summer in the same region. I went to their event last year, great group of guys, it was well run but a very small event, like 10-12 cars (at beaverun). Of course the fact that it was small meant we all had to pay a lot but we had a wide open track aaaaall day long. It was great. Let me know if you want to keep it all F-bod or not, if you want I can refer them to this thread and see if they want to chime in. They've already done a great deal of the legwork on this kind of deal, the guy even created his own company (LLC?) for insurance purposes or something to be able to rent tracks with min risk etc. They were looking for a bigger group this year. It would sure cut the costs down a lot if we went for our own track rental vs open track day. Just thinking out loud. Since they've already done a deal with beaverun it would be a piece of cake. You can also just tell me to shut up.
