Track day. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So, as many of you know I took liberty in planning the mega meet. But as that thread went on. It sounded like some of you would like a track day. I had talked to ORP to rent out their track in August for a day and it comes close to $9,000. If I could get a head count by liking this post. It would give me an idea of to either try and make this track day happen or plan something else for the mega meet.

Also I made a new thread just to talk about the track day. Ideas are always welcomed in the other thread.

Would the track day involve an area where we can practice donuts and figure 8's? Possibly a little drift course?

Uhhh. I don't think so. I've never been to ORP. Hopefully somebody who has could chime in.

Intetested, definitely in if costs are below $400

We could probably set aside an area of the parking lot. So long as we are not doing anything dangerous or stupif it probably wouldn't be a problem. Not sure though if it is specifically restricted in the rental agreement though.

i guess the most obvious difference between us and clubs like PCA, is the median income of the members. lol. i'd be down for anything around $200/person.

Fuzzysmith · 04-05-2014, 11:45 PM

I'm in if under $300. Single day track insurance is around $150/event, I think.

I'm in. The advantage of higher price is fewer cars on the track! Would much rather pay $400, and have half the cars!

Personally for a mega meet id like to go for a nice drive, throw down a tent, start a fire and slam some beers. Then wake up the next day with a hangover and then drive home cursing at my suspension everytime I hit a bump

Lol we could do that any day of the week. You plan the day. I'll be there to slam beers.

Also. We would need to get at least 30 people for it to be in the 300 range. And those people have to be deticated . I'll collect once it's all final and put down a deposit. To reserve the track once we get this more official.

Note: that 9000 doesn't include food service or any damage fees. Ie running over cones or taking out signs and junk.

Lol well just one of us would be nice. Heck we should just recruit one of the blazers and get them into a twin. Make them pay for everything.
