A few more details....

The road course will be at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, AL and the hot laps on the 'oval' will be at Talladega Super Speedway.

Since the Mercedes-Benz club is organizing it (in conjuction with Lotus Club), you'll need to join MBCA to be able to run on track (insurance requirement). It's only $45 to join for a year.
