Are co-drivers not required? It doesn't sound like a racing license is required. The Tire Rack One Lap of America is definitely on my bucket list, but this sounds like a nice warm up to that event. These are the rules for that event:

Rules haven't been flushed out yet; nonetheless, I'm definitely doing it. Been wanting to do OLoA for a few years now, but struggled to justify the 5k cost and time off without being competitive or having a decent ride. And with a full NASA calendar plus my 4 month baby, doesn't look like I'll be able to do it for a few years, so this is the next best thing.
I've asked for co-driver clarification as well, and how that impacts the cost ($1500 for 4 track days and hotel+food is affordable, especially if it can be split between 2 for a marginal amount more).
Hopefully, it stays close to OLoA rules, since I know those very well. Already lining up event sponsorship applications for up to 50 Florida companies. Would be great to knock off $500 in ad money.
