You want to drive without paying and drive somebody else's car while your at it. You're joking right? You're not going to get a lot of takers with that proposal.

Track is $349 helmet is about $99 at Autobachs no hotle needed so this track is actually not that expensive since it's local. We spent more in Laguna Seca last January because we had to stay for 2 nights in a hotel.

WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?? I am talking about going with my dad in his C6 and we switch off rather than he bring his c6 and paying $500 and me bringing my G and pay $500...1 grand is not worth it!

Strtsk8r321,
I have been asked that questions in the past, but never seem to remember the asnwer to that. Speeventure does allow special arrangements, but I forget it's either based on car (pay for 1 car, many drive) or based on heads (pay per person, share 1 car). I thought I also remember it not being exactly 50/50 (assuming 2 person, or 2 cars) ... there are some miscl. charges. I will e-mail the folks at SpeedVentures and let you know once I find out. But really, there's no free lunch here per se. Generally, you are expected to pay to play.

btw, you can always share one helmet with your dad. Super Autobacs has a suitable helmet for $99. Track fee is currently $340. I'm looking to get us all a small discount if we have enough people going, but no guarantees there.

Yeah, that's a tough one. You'll also quickly learn a lot of these track day occur on weekdays (not limited to SpeedVentures). Weekends are typically more expensive to operate and hard to come by for club races. Once in a while, we do have Saturday and Sunday events - typically at Buttonwillow or Willow Springs.

Are you sure you'd don't fee a case of pneumonia July 21?

the thing is, if it was in the middle of the week, it wouldn't be that big of a problem. but the way the navy works, if you ask for a friday off, you have to ask for three days because they will count saturday and sunday. it's retarded, i know, but i didn't make that policy!
