Hmm this would be quite a bit of fun but the always difficult task of finding the time off. How many people are gonna be doing the ground school the night before?

Getting this going is awesome... Right now I am a no go, but probably next time. Thanks for putting everything together though. Getting people on the track is the best thing you can do in the car community.

Jason mentioned something about if we done enough auto cross, we can waive the Thursday night seminar.

You'll have to ask Cascade Sports Car Club if that's possible. I think people should go regardless even if 90% of it is stuff you already know because that 10% may be very helpful.

Thanks. I was hoping that there would be a nice little turnout for our cars, thus me creating it. :)

There are some new to track days and HPDE so I'm sure there will be at least a couple.

I just might do this.

I requested the time off. Gah, wish I could get some more parts on in time though. Oil cooler yet to be ordered and springs just chillen I my garage :/

Might be a stupid question but if you have two people in a car and share driving time do you have to pay double or would $210 cover both of us?

If I remember correctly you pay per car but you should email them to ask. You both will need to take the training class the night before if you've never done a track day before so maybe if it is pay by car they will let you both sit in the class.

200 bucks gets you all day at a race track going over 100mph. Much more fun than being stuck in 2nd gear at autocross doing 40mph and much better than going in a straight line while ruining the clutch! The only thing that may be better is hillclimb or rallyx if the car doesn't fly off a cliff and you get many runs in or you don't ruin a fender from bottoming out on a mud hole.
