Renting a track soon

I usually rent a track once a year... Last year we had 8 cars and we had a blast. This year i thought about getting a larger count so I'm posting to see if any of the local MB guys interested. Most likely the track day will be in late NOV either on a Fri or SAT, but i will need to get a headcount before i pay the track a deposit to reserve it. We are going to have few clubs there as well so its going to be fun. We are going to have few M3's, E55's, LS1's, GTP's, maybe STi's etc....

So who is interested?

I moved it to 19th so i dont have to get stuck with a huge deposit. So no need for paying a deposit now.

The price remains the same because of insurance purposes. So if we got only 4 people its going to be $400 and if we got 20 people its going to be $2000. Its all due to the number of staff involved and insurance per car. I think two C32 AMG's are coming this Friday as well as Ferrari 355 and a bunch of nice cars.
