***"RINGIN' WITH THE STARS"*** - Track Day - 09/15/08 - Roebling Road

Sound like fun?

We're getting some level-headed people together to enjoy a day of fun at Roebling Road. Since there will be a strict limit of only 25 participants, you'll have the opportunity to stretch the legs of your ride on Monday, September 15th and have as much track time as you can stand (4 to 5 hours easily)!

Pre-requisites for "Ringin' with the Stars":

AMG or Audi vehicles only.
You must have prior track experience.

Price will be $225/driver.

More details here:

Registration forms will be available next week. Please PM me your email address and we'll forward the details at that time.

This one will be different. AMG and MBUSA are not organizing this event. Rather, several enthusiasts are putting this together for the benefit of our fellow AMG and Audi brethren.

I've received many, many inquiries on this event both here and on the AMG Private Lounge. Registration is expected to open next week - I'll post details - and participation will be on a first come, first served basis.

As Chauss has noted, Roebling Road is approximately 20 miles outside Savannah, GA. This is the track Motorweek uses for a lot of their vehicle evaluations during winter months.

At this point, we've even got one gent planning on driving his C43 down from Pittsburgh to join us for the day.

***BUMP***

Join your fellow AMG and Audi enthusiasts for a day of fun at Roebling Road Raceway (20 miles outside Savannah, GA).

http://www.roeblingroad.com/

We have booked Monday, September 15th for our event. Spaces are limited to just 25 drivers total, which will allow plenty of room to enjoy the track with minimal traffic or hassle while providing a wide safety margin for each other and our cars. You can expect to get between 4 to 5 hours of track time for the nominal registration cost of just $225.00 – a bargain as you know.

While we have organized track days previously at facilities in Alabama, South Carolina and Louisiana, this will be our first joint event with the Audi folks. It will be an outstanding opportunity to get to know your fellow performance enthusiast in a fun and easy setting. Most will drive over on Sunday and we’ll stay at a local hotel (details will be forwarded in the registration packet). You will be responsible for having your car pre-inspected and ready to go on track day. This is not a “Driver’s School” and no formal instruction will be provided, hence the requirement that you must have previous road course experience to participate in this event.

This is the ideal place to explore some of the performance of your AMG!

Registration packets are available and will be sent via email. Please send a PM with your email so the registration packet can be forwarded.

All the track events they hold in the South East are 1st rate. I have no doubt this event will follow that trend. Chappy and the other guys who organize these things do a fantastic job.

I believe I can make it - keeping the fingers crossed.

Sounds good. I'll probably head down mid-morning on Sunday (the 14th). That way, we can down a few cold ones Sunday afternoon and enjoy some R&R time before hitting the track Monday.

Make sure to register asap since there are only 25 spots.
