I've been getting a few PMs pushing for a Famoso rental, but like I said guys...... Famoso is booked starting the 2nd weekend of February all the way until October. So, our only real chance seem to be the 2nd weekend of February.

I can try to rent the track on Saturday, February 14th from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. (should be good weather and good DA). I'm thinking this will end up being a small volume rental, so we will only be limited to 10 cars and we'll only have 1 lane....

I'm starting an un-official list of interest:

1) rarfinancial
2) Juicee63
3) sticky2
4) MB_Forever

Please add your name to the list if you're interested.

Thanks.

I figured I'd give it a try and see if we can get enough interest to do this last rental until we our next major event in December 2009 and then followed by January 2010

Sounds great to me, 6 more people should not be too tough

Personally, I like one lane and less cars, I don't feel I need to rush and can take my time nailing my setup.

Not a bad way to end the season, as I'll have a supercharger by December

It sure would be

How do you know the time frame would be 4-8 pm? Is that as late as they would let us go for a night run?

Yes..... the only time, they will do 6 p.m. to midnight is in late March/April when the temps in the morning are over 100 and at night around 80 F.
