Moroso track rental...

I'm going to rent the track one night coming up with some other MB's and BMW's and Vipers to get some good runs in the E55..... I went last night and only got 4 runs, test and tune is the worst...

Anyone want to join in? 6-10 cars total, cost is about $225 to $250 per car...

Run as much as you want from 5pm to 10pm.... they prep the track REALLY well for rentals, you'll get the BEST times ever....

We'll have the track to ourselves...... Like to do it soon while the weather is decent....

PM me, and let me know asap and I'll check some dates...

ok, here are the dates:

feb 2nd
feb 7
feb 9

here are the numbers:

6 cars: $260/car
7 cars: $250/car
8 cars: $240/car
9 cars: $235/car
10 cars: $230/car

you can bring up to 4 friends/crew per car....

to book this, I have to pay up front, so in order to avoid no-shows and me getting stuck with a rather large bill, I'll need deposits this week to book...

I've got 5 people from the M5 board ready to go, since we can only have 10, it will be the first 9 who can give me a deposit....

runs are from 5pm to 10pm..... we should arrive early for tech and setup.... probably best to get there at 4pm or so..... sometimes they'll let you start early.....

it's great, last time out with my Viper, if I botched the launch, I would stop, back up and try again..... without having to even go around...

Any weekend days available for rental? Man I'd love to come, but could only do it on the 9th or after. Minor surgery is gonna have me on the bench the first few days of February.

the costs for weekend rental are $$$$$$$$ since they're for major events.... if you can't make this one, I'm sure we'll do it again....

If anyone has any questions about this rental, please contact me directly at info@dragtimes.com, don't call Moroso. This is a private track rental, not a HUGE DragTimes.com event.

Moroso has gotten a few calls about people asking questions about the "DragTimes.com" event Feb 9th.....

I'm pretty sure all the spots are filled, but you can PM me if you're still interested....

thanks

Hi to all going to Moroso on Wednesday, and on Thursday for the track rental with Fikse

Weather is shaping up really well - unfortunately not quite 50's but still low enough in the mid 60's. Early Thursday morning at 7am looks like it will be the best - as long as the dewpoint is not too high making the track a bit slick.

Really would love to be there, but unfortuantely will be in San Antonio. Cant wait for the reports. The LSD on my CLS55 is almost broken in so I am getting ready to join you guys next time out.

Have a blast and I will be thinking of you boys screaming down the track -
