Considering trying to make Memphis this year. I checked out the site, and have read around here a bit, but there are some things I'm trying to get square on.
Honestly, all the "see this page, see that page" stuff just runs together. What I'm looking to find out: 1. When do I have to be there to register (plan on AX, RR, and maybe TT)? 2. Does any of the lapping interfere with the AX, or vice-versa? 3. Is the TT for anything beyone bragging rights time only? Curious more than anything 4. Like equipment... what does that mean? I have a Sparco Evo seat, but I use a stock passenger seat, will this pose a problem for anyone? 5. What are the safety requirements for the road course? 6. Out of curiousity, would I be a Novice? I have open-track experience, Summit Point and Nelson Ledges. I know that folks like me have been "noviced" by different clubs and then harassed extensively because we are used to making a car move. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) 7. How hard on brakes is MMP? I know it's got a long front straight, but I also know turn 1 is really quick which shouldn't pound brakes. |

Why? Is the track in a bad area? Are there no gates? I think I'd generally feel safer with my stuff locked in a race facility than out in the open in hotel parking lot....

It's a bit out of the way and not real well populated (nobody would be seen out messing around there). And, they hired security for the parking lot so everyone parked together and we had people watching stuff. |

I did not ask about RV parking, but relative to trailer rigs, here is the track manager's response: Bock: We do not have overnight security but they can leave rigs parked overnight at their own risk. It would probably be just as safe here as a hotel parking lot.
