****** LATEST UPDATE ******
Okay everyone, I just talked to the track owner and finalized a few things, so here we go....
START TIME:
- Teching will start at 10:00 a.m.
- Racing will start at 11:00 A.M. and end at 6:00 P.M.
- There will be a spectator fee of $10 per spectator
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- The speed at the pits/parking area is 10 mph.... last time, we almost got kicked out because people kept racing in the pit area
- Please bring your own food or at least a snack. There is a Jack In The Box close by to the track. Unfortunately, there will be no food stand open at the track. However, we will have access to the barbecue grills if needed. Some of us will be bringing extra food and drinks.
- There will be NO RACE GAS at the track, so please bring some if you plan to use it.
- Please DO NOT FORGET YOUR HELMET (myself included)
Looking forward to seeing everyone there

Hey Mo,
Do you need a list of names for spectators? Besides the usual benz homies that are rolling up with us I have 4 friends that are comin up to check out the racing. If you need the names let me know. I told them about the spectator fee and that isn't a problem. Thanks!
I can't wait to see how everyone does! It's gonna be great!

I wish I could bring mine but she is only 19 months old.
There likely won't be many kids but im sure it would be fun for a father a son to spend the day at the track

Add me to the waiting list please.
Please put me on the waiting list. My car is finally done and tuned by Kleemann. I just need to round up a set of Mickey Thompsons before I head up there! Can I pay with cash if space allows?

There is no more waiting list, sign-up is now closed. We are up to 45 cars already and will be limited by insurance policy to a certain amount of cars. There is only one way, please check your PM.
